As per Alans post - a new thread

Deron · 08-08-2006, 16:37

Well it took us a month and a half to fill the last thread and the season hasn't even started yet. I reckon we'll be filling them in under a month.

If you cut out the arguments then I reckon your threads could last months

The rising costs of this alleged new stadium must be impacting on our finances. the cost has doubled and i'd be surprised if it gets built now. but it's catch 22 we need a bigger stadium to compete with utd/arsenal etc but don't seem able to raise the funds needed

Well they must have sorted out something...as they had a deadline to prove they had funding.

Its very worrying, nevermind the fact that, even if we do build it, it doesnt even bring us up to the capacities of Arsenal or United. We really just need a big buyer to come in for us who has the capital to help our club reach its full potential.

I remember there were rumours about the Craft family being interested and that Parry went to a patriots game to meet them.

He said it was to see how a successful franchise is run. He didn't learn a lot then??

It's a shame nothing came of that as they have billions.

Arsenal have done it by gambling on their future fortunes. It could blow up very badly for them should the team take a downward turn. The Liverpool Board are trying to get the money together through sponsorships, naming rights and a few loans but without mortgaging our future. Unfortunately, it may be we can raise enough that way

That's a bit of a crap thread title mate.

SSN reporting that Traore has signed for Charlton, no confirmation on price yet though.

EDIT: 3 year deal for �2m!

From hence forth all slagging off of the board and R Parry must stop !!!

He must be a flipping genius to get Charlton to spend that much on Traore

That is until we learn Charlton bid �4.7M and Parry hard-balled them out to �2M

I can remember some people on this thread saying the same sort of things about Murphy

Its up to �2m depending on appearances for us, trophies he helps us win (

), & Int caps.

To be honest I think he will do quite well for us. For you he had to win you the Champions League & Prem, for us he just has to help us finish in the top half of the table.

Not much chance of that happening as he plays for Mali

I agree with you, he isnt good enough for a top team(not meaning to sound patronising), but he has put in some decent performances for us at times and I hope he does well there. Of course he has also put in some really bad performances, but maybe under less pressure at Charlton, this wont be the case.

john316 · 08-08-2006, 17:36

Parry would have been prosecuted for selling him for �4.7m

saltysam · 08-08-2006, 17:47

Traore-CL winner (hacked one off the line at 3-3) & was one of our longest serving players. good luck

Guest 2564 · 08-08-2006, 20:27

I think Traore is young enough that he could still fulfil the potential that brought him to Anfield. He has good pace and a good tackle on him , he works hard in isn't afraid to go forward and overlap- all he needs to work on is his positional sense and much more importantly his concentration levels as this is what has cost him during his bad performances. Good luck to him.
