If they do that, then i would be more than happy for us to compete in the transfer market etc with money that we have earned, rather than thrown at us. If that means being a mid table side, or just trying to compete to get back in the champions league then so be it.
Liverpool are big enough to earn the revenue they need to compete. Smaller clubs need money thrown at them - Chelsea, City etc. Should the new owner rid the club of debt, Liverpool will be on the road to recovery.
On the upgarde of Anfield - how much could they it extend by?

I'm not his biggest fan by a long stretch, but the witch hunt over a perfectly legal tackle is just another example of the press looking to put the boot in on us at every possible chance.
In the semi final of the FA Cup, when John Terry won the ball cleanly, got kicked by Milner straight after, was then booked by the ref and after the game had to put up with claims that he should've been sent off, you were backing Terry were you? Because I don't remember seeing anyone on here who didn't think Terry should have been off.
Of course it's all an anti-Citeh witch hunt. Nothing to do with two broken legs and a kung-fu kick through someone's chest in the space of a few months.
I have to retract what I said about De Jong barely winning the ball. The only angle I'd seen the ball barely seemed to move. I've just managed to see a clip again and he did win the ball and divert it to a Citeh play, so in that it was a "good" tackle. My problem with De Jong's challenges are simply that he goes in to take man and ball each time.

Easily 15k
They could do an OT style rebuild of the Anny road and having the road go under the stand.
Pretty sure the club owns the houses at the back of the main stand which have just be left to ruin so that could lead to them adding to that.

Chelsea had an income of £149m to Liverpool's £122m when Liverpool won the CL on 2004/05.
The following figures are in Euros:
In 2007/08 Chelsea 268.9 Arsenal 264.0 Liverpool 210.9 2006/07 Chelsea 283.0 Arsenal 263.9 Liverpool 198.9
For the last season Chelsea just edged Liverpool. Obviously last season was slightly different because Chelsea got knocked out of the first round of the knock out stages and Liverpool went into the Europa League when they didn't make it out of the group stages.
But I know you mancs and the scousers have a "You suck me and I'll suck you" relationship.

They're getting the building work done for free, are they? They're going to fill a 60,000 seat stadium with the squad they have and not have to significantly strengthen the side?

Of course they're not going to get it done for free. You being silly now, petal. It would be cheaper than building a new stadium though, no? And yes, the vermin probably would still fill it with the current squad. But the takeover is all about clearing the debt and making funds available, not Abramovich / Mansour funds, but funds all the same.
