FSG.. looking to sell?

And, having pruned the squad and minimised the chances of scoring any goals, where is this 'move on' going to take the club? Into the top four??
Are you suggesting that Carroll leaving has seriously undermined our chances of scoring goals?

I'm ignoring Bellamy and Maxi because they seemed to have had their minds made up about moving early on.
 
Rodgers should have identified someone younger and better than Clint Dempsey in the first place. He can't complain about the owners having fucked him over on this, as any reasonably person would have fucked him over too. Clint Dempsey is destined to be a shit substitute at a medium sized club, and people will shudder to think what he'd have been at this one. Meanwhile Andy Carroll will become a hero.

In any case all the rest of the criticism aimed at our cunt owners were all valid two days ago, so it's a bit cuntish to have kept them bottled up and then vent them now in one go. The owners were cunts for not sacking Hodgson after his six games, and for allowing him to buy poulsen and konchesky. They've remained cunts ever since.

From my perspective it's more important to know whether Rodgers is on the road to becoming one.
 
we've got a talented young manager and we have some fantastic young talents starting to hit the first team and have added to it by buying great young prospects, don't know whats the deal with all the negativity but from where im sitting the future looks bright

A talented young manager, who apparently has been lied to by the owners, and is probably feeling pretty fucking disgruntled right now. Perfect way to start a relationship, eh?
 
Jeebus. I don't know which ones of you have merely been co-opted by the aliens or which ones are aliens already.
 
You know fuck all fuckwit. But carry on deluding yourself
Look, if you insist of over reacting and hinting about all sorts of dark secrets that you can't tell the lads then so be it. But carry on making a spectacle of yourself.
 
Sky generation.
Everyone has to be like Man Citeh or its sack the board.
Like thats sustainable.

It isn't being like Man City when we're talking about refusing to pay an extra million for a player that will score goals in a team desperately short of them. It is common sense.

In a team that just got shut of 4 goalscorers there was no budget for one proven striker.

BURN THE LIZARD SCUM.

The thing is, there *must* have been a budget at some stage, hence BR's confidence up to the day of the transfer window closing that perhaps 2 forwards would be brought in. It is very peculiar.
 
I dont think these owners should make us a more attractive proposition to potential buyers/investors so they can sell for a profit.
They should be looking to make us less attractive and less profitable so they can keep us and lose loads of money.
Surely spending 100m every summer would do that?

He's been lied to. Otherwise Carroll would have stayed.

I'm not over reacting you don't know the half if it that's all. Don't believe me though I'm really not arsed.
 
Would this thread be here if Dempsey was part of our squad this morning? Fulham demanded 20% more for this player to sell to us and I'm glad we passed on this.
 
And we have spent about (edit) 50m net over 4 transfer windows since FSG took over. That's spending at the same kind of level we might expect during the Moores ownership.

Someone told me yesterday that Villa had 5m accepted and when we spoke to Fulham they told us 10m.
Now I dont know if thats true or not. But im unwilling to believe either spurious argument wether it suits my standpoint or not mate.

I just dont think we would rip the rug out from under our manager. It makes no sense.
And Rodgers has already evidenced that CM was his priority not goalscorers (he only had ONE at Swansea) he also has evidenced that he sees Morgan as better back up for HIM than Carroll. So I dont get the issue.
If Rodgers comes out and says hes been fucked over the all bets are off, but im not buying into the usual bullshit scouse rumourmill that is ALWAYS fucking wrong.
 
so many of you are way too serious, especially given that you're getting all wound up over something you have no influence over

😡😡😡😡😡😡

Read what Rodgers said Andy. It's obvious as fuck he has been dicked over. This has fuck all to do with rumour mills.

I don't think he's going to come out and say that. If anything, he's probably mindful of what happened when Rafa went down that road. However, he apparently did reveal, off the record, to a number of local journos yesterday that he'd been mislead about the business that would be done by FSG. We'll see how much of that percolates into the public arena.

I think his comments from yesterday suggest at the very least, there were massive problems in internal communication. He was very confident of business being concluded on two forwards. So much so that he did the thing he said "I would be stupid" to do, by letting AC go without a replacement. Indeed, we accepted a *worse* deal for AC than that which was fucking offered by West Ham weeks ago. Sullivan must be laughing his tits off at us.
 
I said about 6 months ago when these rumours surfaced it was most likely the case that we were seeking a minority partner whose funds would be used to finance a stadium, since it's not possible to borrow the entirety of the money. That's still the case now.

Which could be the case. Letting Carroll go without bringing in other options, especially after what Rodgers has said publicly, makes no sense at all though. Absolutely none.
 
Carroll staying would have made no difference. BR made it clear he didn't want to use him anyway, so he was just sitting in the bench costing us a fortune.

If anything we should have kept Kuyt or Maxi

He also made it clear he'd be mad to let him go without other options coming in
