You can't publish emails 'around' a letter you fucking tit.
Tell Andy Heaton not me you biff.
Honestly thought the club was worth loads more than that... but just looked up the mancs and they've slipped from a market cap of around 2bn to around 1.6. So it's the kind of offer you'd go in with for a club that hasn't been as successful recently, has a smaller ground and also isn't in the CL I guess.
Either way, I don't think the lizards would chop out for any less than a billion.

Isn't that called the City of London, where they're taking everyone for a ride!
I'll get my coat.
Do you call the last five years stability? Change after change after change after change. They changed everything they could change more than once. I do hope that they now will let Klopp build up the club together with a DoF and a sporting director. A DoF and a sporting director that other clubs, managers, owners and players respect.
We need stability but so far FSG isn't the right owner if we want that.
Two main topics of conversation on the site this morning:
Big Trouble in Lille;
China.

Hahahahaha
So explain the roles and hierarchy here;
What is a DoF and Sporting Director and whats' their difference?
How do you measure their success?
What happens when they disagree with Klopp?
What would be their salaries?
Who are the likely contenders and can we get them?
Didn't Klopp say he wanted the first and last word on transfers, so how would a prospective DoF and Sporting Director deal with that?
What does Barry Hunter do, our Chief Scout? That needs looking in to I say.
- A DoF acts like a chief scout and talks to the manager every day. He or she also organize the football bit. A sporting director do all the negotiations with other clubs and do the football economics bit.
- How successful we are when it comes down to signing and selling players and the stability between the manager, the DoF and the sporting director.
- They will of course disagree about a lot things and when it happens then it comes down to what they disagree about. If it is a financial thing then the sporting director have the last say and if it is a football bit then the manager have the last say.
- I don't have a clue but it would be a lot cheaper than splashing out £32.5m on someone like Benteke.
- The contender for the DoF should be someone Klopp want because he will talk to him or her every day. The sporting director someone that is respected by the manager and the DoF. DoF candidates.....Hamann, Hyypiä or Fowler. Sporting director, don't have a clue.
- It would be no problem if it someone Klopp want and respect.
- I doubt that even Barry Hunter himself know what his job is.
Would being bought by the chinese state be the equivalent of a sugar daddy or would we be worse off? It seems that chelski, psg and city were bought by sugar daddies as dick swinging contests, and even the later two being under the guise of state purchases, would the chinese go down the same route or see us as just a minor investment that they're happy to extract 25-50mill a year from?
"...organize football bit", what does that mean? Why does he (the DoF) need to speak to the manager everyday? This could be the hierarchy, Owner gives Sporting Director (SD) a budget. SD tells manager this is budget. Manager tell Chief Scout (CS) to find players that particular roles and are available around budget. CS comes back to manager with list. Manager approves list gives it to SD to go and get. No need for a DoF. right?
Well, the Spanish clubs that are the most successful in the world organize the club the way I want. They have many specialists instead of a few people doing things they are not qualified to do.

Journaltite ?
I wouldn't have much confidence in a company where the Managing Director can't spell their name correctly.
*coughs* bullshit.

^ Right there.
