The Kop showing how they feel on the ownership crisis!

Finally the Anfield circus with the 2 Yanks has an ending in sight. Royal Bank of Scotland has put its foot down and demanded them to appoint a new chairman to helm the club and relinquish their ownership . These recommendations and conditions have to be met before an extension to the loan can be approved.

The slightly disturbing news is that the candidate to take over the chairman position is a life-long Chelsea fan – Martin Broughton. That being said, he has a proven track record as the head honcho at British Airways.  If the appointment goes ahead as expected, he will resign his post at BA and sit on top of the board instead of the 2 co-chairmen.

This latest development is good news to the long suffering and disillusioned Reds. The road to recovery is still a long and hard one with huge obstacles to over come. Irregardless, the biggest onee has been remove and let’s hope RBS / Barclays will find a suitable and appropriate buyer for our beloved club. The club deserves nothing but the best.

Personally speaking, who ever that takes over the club and the new chairman will be ill advised to remove Christian Purslow and Ian Ayre from the board. The two of them are the sole reason we’re still standing. They have worked tirelessly to help us rebuild the sponsorship and commercial aspects of the club. They are big assets to the future direction of Liverpool FC.

Looks like “the family silver” will be changing hands again no thanks to the short-sightedness of David Moores and the daftness of Rick “Crusty the Clown” Parry. Money talks and bullshits walk – how true!
