This was a football club on the brink of administration back in 2010. Who now stand on the verge of this.

MASSIVE props to the owners for learning from their early mistakes to now running one of the best operations in the whole of football.

The whole football club, from top to bottom, is at its healthiest in every facet the last 30 years. With everything in place to self-sustain and keep on growing.

Our cycle is coming around again.

Following on from the club set to post the first post €100 million net profit in football history, this is more superb news that just attests to how superbly run LFC now is.

With all credit going to the owners.

Owners who, outside of a small return on their minimal intrest loan for the main stand, haven’t taken ANY money out of the club in the 8/9 years they’ve been our guardians. It makes a MASSIVE difference when your owners aren’t taking out big dividends from the club finances every year like their rivals. Instead using the clubs money to fully reinvest in the product. Naturaly, at such time as they do sell, THEN they’ll see a mamouth return. (The club is currently vaued at over $2 billion and counting.). But to press, the only increase to them from their initial inveatment and minimal interest loan, which will be repaid in full by 2020 with the Main Stand then fully self sufficient generating an extra £25 million per annum, is the club’s ‘paper’ value. And NOT in their back pockets.


And I’m totally sound with them making a massive profit when they do eventually sell (which all things being equal won’t be for a LONG time yet) given the magnificent state they’ll be leaving the football club in. The best it’s arguably been in my entire lifetime. Seriously.

We currenrly have the best playing squad we’ve had since Christ knows when? Certainly at any time the PL era. A vastly improved stadium. Inside and out. With the Anny Road end to follow late 2020/ early 2021 once the brand new, £50 million state of the art training complex at Kirkby is completed. Bringing the first team and academy together in one conplex for the first time in our history. All lead from the top with brilliamt, hands on managememt from Peter Moore, Michael Edwards et al. With the football side run by one of the Worlds very top managers along with a superb coaching team. One of the best Academy structures anywhere thats realy starting to bear fruit at all levels under the guidence of Alex Inhlethorpe and the ‘quality over quantity’ mantra he redifined the Academy with.

All whilst being totally self-sufficient and just spending our own money. Which John Henry made clear from day one. ‘Self sufficiency and sustainability.’


From the initial angst as becoming self-sufficient tales time, along with their early mistakes; the owners now FULLY merit our respect in running one of the best operations anwhere.


We’re set up for long term sucess on and off the football pitch.


Our cycle is coming around again.
 
Where's PatrickLFC gone? One of my fav posters on here. Very objective lad.
 
so whats this about tickets for you last home game of the season going for 6k and are any of you thinking about selling yours if you have season tickets
 
I would answer yer mate but I’d probably be just trying to get a rise out of yers apparently so I’ll leave it for someone else.
 
Thank you Rafa! NEVER saw that one coming. Pressure of chasing getting to them again.

That could well be pivotal with a chance to go 3 games clear again at a bouncing Anfield tomorrow. Perfect tonic to what will be another baltic night.

Little bit of breathing space. Title well and truly in our own hands now.
 
League done for me if you win tomorrow. The pressure has defo got to City they look absolutely shot if they concede a goal.
 
Nah. Even with another win tomorrow it’s nowhere near done yet. 4 games clear I’d start to sway that way but 3 with 14 massive Cup Finals to go and a City side that had the best single top flight season in English football history last year ..... LONG way to go yet and they’ll doubtless be more surprising points dropped from both sides. And then there’s Europe about to start back up with both teams a serious prospect to be in Madrid come June.

It just gives that little bit of breathing room and, a victory tomorrow notwithstanding, piles even more pressure on City to be all but perfect from here on out. As L’pool need to keep on trying to be.

Still well in our own hands. All you can ask for.

***** just gotten real.
