moores

Former Liverpool chairman, David Moores, has finally come out from the woodwork in his Formby mansion and told his side of the story as regards selling my club to the Americans. The "Liverpool Echo" piece is rather good.

Well, not good reading because all Moores seems to want to do is justify himself and the terrible mistake he made three years ago. It's all very well, David, when you've been sent to Coventry by the current owners, to moan like mad about a situation you could've avoided if you and your advisers had any sort of gumption or integrity about them.

It's also wonderful that your fine words, however late they are, add fuel to the fire of the "Sons Of Shankly" organisation - a band of supporters who, through their over-riding hatred of the Yanks, helped keep Rafa Benitez in the job for a full season longer than he should've. Knobheads.

I'd rather see my team lose every game ever from now on, than have it in control of our wretched, uncaring owners. In the near future, there is going to be a wake-up call in English football because a very, very, very big team is going to fail financially in an unprecedentedly massive way. It will be one of two clubs - the biggest clubs to be precise - Liverpool or Manchester United. It's inevitable. Football cannot carry on as it is. The money has blown everything out of proportion.
