We have a new writer on EOTK, welcome aboard Mark, here are his first postings.
The club has alerted the Premier League that there will be a change of ownership soon more…
(OMG It is really happening, Hicks & Gillett are leaving, YIPPEEEEEEEE)
And according to a report we could become the wealthiest club on the planet more…
(From rags to riches? Keeping my fingers crossed)
The Daily Mail claims that Kirdi is the front runner more…
(It is the Daily Mail)
Torres “I am at the best club” more…
(We know that, You know that but the Manc loving news-media doesn’t)
Palermo still want Lucas more…
(Go away Palermo)
And Fiorentina have confirmed that they have failed to sign Insua more…
(:-))
Looks like the club is getting a cash injection from a new sponsor more…
(As long as Hicks & Gillett leave, that is all we care about)
Flamini is the latest player linked with Liverpool more…
(Humm)
Degen looks headed to Stuttgart more…
(Good luck)
Huang to Hodgson “I will buy you Messi” more…
(Hey how about throwing Villa in too? LOL)
Al Fayed claims Hodgson ‘took advantage’ of Fulham more…
(??? He turned Fulham into a football club)
Amoo scores for the reserves as they secure a victory over Tranmere more…
(Excellent)
And according to this report, we have been given permission to speak with Poulsen more…
(More good news)
Ancelotti questions Joe Cole’s intelligence more…
(I have been questioning Ancelotti’s intelligence since May 25th, 2005)
Macmahon describes Suso as a ‘joy to watch’ more…
(This lad is going to be a legend)
Rushie pays tribute to Hodgson more…
(Y.N.W.A. Ian, you are a true legend)
And finally Yossi doesn’t blame Hicks & Gillett for Liverpool’s failings more…
(Yossi, Yossi, Yossi please don’t make claims like this)
It is tantalising, although I’m so so cynical. It will take more than rhetoric to appease us this time. By the way, it doesn’t appear that Yossi was making any comments relating to H & G’s financial (mis)administration of the club, just emphasising that the club’s off-pitch problems didn’t particularly affect the morale or performances of the players. He was stressing player culpability (including himself). He doesn’t seemed to have been discussing investment or player acquisitions. After all, Manchester City’s three-year investment clearly hasn’t affected its squad :-DD
Fayed’s riches are only surpassed by his lack of tact and appreciation.
Anyone interested in the takeover by Huang should check out this article. Paul Tomkins tweeted it this morning.

Doesn’t sound too promising. Apparently he’s not even a billionaire as presviously reported, and going directly through RBS to buy the club’s debt is a load of bull. I won’t believe anything I read about his guy unless the club actually announces something.
The only hope is that he is heading a sovereign wealth fund or that other bidders’ credentials check out.
Let’s hope.
I watched the reservs game and suso stood out by a mile. The kids ability to pass and receive the ball under presure and make something happen is clear for all to see. I am looking foward to seeing him grow and improve. He is looking well class. Suso YNWA
also looking good on the taking over of the club this month, good riddens yanks!!!
Does anyone know how I could watch the reserves game vs Tranmere? I really want to see Suso’s performance. I keep reading great things and just saw a little video of him. Wish he would have come on earlier against Borussia.
We really have some promising young talent in Sterling and Suso. Only 15 and 16 years old! Sheesh. Blows my mind. Really hope we hold on to these boys.
Between them, Amoo (19), Eccleston (19), Ince (18), Dalle Valle (18), Shelvey (18), Kelley (20), Ayala (19), Mavinga (19), Wilson (18) and Pacheco (19), we really have some great young talent. There is also Nemeth (21) and Spearing (21).
Hopefully a few of these players can break into the first team.
