We need to remember that Kenny needs time - something people forget is that Shanks had 3 seasons without the trophy he was brought in for and then another 7 years without silver of any sort - if we win the FA cup then 2 trophies in one season is a great achievement - let's redevelop Anfield

This annoys me, they write off 35 million pounds for a some architects to design a stadium..yet us poor supporters are still willing to pay hard earned cash to watch rubbish at Anfield wek in week out.What about giving our money back for this season Mr Henry?

Its got to be on a firmer footing than when them two leeches owned us. What was Moores thinking when he sold to them two? Rafas downfall was selling 2 key players and letting a club legend leave for nothing. I dont care what anyone says. From 86 points to 69 or whatever says it all really.

FSG has done what every new owner does – whack all the write-offs into their first year to post a thumping great loss.

That gives them a massive tax advantage, plus they can show an improving trend which grows the value of the company.

They basically got LFC for nothing – all they had to do was pay off the debts.

I'm dubious about Europa League. In footballing terms it's a lot of fixtures for not much revenue and a distraction (excuse) when we want better in the league.

It looks like there's going to be continuing pressure to sign players who don't demand top wages.

And the stadium farce is set to run and run. The problem is they can't afford to redevelop Anfield because they need to sell every seat at every match.

And some deluded fans will still say it was Rafa's fault we are in this mess! Did he pay £35 to architects in Dallas? Did he put the club into 300 million debt?..

£35m for a large, immobile structure that hasn't got off the ground .... hhmmm
