Possibly not, but the original fund would have been written down / off a long time ago.Either way I'm pretty sure they didn't plan on still being here by this time.

As an aside, Liverpool's (and Boston Red Sox) owners are a hedge fund, and have owned the Red Sox for a couple of decades.
I don't think there has been an abundance of buyers. Sisu were the only ones willing to take us on and saved us from administration. Since then we've had our ups and downs as is well known, but who else has been willing to put money down?They've been here 15 years. That in itself is extremely odd for a hedge fund usually looking for a quick buck
And you believed that?He said Hyam wasn't sold because of cashflow problems did he not?
U.S. sport is very different - basically you're protected even if you make the worst decisions ever because there's no risk of relegation etc. You could lose every game one year and still be able to win the big prize the next. In fact you can even be helped to do so because the draft system means you'd get the pick of the young players coming through.Possibly not, but the original fund would have been written down / off a long time ago.

Yep just the cycle of selling to investHe said Hyam wasn't sold because of cashflow problems did he not?
Prove its a lieAnd you believed that?

Fans will continue to pile money in because if not the owner will just throw a tantrum and threaten to move the team somewhere else, which with a limited number of pro teams means there's no end of takers willing to throw millions/billions at attracting one in terms of tax breaks and infrastructure.
A sports team in the U.S. is a goldmine.
That’s the usual way of doing things on here isn’t it?Are we just going to type a lot of words totally unrelated to the point made...?
we kept onto all 3 by accidentWe look more solid defensively than we ever have, we aren’t a club with a bottomless pit of cash, we have 4 very very capable centre halves.
I honestly think the squad we have today (addition of palmer, panzo and Doyle, bidwell looking a very solid option at LB and with Josh Eccles development) that we actually have a stronger squad today than we did with hyam
Struggle to understand the fans who berate the owners over ‘a lack of investment’ when we held onto our big 3, absolutely nobody thought that Gus, Cal and Gyok would all be here this season, yet here we are. The investment in the summer was holding onto these guys.

Well well well, yet another clean sheet, and a new club record set!!!
This is now the best defensive unit in the history of the club. FACT???
Well done lads!!!!
Apparently it was achieved back in 1934, so just one more game to go.
This is a new record for our time in the top two divisions.Apparently it was achieved back in 1934, so just one more game to go.

It's an all time record for our time in the top 2 divisions.It's not the all time record.

We were in the third division south in 1934 (if my memory serves me well, I'm getting on a bit now)
We won so he’s shite
he’s just Hyam - same tentative weak Hyam - and slow. With good players around him he can sometimes compete but he’s just anonymous
