Sold!?

Well..
It would appear that my football club will be the next one to be sold into foreign ownership, if reports on the BBC website are to be believed.

There's no doubt that investment is needed, particularly to build "The new Anfield", however I was always hoping Stadium sponsorship (like the Emirates/Arsenal deal) might help with that particular cost.

Instead it looks like LFC will be the latest Premiership club to be sold on to rich businessmen from foreign shores.

I just wonder how the fans will be treated?
Do these foreign owners even give a toss about the thousands that turn up week-in-week-out, coughing up hundreds of pounds a year (even when it's a midweek fixture and the team puts on a piss-poor performance against Portsmouth). Or will just be a figure on an Excel spreadsheet somewhere? Can we expect to see ticket prices go through the roof as a result, and more corporate boxes for twats who are prepared to pay £1,000s to eat oysters and sip champagne whilst they watch the game from behind glass at a safe distance from the real supporters? After all, isn't that where the real money is..
Where's the sport feature in all these deals, I wonder?

Oh well, we shall see..
