Genuine question, was anyone actually left in negative equity, did anyone buy a house in the streets that got demolished after the club started buying them up? The club started buying in 1996 until about 2000 and the sale price at the time was £33k to £35k - our house, which is now worth £250k in a nice middle class area was £37k in 1997.

My Dad sold his house in Varthen Street in around 1990 for £8k, he moved to Garston because the area around the ground was an absolute shit hole, with loads of fucking rats breaking into houses and shit and he refused to bring my sister up in such a place. A lad I worked with in the 90's was buying up houses in Anfield to rent out and paying under £12k
