i keep telling you guys to stop worrying. Rafa is already making plans for the summer and is linked with top top players as you can see. Fergie is shitting his load and always has since Rafa signed up. With King Kenny hopefully on board the spirit is beginning to set high pace. 8 weeks max and arabs will be on board.

In the mean time we need to concentrate on the title and take it to the wire and we will win the 19th.

Is this just his opinion, because he has heard the same rumours as everyone else.

on setanta:

martin fischer: .....we'll come to the game itself in a moment, but david fairclough alongside me, usually is very good for the inside track on what's happening behind the scenes at liverpool. And David, it looks as though again there might be a change of ownership possibly in the summer...that's the talk you tell me.

fairclough: yeah, I believe that looks immanent at the moment...great speculation that err, that the new, or potential owners were there on tuesday night. Certainly from what we're gathering, it looks on the cards in the near future.

fisher: and who are these new owners, are they the same people that we've heard of before or is this a new group?

fairclough: Yeah, names that you won't err, they will be familiar to people I think.

fisher: so arab groups?

fairclough: yeah looks like it yeah.

fisher: now what kind of impact would that have on the club do you think?

Fairclough: I think Liverpool err, need to be moving forward. I'm sure that the manager has had assurances that err, new finance will be there. Certainly the club have to develop in terms of stadium wise, so I think those guarentees must be in place for Rafa to have committed his long term future.

fisher: so presumably Rafa knows all about this?

Fairclough: yeah I would say so

Yeah from reading the transcript you'd get that impression, but the way he said it was very relaxed, very confident. He didn't give the impression of a man who was speculating.

It was before the game on the Sentana stream matey. So no we haven't. But it might come up later on tonight. Watch this space. And the papers probably already know something is going on, its not exactly a well kept secret. Its just that nothing is going to be made official just yet.

I dont believe he would do that anyway, but just maybe he has been sucked into the rumours like a lot of us have.

I know that, but if anyone thinks Davy knows anything, others, including all the journo's and some of the ITK's on here would know at least as much and it would have come out by now. There is no chance this being fact, just his opinion I'm afraid. But saying that, if Spurs can hold on to win at the Toilet then I'll believe in fucking fairies.

I know who he is ,but is David Fairclough close to the club now?

If this were happening,would he know?
Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns
"Come in", She said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

I might be in!

Past history tells us that we have been within an hour or so of being sold, first to Dubai, and then Kuwait, and there was no speculation that a deal was that imminent on either occasion. I believe when the club is sold it will be done before we know about it.

He wouldn't know before any of the journo's close to the club or the players or some of the ITK's on here, so the answer to your question is he doesn't really know anything, he's just stating his opinion.
