I think I may be the only one, or at least in the minority, who thought what these two tried to do this past week was hillarious. I genuinely want them to be around in some other form if only for the entertainment factor.
In most cases I will say that a football club going into administration is a terrible thing, if only for the fans that see their clubs financial deals be the demise rather than what occurs on the field. In this case however there was a different feeling of 'ha ha, they'll get relegated and have to play Scunthorpe and Barnsley in league games!".
This mainly comes due to the constant voicing of opinions of Liverpool fans over the past few years claiming they were the best and would win the league. Only to constantly dissapoint and be a laughing stock of the 'Big 4'. Yet even when that happened they carried on. So when this appeared as a distinct possibility, the administration and 9 point deduction seemed only to be something that could bring those fans down a peg or two.
The word that Hicks/Gillett may still sue Liverpool for $1.6 brings a little comfort that the hillarity will continue at least for a short while. Hicks & Gillett, not everyone hates you... I even like you a little bit, you seem to have a good sense of humour.
Maybe this new lot of Americans will finish the job off...
Anyway, fuck off now.
