Away from all the transfer talk, can the eds or anyone else tell, what happened to that kid from stoke that we messed about with in the previous window by tapping him up?

{Ed002's Note - I don't want to open it up again but the Football Association gave permission for Liverpool to buy there way out of it in this one case.}

What do you mean by buying there way out of it Ed. Does it mean doing right by the kid and paying off his and his parents debt which they had taken on. Can you please elaborate?

{Ed002's Note - No, I don't think it right to open it all up again.}

Does this avoid the potentially more serious issue that we won't discuss which was mentioned at the time?

Cheers in advance.

{Ed002's Note - Yes, it should do.}

So the football association take back handers? Or have I got you all wrong Ed?

{Ed002's Note - Really? They help out the club who is the most unprofessional in European football and that is what you have to say.}

The FA hate us and are always discriminating against LFC 😉.

{Ed025's Note - yes ron, they meet weekly with referees and discuss the best way to screw liverpool, they also roll up one trouser leg and wear buffalo head dresses while singing the we hate liverpool song..

Why flog a dead horse? It's embarrassing and we should be glad we got away lightly. Let's hope we are starting to improve the way we do things.

So are you a ref or are you part of the FA ed025? 🤨.

Ed002: sorry but you obviously misunderstood what I was trying to say. With you sayin the football association allowed us to BUY OURSELFS out of this one, I just wasn’t sure and shocked at what you ment if it’s ok with you to make a mistake? Just asking for some clarity as to what you ment.

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool didn't make a mistake - it is one of the worst offenses, if not the worst in the English game. It nearly destroyed the future of a child and plunged his parents in to debt. The FA provided dispensation to Liverpool to make the necessary financial provision for his parents and his education and that will allow him to sign for another club - and perhaps Everton will help him out there.}

I didn’t say Liverpool made a mistake Ed002 I said I did by not being sure what you ment by saying BUY OURSELFS out of this one, I understand the situation how liverpoolacted and treated the young lad and it’s highly disgusting if you ask me I fully agree with you on that. All I asked for Ed is clarity on not understanding what you ment by the F. A. Allowing ourselfs to buy our way out of the situation. I’m not here for arguments or to be disrespected or disrespectful by or to anyone just found it hard to understand the “buy ourselfs out of it” part, thanks either way for your time and reply.

{Ed002's Note - You are welcome.}

Why can't we just do things the legit way like everybody else. I don't know who this is down to but it needs sorting out, there's been a few instances the past few years and it's not doing us any good at all, I don't care what anybody says, illegal approaches are just going to ruin our reputation with other clubs. It needs to stop. Who would blame other clubs if they didn't want to do business with us? I know I wouldn't if I was the owner of X club, no chance.

We have to start doing things in the correct manner or we will just continue to upset clubs and soon only Southampton will deal with us at cost plus 40%.
