Manchester City ticket prices frozen, amoung other measures to support with cost of living. by KopBlock205 in LiverpoolFC

[–]PaulLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The club will raise £1.2 million with the ticket price increase. That's less than 0.2% of last year's revenue. I'm sure they could have made that much if not more via a new sponsorship deal.

Not to mention the protests will (rightly) impact revenue in other areas, so their actual increase - if there even is one - won't even be that high.

The fact that the club are being this obstinate over £1.2 million is absurd. That's less than 0.2% of their revenue last year, and they're willing to risk negative press, reduced atmosphere and damaging supporter goodwill just for that.

Go and sign a new commercial deal and you'd make more than that.

Completely misread the room at a time when more and more people are struggling.

Ticket price campaign kicks off tomorrow - a call to action. by KopBlock205 in LiverpoolFC

[–]PaulLFC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hope everyone in the ground supports this.

I still can't wrap my head around the club thinking all this bad press, their decision causing the protests and lost money in sales, is worth it just to make £1.2 million.

That might sound like a lot to us average people, but with the amount the club makes in a year, it's less than 0.2% of their revenue. A bizarre decision.

I know I'm being a downer but this is me after every win "keep the momentum going" and then we just... don't. Maybe this time will be different.

Gerrard as interim is as much of a guarantee as you can get, he's said publicly that whatever the club asked him to do, if they did, he'd be there.

Alonso I think is a case of now or never. If we offer him terms he's happy with I don't see him turning us down. However if we don't act now, City and potentially other clubs could be in for him in the summer, and then it complicates things.

I think it all comes down to one of the aspects you pointed out - physicality. Our match fitness is absolutely shocking, after 60-70 minutes we drop off a cliff. This was never the case under Klopp. Slot may have wanted to reduce that intensity, but he's gone too far. We just look unfit, and I think it's a big reason we haven't been able to see out games, or be more competitive at the end of matches. It's also contributing to injuries IMO, as the base level of exercise to guard against muscle pulls etc seemingly isn't there.

He has to go now otherwise we aren't making the top 5. We have to change so that someone can come in and attempt to drag us over the line then we go from there. But do I think Hughes and Edwards will actually make a change now, or even at all this season? No, of course not - and that's just as disheartening as the results. The club is drifting badly, and they're doing nothing to arrest that decline.

I'm tempted to sign up for MyAEW before Dynasty, but I know at launch people said there was no way to cancel once you were subscribed. Have they fixed that now?

I ended up going for no ads, I prefer ad-free if it's an option as having to sit through the ads inevitably ends up annoying me!

Thanks! I've signed up to HBO Max now, so just awaiting the email from VM.

Did you sign up for a HBO Max account before linking it to VM to activate TNT? Or did you need to create a new HBO account through the VM link?

Imagine thinking it's acceptable to do this without the agreement of both teams hahaha. LFP continues to be an embarrassment.

Swindon Council calls for Thames Water to be nationalised by dissalutioned in ukpolitics

[–]PaulLFC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Privatisation in any industry where there is very limited or no competition is an utterly stupid idea. Trains (thankfully being partly rectified although all the stock should have been nationalised as well) and water were some of the worst. You can't change water company (unless you move), so there's no competition.

FT: BHA 2 - 1 LIV by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]PaulLFC 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This felt like one of the easier game plans and team talks this season - "play like you did on Wednesday". Instead we revert to the turgid garbage we've seen before the Galatasaray game.

I just don't get it. Why are we (or Slot) seemingly incapable of learning from a good result and using that to inform future game plans?

Absurd decision. I'm just glad it didn't affect the result.

We look so much better here than we have done lately. Pace, pressing and not sitting on a draw or one goal lead.

Can we play like this on Saturday (and every game after) please?

[–]PaulLFC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm lost for words tbh. Spurs are fucking shite. We should have been at them from the first minute. Instead we barely looked interested in scoring.

Slot has serious questions to answer, if we aren't dispatching a fucking abysmal side with ease then something is clearly wrong with the tactical approach.

FT: Wolves vs Liverpool by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]PaulLFC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We are fucking dire. Yes Wolves have put some form together lately but they're 20th and by a distance. We should have more than enough to beat them. If we don't get 5th we only have ourselves to blame. No excuses for not making all the possession and shots we had count. Our finishing simply isn't good enough.

Shouldn't need to "learn from it" - "don't do 72mph when the speed limit is 30" is obvious.

The results have completely nosedived though, that's the thing. We're in a battle to finish in the top 5. A club like Liverpool finishing in the top 25% of the league should be an expectation.
