Liverpool Echo.co.uk - News - Liverpool Local News - Peter Kilfoyle: Liverpool FC could face financial ruin without new owners


Liverpool FC could face financial ruin without new owners
Mar 16 2010 by Marc Waddington, Liverpool Echo


OUTGOING Walton MP Peter Kilfoyle last night launched an attack on Liverpool FC’s current regime and said the club risked “going down the tubes” if its ownership does not change.

In a hard-hitting ECHO interview, Mr Kilfoyle, retiring after 19 years as MP representing Anfield:said there was no reason why Liverpool and other seemingly unsinkable clubs like Manchester Utd would not end up as “financial disasters” due to debt; said he had no idea who was in charge at Anfield;claimed Reds’ managing director Christian Purslow had told him three times he is there only to sell the club, not to run it.
Today he club did not confirm or deny Mr Purslow’s comments, but said it was “working round the clock to drive the business forward”.

Mr Kilfoyle told the ECHO: “It’s going to go down the tubes if it’s not careful. I’ve got no idea who runs the club since Rick Parry left.

“Christian Purslow is a managing director, he’s not the chief executive. As far as I’m aware, and what he has told me three times, is he is there to sell the club, not to run it.

“Running a football club is a hell of a lot different from being a banker, which is what he is. He is there to sell the club – that’s what he’s there for, that’s what he is employed to do.”

There has been renewed speculation in the last few days that the club may soon change hands. The Royal Bank of Scotland has stressed it wants to see a solution to the club’s £270m debt.

Yesterday the ECHO reported interest in a £110m investment from New York-based Rhone Group and Mr Kilfoyle said it was time for the current ownership to step aside.

“It’s all about culture, it’s about attitude. The Americans view football clubs as an asset to be bought and sold.

“They can wear all the scarves they like and go to matches until they’re blue in the face – even at Anfield – but what they can’t do, what they can’t get away from, is the basic financial facts, that they can’t carry on servicing these debts without taking on even more debts.”

He added: “I think Liverpool needs to get its ownership changed and sorted once and for all.

“I don’t believe that they any more than United can continue to carry the kind of debts they’re carrying. People say things will go on and on and advertising will keep going up and this, that and the other. This is nonsense.

“If we have learned anything from this banking crisis a couple of years ago, it’s that what you least expect is going to happen is round the corner.

“We’ve seen Portsmouth go into administration, West Ham are struggling on and off the pitch.

“There’s no reason why United and Liverpool can’t end up as financial disasters, no reason whatsoever.”

An LFC club spokesman said: “The management of Liverpool FC have great respect for Peter Kilfoyle and his record of public service in our local community. We also respect his passionate views as a football fan.

“He is right that there is a need for new investment into Liverpool FC and he should rest assured that the management are working round the clock to achieve this as well as trying to drive the business forward and, most importantly, support our management and players at this key time in the season.]]> To: Stephen.Hester@rbs.co.uk; John.HOURICAN@rbs.com; Roger.Lowry@rbs.co.uk; rebecca.oliphant@rbs.com; Public.Affairs@rbs.co.uk

FA Watch represents football fans of all English Premier League clubs who are worried that the Football Association (FA) as an organisation are either unable or unwilling to police the laws of the game in a fair, objective and consistent manner.

FA Watch is committed to highlighting specific examples of such perceived bias where clubs and players do not appear to have been treated by the FA in a fair and objective manner. This will be solely in relation to incidents of violent conduct and goal celebrations where referees and subsequently the FA’s own Regulatory Commission have dealt with incidents inconsistent with what would normally be expected.

FA Watch will monitor games in the Premier League from now on and invite the Football Association to take action in appropriate cases where it seems the authorities may be reluctant to act. The campaign will hopefully over time collect evidence that will either prove or disprove the notion that the Big 4 clubs are treated in a way different to other Premier League clubs. In the meantime FA Watch has written to the Secretary to the Regulatory Commission drawing their attention to incidents.

We have invited their comments, which will be published in due course at: http://www.fawatch.org/forum/

Remember the sites purpose is to represent every club in the league, but FA Watch is most importantly dependent on your support, so hopefully with this in mind as many of you as possible will come over from time to time to see how we're doing.

Quote:Liverpool have announced the "largest ever commercial deal" in the history of the club with Standard Chartered Bank sealing a four-year sponsorship deal.

It is reported that the agreement is worth in the region of £80m and the announcement signals the end of Liverpool's lengthy association with Carlsberg, who have been the club's shirt sponsors since 1992.

Standard Chartered will become the club's primary sponsor from July next year and the deal, confirmed by managing director Christian Purslow, will run until the end of the 2013-14 season.

"The sponsorship opportunity attracted a huge level of interest from a wide array of globally recognised brands," Purslow told the club's official website.

"It is a real sign of the progress we have made at Liverpool that we have been able to secure the largest ever commercial deal in our history."

News of the new sponsorship deal comes just three days after co-owner George Gillett claimed the club are in a stronger economic position than at any other time in their history.

Plans for a new 60,000-seater stadium at Stanley Park have been delayed due to the global financial climate but Purslow has hinted that Monday's news could reinvigorate the project.

"The overall financial health of our football club is a key ingredient of being able to get the stadium project back up and running," Purslow said.

"This is a huge step forward for the club financially and that can only be helpful to create the conditions in which we can restart the stadium project.''



LIVERPOOL ANNOUNCE NEW SHIRT SPONSOR


Quote:Liverpool FC and Standard Chartered Bank announced today they had agreed a four year deal for the bank to become the club's main sponsor - the largest commercial agreement in Liverpool's history.

The agreement, which starts in July 2010 and runs through to the end of the 2013-14 season, will see the bank's name and logo appear on the Liverpool shirt.

Liverpool FC is the most successful club in English football, enjoying a global following most recently evidenced in its highly successful pre-season tour of Singapore and Thailand. As official club sponsors, Standard Chartered will enjoy a major rights package which will provide the platform to significantly step up the Bank's brand awareness across its core markets in Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

standardchartered2Standard Chartered PLC, listed on both London and Hong Kong stock exchanges, ranks among the top 25 companies in the FTSE-100 by market capitalisation. The Bank has more than doubled its revenue and profits over the last five years and has performed consistently well, delivering record results throughout the recent financial crisis.

Christian Purslow, Managing Director of Liverpool Football Club, pictured above signing the contract alongside Standard Chartered chairman John Peace, commented: "This partnership brings together two highly successful organisations with a really strong cultural and strategic fit. The sponsorship opportunity attracted a huge level of interest from a wide array of globally recognised brands and in Standard Chartered we believe we have the ideal partner to move forward and help develop our global ambitions for the club. It is a real sign of the progress we have made at Liverpool that we have been able to secure the largest ever commercial deal in our history."

Peter Sands, Group Chief Executive of Standard Chartered PLC, said: "This is a great partnership. We are excited to be working with such a famous global brand as Liverpool Football Club for the next four years. This is an outstanding opportunity for Standard Chartered, our customers and shareholders, and for Liverpool, its players and fans

"We see many opportunities to continue growing our business, particularly as Asia, Africa and the Middle East are emerging from the global downturn more quickly than the West. This sponsorship will drive a step change in brand recognition in our key markets and will provide an additional catalyst for our business growth."

Quote:After a freak pre-season incident in which Fabio Aurelio was injured whilst having a back-yard kickabout with his son (!), Liverpool fans were looking forward to the Brazilian's return to action. Unfortunately, Aurelio's comeback is on hold yet again after another freak injury sustained at Liverpool's Melwood training ground today.

Liverpool-Kop understands that whilst preparing for the usual five-a-side game, Aurelio dislocated his shoulder whilst pulling on his five-a-side training bib.

It appears that Aurelio picked up a smaller youth team bib by accident, and the resultant tightness when trying to pull it on directly caused the injury.

Liverpool physio Dave Galley explained:

"The dislocation occurred because Fabio pulled the bib down at the wrong angle, and the consequent pressure exerted by the tightness of the bib unfortunately caused his shoulder to pop out of place.

"We had to cut the bib away, as trying to pull off something wedged so tightly against his body would have exacerbated the injury".
Aurelio was devastated by his latest piece of injury bad luck:

"Just when i thought I was out of this injury nightmare, it PULLED ME BACK IN!"

Rafa Benitez was unfazed by this latest set-back:

"It is not a problem, no? We still have Dossena, who gives us lots of options, no? Our idea is also to move Gerrard to left back, as he is very versatile, and perhaps use Mascherano behind Torres. For sure it is a short-term solution, but I think it will work, no?".
