As an American and a Yankee fan, I must say, I am very happy that Liverpool are on the brink of being bought by the Red Sox. Despite being our biggest rival, the team is run extremely well and in many ways, the Red Sox echoes much of what Liverpool is/was/can be again. Port-town, crazy loyal fan, years of suffering at the hands of one rival (Yanks), an old ballpark, etc, etc.

Should the sale go through and I would be SHOCKED if somehow Hicks and Gillette won, I believe good things are on the way for the club. We won't be relegated, (seriously, it's barely October), probably won't make top 4 either, but this is a very solid position to be in from this point forward as the Red sox people, as opposed to the current, hopefully soon to be ex-owners, actually want to make the team a solid outfit and not just a profit margin.

I'm looking forward to the club getting sold, getting right and the current owners getting nothing.

Take care all.
