Ian - The money to be made from soccer isn't in the same league as that made from sports here, and is insignificant compared to the amount of money DIC make from others sources, especially given the capital investment required to spend on players. DIC want to own Liverpool to make them successful and use them as a marketing tool for Dubai as a place to do business. As long as the club doesn't become a huge cash sink as Chelsea is becoming for Abramovich I doubt they are overly worried about the relatively small returns.

Neil, Baltimore,

Liverpool FC's problems this year have been on the pitch and not anything at all to do with the NA owners. The sooner fans understand this the more they can pressure management to do a better job in the Premier League.

And why do fans so routinely think that DIC would represnt a better owner?

We all agree that Hicks is as useful to Liverpool as a pair of sunglasses on a man with no ears. However, with this so called powershare (which will hopefully result in DIC buying Hicks out in time), maybe the super stadium plans can be reinstated. We need to look at how we can USE Hicks to our advantage, before turfing him out.

More importantly short term - Inter Milan. Come on Rafa, show the world you are untouchable in European football, and ultimately in time, in the Premiership. Come on lads, we are all behind you!

Rick Parry (CEO) has a lot to answer for. Throughout this whole saga he has remain awfully quite until the Mascherano deal was done. That, he says demonstrates the commitment of the owners. He forgot to mention that Sissoko sale of £11m help pay for Mascherano, with the shortfall most probably financed through loans, just like everything else up to now.
I don't blame David Moores; he's just a scally-wag being badly advised by someone with a conflict of interest (it was rumoured that DIC would not have Parry as CEO).
Rick Parry should go. For the West Ham FA Cup Final 2006, he said he did not understand why the Millennium Stadium would not issue duplicates following a batch of tickets going walkies from a Post Office van. He should know; I wrote to him 3 times the year earlier to ask why there was someone in my seat for the Carling Cup Final against Chelsea.Response to my letters: 1st: reply in due course; 2nd:said secretary was supposed to reply; 3rd: no reply. No apology. Disgusting

Vincent Lock, London,
