Freshfields wins role on ongoing Liverpool FC saga

What a sad indictment on modern business. A bunch of ego driven men with more money than sense getting their kicks (no pun intended) from buying football clubs and loading them up with debt so that the 'value' released can be used elsewhere. Where is the beautiful game after all this nonsense? Watching oligarchs towing city solicitors in their wake is all rather tawdry. No one comes out of this well, not the clubs, not the game, not the lawyers, nor any of those who see these shenanigans as a genuine business venture. It clearly is nothing of the kind; it is the extraction of value for use elsewhere and b****r the consequences. Another rather nasty side of capitalism where the creation of wealth supercedes all.
