"The new regulations will be put to the test on March 1 when Victory hosts Melbourne Heart in an AAMI Park derby expected to be a sell-out.

Heart supporters will not be subject to the same conditions in their active area"  

Love that last part lol

I cant see how this will effect the rest of the league, Victory and WsW have had this coming for a while now.

Only takes a few more dickheads to come near the yarraside in a derby for us to also be branded hooligans, news people love running the hooligan headlines, i really hope we don't get dragged into it. I've actually near seen an evictions or anything like that in the last couple years near the active area.

Just watched one of the videos on the Herald Sun site and can't help but laugh at their retarded fan-base lighting flares and covering their noses with their Kmart polo tops all while chanting "Ole, ole ole, ole ole ole ole, ole ole, ole ole ole ole" endlessly.

 

Can't say I'm surprised at their limited vocabulary and mental issues.

Guess that's why they're the tards.

MELBOURNE Victory has instigated talks with the possibility of selling a stake to Liverpool.

Victory chairman Anthony Di Pietro - one of the club's principal shareholders - was reportedly in England last weekend talking to the English Premier League club's officials.

But it's uncertain if Di Pietro watched Liverpool draw 1-1 with West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns last weekend.

But the Liverpool and Victory relationship was strengthened last year when the clubs faced off in a friendly in Melbourne in July.

The dialogue between the clubs has been frequent ever since.

A Victory official was contacted by The Advertiser on Wednesday night but was yet to comment.

But Liverpool's star-studded squad was clearly overwhelmed when the MCG mirrored the world famous Anfield with 95,000 fans sang the Liverpool anthem You'll Never Walk Alonebefore the Liverpool beat Victory 2-0 with goals from iconic Steven Gerard and Iago Aspas.

Liverpool is owned by the Fenway Sports Group through certain wholly owned subsidiaries.

The US-based company also owns Major League baseball's Boston Redsox.

Liverpool, according to the Deloitte Football Money League, is the 12th richest club in the world, turning over $365 million during the 2012/13 season.

Liverpool's supporters club in Australia has the biggest fans-based football chapter in the nation and has millions of fans in Asia.

Adelaide-based Matthew Selby last year became the official Liverpool supporters club delegate representing millions of Reds fans from the Middle East, Asia and the Oceania region for a three-year term.

But the pending Victory/Liverpool deal comes on the back of Manchester City buying an 80 per cent share of Melbourne Heart with philanthropists Gerry Ryan and Bart Campbell - from Melbourne Storm rugby league - also owning a 20 per cent stake of the club.

Heart was sold for about $12 million with Victory expected to fetch more than $20 million for the franchise which is regarded as the biggest football club in Australia.

Western Sydney Wanderers - currently owned by Football Federation Australia - is also expected to be sold to foreign investors for about $15 million.

A-League head Damien de Bohun welcomed the foreign interest in A-League clubs.

"From our recent dealings with Manchester City in relation to Melbourne Heart and through the Western Sydney Wanderers sale process, it has become very apparent to us that there is a large amount of interest from overseas parties, including football clubs, that are looking to invest in Hyundai A-League clubs,'' de Bohun said.

"We will continue work with any club that considers to receive overseas investment as long as it is mutually beneficial."

I highly doubt Liverpool would do that. 

 

Already have a huge presence in Asia and need to focus resources (which given their lack of Champions League status would be lower then expected) on upgrading their stadium. 

 

The fact that the news was picked up by The Adelaide Advertiser, an anti-football rag if there was ever one,  (and run by the Herald Sun without any Davutovic input) makes it all seem like a pretty long shot. 

 

If the Visitors CEO was up there, it was probably to either arrange the purchase of Brad Jones, or to sort out another Friendly. Neither of which is exceptionally threatening.

Di Pietro selling up to Liverpool.

Vucktree playing ACL games in Geelong.

North Terrace on death row.

Ffa going draconian on their supporters.

Muscunt destroying everything Ange built.

We are actually witnessing the implosion of their football club.

Glorious times to be a Heart supporter. :up:

Yet they'll still tell us that we're the joke of a club  :lol:

Pretty confident that the reds aren't going to slump quite that low.

 

In all seriousness all the evidence points to Liverpool being keen to grow the brand of Liverpool FC through out the world to sell stuff etc etc.  They (umm we) are desperate to keep up with the rival Premier League clubs with more financial clout and every spare pound would be allocated to that task.  Can't see them wasting money buying into a club based in Geelong.

Anyone heard the rumour they've got a development squad accepted into the NPL?

Someone can correct me if I'm horribly wrong here, but I was under the impression that the NPL would effectively be replacing the NYL due to it's high costs.

If I'm right, you'd assume every club will have a development team. Would also maybe explain why the FFV blocked our second team.
