He has just bought my beloved Soccer club Liverpool FC and I just want to know that he has the money to develop the stadium and buy new players and not drive Liverpool FC in to further debt like the previous owners did.

I know he use to Own the Florida Marlins (my MLB team) and he's loaded and likes to win, so i think you'll be fine

He's got a CRAZY amount of money.

I'm guessing only good can come of this --- unless he personally get's closely involved and cuts some of your favorite players.

Other than that, it's a win win, I think

I hear he's partial to cozy evenings by the fire and long walks in the moonlight.

When the owner of the Dodgers sold his house, during his divorce, here in Massachusetts, John Henry bought it for $16 million and tore it down and built a bigger one. He not only has the money but the business savvy to make things happen. I think you're in fine shape.

Remember the same group took a team that hadn't won a world series in 86 years and won two in the next 5. In the toughest division in baseball. They also back Nascar driver Carl Edwards and he's always in the top of the standings since they started sponsoring him.

They won't spend millions on one player they'll balance the team and bring in front office personnel that will get the job done. They'll scout well and make moves that will generate revenue in ways you never think of. They will run it like a business but as stated earlier they want to win and will do everything they can to get that done.
