Fenway Sports Group—the same cabal that owns your Boston Red Sox—has
admitted they "underestimated" how crappy their Liverpool soccer club was. Moreover,
John Henry's former General Counsel said the owners were "overconfident" about the re-building process at Anfield. The admissions by
Edward Weiss came at a New York State Supreme Court hearing related to a lawsuit aimed at the
former owners of the soccer club. Listen to this baloney,
"We were overconfident in assuming that many of the things that we had done in Boston at Fenway would translate naturally to the Premier League, and they just didn't all translate." What, like
three last place finishes in the last four years? Too bad
our own NOG (New Ownership Group) couldn't be as forthcoming about their failures at Fenway. Who knows, maybe then we'd get a
drop in ticket prices?
