What do fans think of potential minority share sale?

[BBC] Liverpool fans consider the club to have a specific set of values, centred around its working-class roots.

"Does this potential consortium have the best interests of the club at the forefront or is it a 'trophy' buy?" Read more on the potential sale of a share in Liverpool
