LeBron James buys into Liverpool

[Jaames]

Just read that James has bought a minority stake in the Reds. Can't post the link at the moment as I'm using iPhone.

wow, there is money gone down the drain.

Being that they are the 6th richest club in the world I think not.

I think this is more about his marketing firm being able to access millions of new fans (and sales) rather than success on the pitch.

Of course its all about marketing, The major owners of Liverpool do need a single $ off LeBron to run the club.
