But it makes the club some revenue I guess.

For what you get with it £2.99 is an absolute steal mate..

[Brendyne]

If you can afford it.
It's ridiculously expensive if you don't live in England.

[Dan]

Do you have to pay more do you?..

[Brendyne]

$AU1 isn't the same as the pound.

[AnfieldG8]

you pretty much times the amount in pounds by 2 and u get the australian value.

[Brendyne]

Yeah pretty much.
Almost $15 a month is a rip off.

[Dan]

That is quite a lot of money, can you get LFCTV over there or not?

Skysports.com can confirm West Brom have won the race to sign Liverpool goalkeeper Scott Carson.

The Baggies have beaten off interest from a host of clubs to sign the England international.
The Anfield outfit decided to let Carson leave after bringing in Brazilian Diego Cavaleri as cover for established No.1 Jose Reina.
Stoke agreed a £3.5million fee with Liverpool earlier this week and held talks with Carson, who spent last season on loan at Aston Villa, only to pull out of the move on Thursday.
West Brom also negotiated a fee with Liverpool and the former Leeds custodian has now agreed a four-year deal at The Hawthorns.
His agent Colin Gordon confirmed the deal has been done with the Baggies.
"The deal has been done," Gordon told skysports.com.
"Scott has signed a four-year deal with West Brom.
"They will pay £3.25million which will rise to £4million for Scott."

The E-season ticket is £4.99 not £2.99. I pay £4.99 a month but if you pay the annual fee of £44.99 then you get the first 3 months for £2.99 but then it's goes back to the normal monthly price which is £4.99 which isn't that much money realy.

Surely you just convert this into dollars if you're American or whatever currency your countrie uses, other countries don't have to pay more do they? I've not looked tbh.

(Tottenham striker Robbie Keane was a boyhood Liverpool fan.)


Robbie Keane moved closer to his dream transfer to Liverpool yesterday as the Merseysiders prepared to make an offer worth in the region of £20m for the striker and Juande Ramos, the Tottenham manager, admitted that his club would be duty bound to consider it.
Rafael Benítez, the Liverpool manager, has identified Keane as a realistic target - he envisages him forming a partnership up front with Fernando Torres - and as the club's move for the Aston Villa midfielder Gareth Barry encounters difficulties they have made Keane their priority signing.
Tottenham have maintained that neither Keane nor Dimitar Berbatov, their other leading striker who is the subject of a £20m bid from Manchester United as well as reported interest from Barcelona, is for sale. They have not encouraged the interest in either player and the chairman, Daniel Levy, will play hard ball with their suitors. United will have to increase their offer for Berbatov but Sir Alex Ferguson, their manager, is confident of getting the Bulgarian.
"We have made Tottenham an offer on Berbatov and we have good expectations that this deal will go through," he was quoted as saying by the Sun. "Berbatov has been impressive during a long time and would be a great addition to our attack."
Liverpool reason that having sold Peter Crouch to Portsmouth for £11m, and with funds tight, their urgent need is for a replacement striker. They had hoped to sell the midfielder Xabi Alonso to Juventus to swell the transfer kitty but the Italian club signed Christian Poulsen from Sevilla instead and have declared that their summer spending is over. Although Liverpool still want Barry, who is also desperate to join them, they have refused to pay Villa's asking price of £18m. The Barry saga has rumbled on since the end of last season to damaging effect and Liverpool, who have opened a channel of communication with Tottenham, do not want a repeat over Keane. They intend to act decisively.

Liverpool and Manchester United have been reported to the Premier League by Tottenham Hotspur following their respective interest in Robbie Keane and Dimitar Berbatov.
Spurs are unhappy with the conduct of their top-flight rivals following speculation linking Keane with a move to Anfield, and Berbatov with a switch to Old Trafford.
Reds boss Rafa Benitez has expressed his interest in Keane, while United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has spoken of his optimism of concluding a deal for Berbatov.
However, Spurs have criticised the two clubs, with chairman Daniel Levy feeling they have to take the matter up with the Premier League.
Sheer arrogance

"Today's public comments by Manchester United's manager, announcing that he has made an offer for Dimitar and is confident that the deal will go through with time working in their favour, is a blatant example of sheer arrogance and interference with one of our players," said Levy in a statement on the club's official website.
"It is also probably one of the worst offences by any manager in the Premier League to date and is unbelievably hypocritical given his recent comments in respect of Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid.
"This comes after a series of events, dating back to last summer, which have shown Manchester United to be in breach of Premier League (PL) rules. As a result, we have today made an official complaint to the PL about the conduct of Manchester United.
"Benitez made similar comments in respect of Robbie recently and we made an official complaint to the PL about the conduct of Liverpool earlier this week.
"The behaviour of both clubs has been disgraceful. We told both clubs very early on that we had no interest in selling Robbie or Dimitar, respectively, and that they should refrain from pursuing the player. Both clubs arrogantly chose to ignore this request and we now have evidence that both clubs have systematically been working to prise the players away from us, outside of PL rules of conduct.

Negative influence

"Our subsequent position has been severely compromised by both clubs making their intentions widely known and indeed making contact with the players and their agents, without the club's permission.
"I have absolutely no wish to sell either player and to date we have not accepted any offer for either. However, when a player's head is turned and their commitment is absent, particularly when they occupy key positions such as that of striker, they become a negative influence in a team dressing room in which they were once a positive addition and influence.
"This is the situation we now have on our hands, with both Dimitar and Robbie having made it clear that they wish to leave for Manchester Utd and Liverpool respectively.
"Irrespective of the outcome and futures of Robbie and Dimitar, we are continuing to seek to bring in quality, talented players for the future, who want to play in a Spurs shirt."

Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill is still awaiting a response from Liverpool after holding further talks with Gareth Barry.
Liverpool have spent the summer chasing Barry, but have been unable to agree a fee with Villa for the midfielder.
O'Neill confirmed last week that he had sent his Premier League rivals a letter to outline the club's demands for their captain.
Barry has admitted his desire to join Liverpool, but returned to training with Villa on Wednesday as the situation remained unchanged.
Still waiting

The England international held further talks with O'Neill on Thursday and the Villa boss has confirmed there has been no progress on the matter.
"I've spoken to him this week and he reiterated a desire to join Liverpool," O'Neill told the club's official website.
"So the situation remains unchanged, we're still waiting to hear back from Liverpool."
Barry will miss Villa's Intertoto Cup tie with Danish club Odense BK on Saturday after picking up a foot injury upon his return to training.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMO him and keane will be our final signing of this market

[Scouser_Dave]

I think Rafa is considering playing 4-1-2-1-2 next season probaly the reason we are not chasing any wingers at the moment

If we do go 4-1-2-1-2
