Dalglish looking to the future

Former Liverpool star Kenny Dalglish is hoping the coming week will prove to be the start of a prosperous new future at Anfield.

The under-achieving Premier League side have failed to reach the heights expected of them this term and, with New England Sports Ventures seeking to oust current owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett, Dalglish is pinning his hopes on the group to turn their fortunes around.

"These have been depressing times at Anfield," he said.

"It is never nice when your football club are making as many headlines on the front pages as the back.

"This week looks set to be huge for Liverpool but there is still a feeling of uncertainty because nobody can guarantee what is going to happen next.

"I feel particularly for the fans, who must find it difficult to know which way to turn. I am sure the majority of them are quite happy that the club might be sold but what they really want is to see Liverpool move onwards and upwards from here.

"Let's hope we can and that things work out. Liverpool is usually a glass half-full kind of city, and The Kop are renowned throughout the world for their humour and spirit."Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
