Liverpool agrees bank debt deal
Liverpool Football Club - which owes two banks £350m - has renegotiated its debt with the Royal Bank of Scotland.
Club owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett are believed to have extended the £290m RBS debt for another year, but agreed to pay back £60m.
Negotiations between RBS, Wachovia and the owners have been prolonged, with fears the banks may call in the loans.
Latest accounts show Kop Holdings, the parent company of the Anfield club, lost £42.6m in the year to August 2008.
Annual figures showed that interest payments accounted for £36.5m of those losses.
New players
The club has continued to spend on new players as it looks to try and win the top prizes in the game, with Portsmouth defender Glen Johnson joining in a £17.5m move.
But the owners have failed to find the money to build the club's new stadium, with preliminary work on the Stanley Park venture halting during last season.
In June, Mr Gillett agreed to sell one of his major assets - his 80% stake in the NHL's Montreal Canadiens ice hockey team - in a deal which would ease financial pressures at the Premier League club.
Meanwhile Mr Hicks has been reportedly looking to sell off elements of his own sporting empire - which includes Major League Baseball's Texas Rangers and the NHL's Dallas Stars.
Liverpool was put on the market last year with a reported asking price of about £500m, but no sale was finalised.

Thought we looked really really good in the second half, albeit against a poor side.
To sum up:
-Voronin has decent link up play but a terrible finish on him, he needs to stay in the box at all times if he wants to score any goals.
-Benayoun is a quality player and the second most clever player after Torres IMO. I'd like to see him starting a lot of games for us this season but still not sure where he would slot in.
-Kuyt was quality today and is growing more confident every game. His form last season was awesome and I hope he continues it this season! Fey was right all along.
- Pacheco and Nemeth are both very talented forwards that need more experience and more first team games. Pacheco reminds me of Garcia a lot, quite pacy, good touch but sometimes his decision making lets him down. Still though I think he can be a quality player in the future, whether it's at Liverpool or not I don't know.
- Babel looked good for once. He's taking his man on a lot more in this pre-season, still remains to be seen whether he can do it when the serious stuff starts.
- Degen is shite.

I do.

Is Degen good enough to be a back up RB?
