Decent chance he would have changed the name to "Liverpoo" for month to make 200.000 people on Twitter with names like Abby52352652 congratulate him for his epic meme

With this being Liverpool and me being a United fan aside him owning a football club would be utterly horrible for that football club, its fans and the wider community that use the football club and supporting it as a local hub.

I already think there’s enough scumbag billionaires in football we REALLY don’t need the worst one of the lot.

Oh please not this again. If Musk wants to know about Internet Terrorists then he can ask Mr Tom Hicks and Mr George Gillett.

A far-right foreign government official taking over a club with powerful local pride in a city with strong socialist history would be quite something to witness lmao

Honestly I'm just glad to see one of these shitty articles where he isn't linked with taking over Cheltenham Town!

I genuinely believe that people from Liverpool would riot in the streets if this ever happened. He's the complete antithesis of everything that city stands for and believes in.

Half of them don't even like FSG owning the club.
