Graham seemed to give notice earlier in the year, it seems Ward’s announcement has been short notice.
It really doesn’t surprise me that one cog goes all 3 go, maybe it’s something we needed to consider when Edwards chose to pack his bags.
It does feel like the FSG project is now winding down. The major concern I have is what happens this winter, as we need to make a signing.

they wont mind changing it up if they can get those three guys…
If the groundwork wasn’t already in place, we were always already fucked.

True but considering the club is about to collapse according to some who is going come?
If I’m honest I’m more concerned with the fact we still haven’t announced a new medical lead.

I’m really not sure why Apple would? I think this is rumour being made to appear as concrete.
Maybe with the Microsoft guy buying us they want a new battle.

I assume someone from Apple would look to purchase not Apple in itself.
I do think it’s going be that Tory bloke who was interested in Chelsea. Anyhow wrong place.
Anyhow interesting times is the club seems in complete flux or is this just silly season due to the lack of a transfer window.
Klopp would have likely know Graham was off however looking at the time scales.

A major surprise as Julian Ward informs Liverpool he will step down as sporting director at the end of the season.
What is going on in the backroom?? Something really bad is brewing in the backroom!
We better get in actual world-class staff or we are truly fucked if we cannot get Bellingham or Caicedo!

We’re going to play baseball from January.
Real shame. Joyce mentions Klopp having more say on transfers over the last 12 months. Maybe they are bringing him data on players and he is fixated on certain ones. The transfer team might simply be coming to the end of it’s shelf life.

yep, maybe Klopp having more power is an issue… i mean who the fuck knows at this point
Sadly we know very little and I don’t think the Journalists do eithier.
We don’t know what FSG are seeking to do and we don’t know what they have said to Ward, Graham’s decision seems to have been months ago rather than in the last day or so. FSG would have had to replace Graham, potentially the suggestions have not pleased Ward.
Alternatively if the sporting model is being relooked at this has impacted on Ward’s decision. I do think the sale or acquisition of a sizeable part of the club is far down the road and maybe the new guys want to switch focus hence Ward has gone.
Alternatively Edwards has a new role and wants to bring Ward in or even any new guys want Edwards back.
The clubs ownership needs to be sorted but more importantly for the here and now we need this medical lead to be appointed.
I wonder what Joyce has said is what prompted Ward to quit, let’s be honest they didn’t just dream it up in the last day or two when they found out about Ward.
