Reds reject £52million Owen bid

Not for sale...even at £52million!
Following our April Fools Day gag in which we claimed Michael Owen was bound for Old Trafford in the summer for £52million, we decided to run a poll on the site to see if you'd sell him if a bid of that amount came in.

Thousands of Liverpool supporters from all over the world cast their vote and 54.7% said they would not sell the striker for £52million. 45.3% said they would take the money and run.

We received hundreds of emails from supporters who were gutted when the news broke of our false report. One Red, Adam Clayton, of Kettering even reported the hoax to Football365, the well known football website that awarded Kop Talk with the prestige title of best fans site in the world at their last awards!

In our latest poll, we ask if you would welcome Lee Bowyer as a player if he was signed by Gerard Houllier. Cast your vote HERE.
