lol. I think he may be on a wind-up, especially with the 'b's replacing the 'ps' in his last sentance
 
But if they buy Gillett's stake in the club, isnt it Gillett that benefits?

I hardly think that the Arabs will pump further finances in if Hicks is not doing the same.

anita, i have no idea about the arabs.

it was purely accidental if it came accross as a piece of inside info. as always, i was posting info from rawk, which wasn't 'inside info' either. it looks like the guy had misinterpreted an article.

if i had inside info i would not be cryptic about it, for future reference.

I really have no idea who Aquaman is and how he knew I was Jewish.

Edit: he actually knew I was Israeli. He might have guessed it from me saying I and LTW wouldn't be allowed into Anfield if the prince buys into LFC.

Why?
[/quote]

I don't know anywhere near enough (and I suspect no one else does) about this prospective buyer to render an opinion on that aspect, but what I would say is that if it is a 50% sale, it would seem to be far better.

Our current owners don't seem to even communicate, which has resulted in all sorts of shit PR and instability. Granted, some good things have been done, but adding a third party in to an already contentious ownership struggle would seem to be a recipe for disaster. 2 against 1

Maybe so Farky.

I guess we'll have to just wait and see what comes from this.

George Gillett explores billionaire’s interest in Liverpool investment


An Indian billionaire is the latest wealthy individual to express an interest in investing in Liverpool.

Representatives of the unidentified man, who made his fortune in the energy industry, held talks with George Gillett Jr, the Liverpool co-owner, at a dinner meeting held at the Cipriani restaurant in Mayfair, Central London, on Sunday.

Gillett is following up the initial findings of Rothschild, the investment bank that he set the task of finding potential stakeholders in Liverpool. The American bought the club with Tom Hicks, his co-owner and compatriot, in February 2007.

Rafael Benítez, the Liverpool manager, dismissed fears that speculation about the club and their ownership could be a distraction to his team as they look to build on a run of six successive victories. “I spoke to George after the game against Hull on Saturday and all we talked about was football,†he said on the eve of tonight’s Champions League group E match away to Fiorentina. “I was relaxed because we had won.â€

Prince Faisal bin Fahd bin Abdullah al-Saud, a member of the Saudi Arabian Royal Family who claimed he is ready to make an offer of up to £350 million for a 50 per cent stake in Liverpool at the weekend, has confirmed that a deal has been done with the Merseyside club that will lead to the opening of two academies, one in Saudi Arabia and the other in North Africa.

The agreement signed by Gillett and Prince Faisal on behalf of the F6 group he chairs will also extend the interests of the American’s Nascar franchise.

“The memorandum of understanding with the George Gillett group will establish an exclusive partnership between F6 group, Liverpool FC and Richard Petty Motorsports team,†an F6 statement read. “His Highness Prince Faisal stated that the partnership with George Gillett’s group will be a good addition to F6. This partnership will provide a lot of investments in football, racing and sports media in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East.â€

Gillett is in Italy for Liverpool’s match against Fiorentina and has refused to speak on the record about his plans for the Anfield club or the possibility of incoming investment.
 
Saudi prince starts move to buy Liverpool stake


MANCHESTER, England (AP) -A Saudi prince has begun negotiations to buy out the 50 percent share of Liverpool held by co-owner George Gillett Jr.

Prince Faisal bin Fahd bin Abdullah al-Saud is carrying out due diligence, going through Liverpool's accounts, with a view to buying all or part of Gillett's share through his sports investment firm F6.

He has been given a period of exclusivity of several months in terms of negotiating with Gillett, F6 director Barry Didato told The Associated Press on Monday.

"The prince is looking to buy anywhere from 0 to 100 percent (of Liverpool), but he doesn't need to have a controlling interest,'' said Didato, director of strategic investment at F6.

"At the moment he is only working with George Gillett and I'd certainly think it would have happened by the end of the end of this year.''

Gillett would not be able to act independently of co-owner Tom Hicks and sell his 50 percent stake without the permission of the Texan. However, Hicks would be willing to allow 25 percent of the club to be sold, an executive familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Sunday. The executive spoke on condition of anonymity because the club is not discussing the situation publicly.

Prince Faisal, along with Didato, was at Anfield on Saturday to see Liverpool thrash Hull 6-1 when the deal with Gillett was signed. That agreement will also see the prince and Gillett explore building football academies and rolling out NASCAR motorsport in the Middle East.
 
Meanwhile, elsewhere in Stupidland...

FORMER Liverpool owner David Moores is staying away from Anfield because he is becoming increasingly upset with the club’s American owners.



Moores – a Liverpool fanatic – made £90million by selling the club to Yank pair George Gillett and Tom Hicks in 2007.

It’s understood club president Moores, 64, is unhappy because his privileges have been cut.

The former chairman was told he was no longer welcome in the directors’ box and told that any refreshments would have to be taken in the sponsors’ room.

In addition, a stunned Moores was informed that he could no longer travel to Champions League away games with the official club party.

As a result, Moores, who hardly ever missed a game, has rarely been seen around Anfield this season and missed yesterday’s 6-1 Hull thrashing – a situation, which he has told friends, is likely to continue.

The heart bleeds for this 'true fan' - it must be unbearable having to watch Liverpool in merely excellent seats with just a few perks.

MOUs are not worth more than the papers it is written on.
 
That's not entirely accurate, Mike.

Breaches of MOU's may attract some form of liabilty.

In any event, it's about academies and NASCAR.

Who cares?
