Going up for sale within days

[6TimesaRed]

Latest rumours doing the rounds in the wake of the ESL shitshow.

Apparently it looking like it is us that's going to be 'that' club

 

[HC]

Eh ?

 

[tomasjj]

sauce?

 

[Halmeister]

Nah. Doubt it.

 

[tombrown]

Must be true; bloke said, down the pub

 

[beejay]

More likely that Redbird Capital buy out Henry & Werner.

 

[jan]

waiting for The Firm to confirm this

 

[JurgenKlopp]

Sponsors pulling out.

 

[Fabio]

What's meant by the "that club" line?

 

[The Nomad]

Sponsors pulling out.

I don't see them pulling out. Just that they don't agree with it.

 

[tombrown]

I don't see them pulling out. Just that they don't agree with it.

 

[MomoWASright]

Who really cares who own us? The fans are getting bum fucked by whoever.

 

[MomoWASright]

“Major” partner? Oh do fuck off.

 

[tomasjj]

well within their rights to withdraw
don't understand why that is upsetting?

 

[bluebell]

 

[The Nomad]

Just waiting for the Firm to confirm.

 

[darkstarexodus]

I just got my tax refund, so good timing here.

 

[bluebell]

Let's say it's true FSG want to sell LFC, who has the funds to stump up £3bn? Bahrain and Kuwait as of yet don't own a club

 

[Markeh]

I just got my tax refund, so good timing here.

how many zeros is it off by?

 

[darkstarexodus]

how many zeros is it off by?

Dunno until I put in a cheeky bid and find out.

 

[Bradley]

We are stuck with them.

They are stuck with us.

Don't be expecting investment.

 

[Halmeister]

We are stuck with them.

They are stuck with us.

Don't be expecting investment.

Yep it's not like the showered us with money when they still had the pretence going either.

 

[keniget]

Sugar daddy please.

Exactly this. Choose your poison.... finance vehicle that will continue to look for opportunities to leverage the brand (in increasingly scrape the bottom of the barrel ways), or grubby sovereign power looking to PR themselves out of some human rights disasters.

The third option which actually requires the fanbase to sort their shit out is partial supporter ownership. Good luck with that.

 

[Glen C]

Going by John Henry statement I don't see them selling any time soon.

 

[tomasjj]

They are lizards, but be careful what you wish for. There are lots worse.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Henry’s apology

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

There's no way they'd put us up for sale, so soon after the last few days. They're businessmen and if they are to sell, they'll wait for better timing for a better price.

 

[Hansern]

I dont think they'll sell, and if anything the latest fall out might see them invest more this summer to try to win the fans back. That would be my strategy at least.

 

[davud graham]

If any fans of the six clubs who've changed their mind and apologised for their actions actually believe them and think they are genuinely sorry and sincere then they're fools. The only thing they might be sorry about is that they didn't get their own way and won't be getting the extra money that the super league would have provided.
Make no mistake they've treated the fans, players and manager with complete contempt and would do so again if they thought they could get away with it.
