LFC SOLD to NESV.

Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

Statement from LFC:

We are delighted that the court has clarified the issue of board composition and has removed the uncertainty around the sale process.

We will now be consulting with our lawyers and planning for a board meeting tonight. A further statement will be made in due course.

TONIGHT!!!!
 
Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

There was a lot of talk of Huang floating in the background yesterday. I don't understand why he would do business this way when he had the chance to bid for the club and probably get it cheaper weeks ago.
 
Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

Has any credible news source ever mentioned a link between Huang and Mill?

Seems bizarre but that's also the rumour I heard.

If we're going to post libellous shit this is definitely the thread to hide it in.
 
Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

I expect the Chinese Government is very frustrated. I know I hate pulling my own Huang out before the deal is closed.
 
Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

*Cackle*

Doc - that's if Huang really is poking his nose in again. I'm not as sceptical as rurikbird about the "Mirror" report, but I'm not taking it as gospel yet either.

Nothing about Huang was ever shown to be credible.

I'm completely sure I don't want Huang, he conducted himself like a rank amateur.

Yeah. He's just a businessman with no real money of his own to invest and everyone rumoured to have been backing him at the time publically announced that it was false. Plus his website is hilarious.

NESV are the only serious option we have.
 
Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

From ESPN Soccernet:

Board approval would be needed for Hicks to sell his shares - which of course would be rejected by a margin of three to two - but it would not be if Mill offered to pay the RBS debt for Hicks, with an agreement put in place for repayment at a later date.

Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

Pretty much everyone who has apparently been 'interested' in buying the club has conducted themselves like fucking amateurs from Kiri the Syrian ex footballer, to Huang, Lim, the Saudis/Kuwaitis who wanted to get involved. Everyone bar NESV, now I'm not saying they will be amazing for the club but at least they did everything properly conducted themselves professionally and tied up all the legal side of stuff pretty well (otherwise I'm sure Hicks would have walked all over them).

They have stood patiently on the side and waited for all this circus shit to settle down, and apart from a few tweets where Henry has congratulated people and clarified a few things nothing much has come from them. No threats to walk away, no promises of a gazillion pounds for players/stadium.
 
Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

Broughton is confident.

I'm off to bed, someone want to assure me I'm not going to have to deal with this all day tomorrow?

Huangs bid was serious, but a) he wanted exclusivity for i think it was two weeks and b) RBS/Broughton were insistent on him placing the funds into escrow - which he declined to do...

[size=12pt]Hicks and Gillett lift Reds restraining order [/size]

Reports claim Tom Hicks and George Gillett have now lifted the Texas court restraining order preventing the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) from completing the sale of Liverpool.

ESPNsoccernet understands NESV have a banker's draft ready to dispatch to RBS before the 1700 BST deadline on Friday to erase any lingering concerns about Liverpool going into administration.

However, the early lifting of the injunction could also be because Hicks and Gillett are keen to push through a deal via Mill Financial. Hicks is apparently looking to sell his shares to the hedge fund, which acquired Gillett's shares in August, and it would then pay off the debts (which have risen to £280 million) to keep the club out of NESV's hands.

Indications are, though, that RBS has been advised by their legal team against accepting Mill Financial's offer to do so and it is still unclear as to whether Hicks requires the Liverpool board's approval to sell his shares.

Poor Hicks is like a husband being kicked to the curb by his wife for younger buffer toy boy. All her friends and family depise him and the whole world bar Harry Redknapp is under the impression that the horrible husband deserved it.

Hicks must feel humiliated but fuck him. He got what was coming to him.

Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

guys heres the link for todays guardian coverage http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2010/oct/15/liverpool-fc-sale-live-coverage-dallas-hicks-henry

and this is the latest:

11.16am: Does this make the TRO question clearer? I think it does (a little): Associated Press reports:

A lawyer for Liverpool's owners says they will drop their court order in Texas blocking the sale of the club.
The move does not mean current owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett have given up their fight to stop the £300 million sale to the owners of the Boston Red Sox.
Lawyer Keith Oliver, who represents Hicks and Gillett, tells The Associated Press they are applying to withdraw the temporary restraining order when the Dallas court convenes at 7 a.m. local time (1200 GMT) Friday.

Re: LFC not yet sold to NESV (but we're getting there, maybe...)

I went to the cinema this evening in an attempt to keep myself away from sitting through endless hours of the guardians blow-by-blow coverage of this fucking shitfest.

Went to see 'The Town' - the ben affleck flick. The story? Two old money hungry fucking thieves stealing money from those who work for them, while the young stupid naive fuckers run around Fenway park - home of the red sox - trying to steal enough money to pay them off.

I kid you not.
