LFC SOLD to NESV.

Re: LFC SOLD to NESV! (We know this as the fat man's been stung)

[quote author=Judge Jules link=topic=41783.msg1197364#msg1197364 date=1287149287]
Hicks has *a* case, but he still has the job of proving that case and I think the odds are as much against him as they were over here.
[/quote]

I think he has a pretty strong case once you remove the urgency, the time factor.

If he says he didn't think that the value was met and that he was always going to pay off the debt somehow, a judge could look quite sympathetically at that.

The thing is, RBS should indemnify NESV and thus the club, as they are the ones that didn't take the dosh from Hicks today.

From the Guardian

"It would seem that the only remaining formality now is for NESV to secure indemnity from any damages resulting from H&G's planned suit. This can be an insured risk otherwise they would seek undertakings from the legal sellers," emails Larry Morris.

And, I would expect a counter-suit by the club not only against the Hicks/Gillete holding companies, but the two as individuals, claiming damage from their attempts to hold up a legal sale and damages from their frivolous lawsuit that hangs over and devalues the club for the new shareholders.

Thing with the indemnity is it depends on how they are purchasing from RBS -

most probably RBS will not offer any warranties as this is a toxic debt just short of a fire sale - in the past when ive dealt with RBS or HBOS for purchasing properties under administration or buying the debt they havent been forthcoming with any warranties at all - irrespective of the value of the deal.

You can't remove the time factor. The debt fell due today, and that's after Hicks has defaulted on it already in the past. As for value not being met, Broughton's (winning) argument in the UK case was that the club's value is what bidders were prepared to pay. Hicks is going to have to prove that the sale process undertaken by the board was at best insufficient and at worst fraudulent. I can't see him managing it.

Well I hope it becomes RBS' problem, with all due respect to them, because we don't need another big black cloud of uncertainty hanging over us, preventing us from being able to spend anything significant.
[/quote]

They'll have underwritten/insured it anyway, so it'd be the job of someone at Lloyds or similar to pay. Saying that, I hope those cunts don't end up with a penny.
 
Re: LFC SOLD to NESV! (We know this as the fat man's been stung)

My optimistic but cautious hat is still on,

It won't be taken off until I see the New Englander with an LFC scarf!

Having said that its great news.
 
Re: LFC SOLD to NESV! (We know this as the fat man's been stung)

Its happening without a doubt. The press (who by the way, are thick as shit to a man) are just waiting for a statement
 
Re: LFC SOLD to NESV! (We know this as the fat man's been stung)

Is this really all done and dusted.

Has the LFC press conference started?

It shows what a state Scottish football is in when debts of 2M have forced a first division side into administration.

Re: LFC SOLD to NESV! (We know this as the fat man's been stung)

One last act before NESV deal to buy #LFC complete. Group waiting for confirmation that RBS has received cash.

Re: LFC SOLD to NESV! (We know this as the fat man's been stung)

Maybe we could save Dundee? LFC, I mean, not 6CM. All we'd have to do is send them Christian Poulsen. I'm sure they could flog him off for at least £2m - and we'd be no worse off. Great PR too...

I've never understood why there are two Dundee clubs though - is it really such a big city?
