Re: DIC: takeover thread
POsted by dup45 on RAWK

First post here, so im probably going to get shot down or ignored

The announcement is coming tommorow. Something along the lines of Hicks is going to buy out Gillet's shares, and that Ian Ayre (Commercial director) is going to become the CEO, Parry will be sacked

Also....Gillet wasn't stuck in snow in colorado...he was in London in the same hotel as Ayre

The from response Ben S

Fairly sure he isn't, there's a chance what he is saying may be true and no I'm not going to elaborate.

Re: DIC: takeover thread
If Hicks buying out Gillett puts an end to this thread then I am 100% in favour of it. I can't help thinking that if DIC were really serious something would have happened by now. Surely Gillett and/or Hicks aren't in a position to play hardball with DIC. I want answers.

Looks like someone's already told Parry.

I know this game. You're trying to lure us into dropping shitloads of insults on that guy, and then you're gonna announce that it's actually you, and we're gonna feel embarrassed. I'm not falling for it!

Re: DIC: takeover thread
Gillett said he wont sell to Hicks. So am guessing he wont be selling to Hicks. Lets just hurry up and get the whole thing sorted!

Do you really believe what either of them say?

Re: DIC: takeover thread
I keep hearing about how DIC are sitting tight and ive even said myself that DIC are confident that Hicks will crack and will need to sell but it seems that isnt the case and i think the fat cunt has managed to get investment for himself.

Obviously im worried about him been the 100% owner but im also worried about what terms he will be offering the potential investor to get them interested.

Chances are Hicks will agree to more or less anything to get someone to buy lend him the cash and that is the worrying thing.

Re: DIC: takeover thread
Could Hicks just be blagging head in order to force DIC in to action?
