Target all banks!

[Guest simon]

Ladies and Gentleman, there were stories earlier in the year which stated that Barcap had offered the owners a potential £300m refinancing package.

More recently, Chris Bascombe exclusively revealed that the owners have been seeking refinancing since June.

Tony Barrett of the Times has subsequently revealed that "The Times also understands that Huang was appalled by suggestions in banking circles that Barclays Capital, the investment bank brokering the deal, was contemplating becoming lead bankers in a new consortium involving Tom Hicks and George Gillett Jr, Liverpool’s present co-owners."

With the Huang takeover bid withdrawn and no other investors on the horizon, rather than targetting Broughton for criticism should we as fans not be targetting Barcap?

The prospect of Barcap potentially offering refinancing to Gillett and Hicks in October is catastrophic

I think it is time that we as Liverpool fans came together one more time to get the message across to ALL banks - NO REFINANCING FOR HICKS & GILLETT

 

Please could someone draft an email that we can ALL send

Good idea Simon.

 

I recall there being stories about Barcap offering £300m refinancing back in April.

 

Graham Smith of SOS said this morning that the union would be looking into claims that the owners have been seeking refinancing elsewhere.

 

We can't afford to stand still and need to continue to put pressure on the banks.

[coop]

Is it possible the Times were wrong and there are other bidders out there.

 

The owners are bound to look for refinance elsewhere as there not going to let October come along and not cover all the potential scenarios.

 

Whether they get refinance elsewhere is a totally different matter.

 

The sale process completes in October, not August like some would have you think so until then for me its a wait and see.

I don't think we can afford to mate.

[Guest simon]

Can I remind people that Lehman Bros is now part of Barcap and they have close links to Tom Hicks.

 

Lehman Bros and Hicks once teamed up to purchase Dr Pepper

[Guest simon]

There is no harm in people sending an email, It won't cost anything.

If someone can write us a draft email it will just be a simple copy and paste job

We can't afford to sit and wait.

We have been doing that for 3 years.

The prospect of the Yanks getting refinancing would be a disaster.

[njackets]

Scary thought, im in! Not enough of this goes on in here RAWK are all over this shit.

[Randy Marsh]

I honestly believe that a conclusion to this saga which sees Hicks and Gillett keeping the club in a new long term arrangement would mobilise fans in to taking the protest up to levels never before seen. Boycotts, pitch invasions and walk outs would become realistic possibilities.

 

Good idea Si, count me in on anything that gets going.

[zigackly]

RAWK are shit.

 

Thought you liked them?

[njackets]

Thought you liked them?

 

Haha very funny! You spend too much time in here mate, even when we're playing i've noticed! Maybe taking the forum a bit to serious?

For your information I boycott the match and I am not working at the moment. Not that it's any of your fucking business.

So you're boycotting because you're skint? Ok! Fair enough mate if you'd rather post in here when we're playing than going down the ground and supporting the team then thats up to you I suppose!

I'm not skint, I am signed off work for medical reasons at the moment, and I have been boycotting the match since the owners put debt on the club as I do not want to contribute to it's destruction.

 

Now stop stalking me just because I negged you, you little fanny.

I hadn't even noticed you'd negged me, im not even sure how it works and couldn't give a fuck really? (seems you do take this place to serious)

 

To be fair mate its you who came in this thread and had a dig at me and same in the other thread so im a bit of a rubbish stalker! I hear that boycoting the match line because of the yanks a lot, mostly by people who never wen't in the 1st place its became a bit of a convenient excuse!

 

There are enough moaning neggative bastards at the match these days anyway and I seen enough of that from you last season so maybe being on here's the best place for you! Go ahead 'Neg' away!

[mattomac]

Writing to Mp's might be a good idea too

[Guest simon]

Anyone who wants to add addresses to put on the email. Please feel free, every little help.

Why don't you fuck off over there then Superfan. If you don't like it here you know where the X is,

[Marko121]

Don't ask how I know this as I cannot say but talks with Barcap about a re-finance started last Wednesday

[roon]

sorry for sounding like a stupid fuck but by reading these posts does that mean their is a chance of these 2 dicks keeping hold of our club and all this talk of a sale from april is bullshit.

[Kopite Pete]

I cant see how these two could manage this, considering the loan is worth more then the club.

[ronnie38]

Don't ask how I know this as I cannot say but talks with Barcap about a re-finance started last Wednesday

How do you know?

[Trucker Paddy]

People going on about a refinance, ffs lads we can't pay what we owe £400m and rising,we won't be getting a refinance, 1 way or another this ends in October
