[Silly season]

SSN hasnt gone to swany to ask about whats going on for a while... even where nothing has happened they ask so whats going on?

 

have they all just fucked off home and not told us?

the 3k per hour lawyer

 

Actually I would just set him onto Hicks tbh. Gonna try and remain positive in thinking that the board can see a way around this. If not then I will actually need bit of a break because i have reached that stage were i cant say enough strong words to cool my total anger to that man.

 

Thatcher was never gonna be replaced for being a total bitch but blimey "that" has well and truly done so.

[redsfan]

where did you hear that?

 

Cant remember brain shut down but read somewhere he was in that meeting in voice, not 100% sure but i defo read it somewhere.

[redfromtubebar]

Please Tom Hicks, please let yourself or one of your sons show up in a boozer outside Anfield again.

? tariqpanja RBS in tight spot. Argued in court for a quick judgment bcos debt needs to be repaid on Fri. But this TRO won't be lifted then. What to do?

 

LFC haven't got the time to wait till the 25th after arguing publicly in court they needed to close the deal, administration it is then unless they pull something out of the bag between now and friday.

Do you think Hicks knows he can't win this and wants us to go into administration? Does this mean we would be expelled from the Europa Cup?

 

This is his revenge ploy?

Holy fucking shit, the nerve of him.

 

*shakes head*

However, reading it, I'm less worried than I was before. It's a pathetic load of emotive nonsense, with several factual inaccuracies.

12.38am: Owen Gibson has emailed me regarding the confusing issue over the 25 October hearing. "My sense is that Liverpool can apply to the judge to have it thrown out before then but this will buy Hicks and Gillett at least a couple more days - crucially, it will probably take them past RBS's deadline of October 15 and through the weekend."

[aladdinsane]

What's happened to the meeting? It looks like sky have just stopped bothering with it and playing a recording now.

[Silly season]

i just emailed SSN to ask has swany gone to bed or what?

 

told them to let us know if board are still there or not...

 

they wont answer but it was worth a try hahaha

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Holy fucking shit, the nerve of him.

But worryingly enough, it's been enough to stop the sale - so far.

revenge? of course, its quite clear he is a petty spiteful despicable human turd, but I bet somehow he actually benefits financially from us going into administration, at the moment he's not getting a penny from the sale so he's probably going to claw something back in administration after all the club is split into various bits, liverpool football club and kop holdings and the cayman island and delaware, who knows where it all leads, I can just see us going bankrupt with the fucking wanker grinning near the front of the queue getting some money back....wouldn't put nothing past him.

12.40am: The Liverpool board meeting has now ended. Is this square one?

[Silly season]

has it really ended though?

 

did anyone say anything?

[redsfan]

So what have they been doing since the statement I wonder.

 

Just wanna say Broughton, Purslow, Ayre, Henry keep going. We doing our best to keep up but we have faith just end it with this bastard once and for all! YNWA

It's a shame they've just awarded the Man Booker Prize, this would have had a very good shot at it. As a work of creative and innovative fiction, it's only matched by Jaimie Kanwar's film script.

The administrator will sell to the highest bidder, which will bring all sorts of parasites into play.

[Hareymonster]

Surely the Yank cun*s are in contempt of the high court in Londonn? Surely - they have ignored the verdict!

[WhiskeyJar]

12.45am: Owen Gibson has also been tweeting about the TRO: "why #LFC may take TRO seriously: US biz interests-contempt risk; hicks met broughton there; kop investments based in dallas; er, that's it." Elsewhere the highly informative Tariq Panja tweets: "RBS in tight spot. Argued in court for a quick judgment bcos debt

[Silly season]

is the meeting over now then or what?

 

now what happens?

 

i feel really lost now...

[WaltonRed]

I expect David Buick on SSN kicking off in the morning.

 

Not one expert mentioned he could do this today so i'm hoping he's just blowing hot air.

 

He'll know loads of judges in Texas, any one of his good ol' boys would sign this for him even on a whim.

[TheDrowningMan]

If administration does occur we'll go to one of Hicks' financial 'friends'. Guaranteed. I'm wondering how the Premier League would deal with the points issue - It would look terrible if they deducted as a result of this sort of thing and I'd wager that they could leave themselves open to significant legal action once the High Court ruling is ratified once and for all.

12.50am: "I understand that you must be getting a million emails right about now, and have information pouring from everywhere, but can you answer this?" asks Jack Vickers. "What is the likely outcome of all this? In plain English? What is most likely to happen?"

 

In plain English? I have no real idea. My gut feeling, though, is that NESV will end up owning Liverpool.

 

12.45am: This from the Dallas Observer Blog, containing quotes from Hicks and Gillett's lawyer:

 

I just spoke with Stodghill, who says his office is being "innundated with angry e-mails from Liverpool fans." I asked him: How does a Dallas court have jurisdiction over proceedings initiated in the U.K. He says: Royal Bank of Scotland is registered to do business in the state of Texas; and, of course, New England Sports Ventures is U.S. based. Also being sued is Liverpool chairman Martin Broughton. And, says Stodghill, "We allege in the lawsuit he committed some of his tortuous acts in Texas in meetings with Mr. Hicks, so we're suing him in part based on conduct here that did harm to Texas residents."

 

Hicks and Gillett's £237 million debt to RBS is due Friday. So, then, what happens between now and then, as the TRO hearing is set for October 25? Says Stodghill, what happens in the next two days "remains to be seen." As in: "There could be an additional fight at the courthouse over the TRO -- that could potentially happen. There could be discussions with the board to evaluate the higher offers. The one offer they're refusing to evaluate is £100 million over NESV's. And there could be discussions with RBS."
