Key points since I tuned in.
1. First and foremost priority is to diligently examine the received bids and make it "absolutely sure" that the prospective owners have enough money and bank proofs to show that they have the money it takes to ...move the club forward.
2. Second priority is to sell the club asap.
3. They board has received some "written bids" but will not discuss names.
4. None of the parties that bid showed any guarantees regd the money they have.
5. When asked about the "RBS set for LFC take over" news in today's paper, said that the board and RBS have a good rel'ship and nothing will be done without the board's consent.
6. Cant guarantee date of sale. Dont want to put unwanted pressure by speculating a date. The whole process has been launched at Easter and as expected they've had bids by August but the date of sale is uncertain.
7. When asked about this season's targets, said he and the fans expect significant improvement from last season and Top 4 is something that will be looking at on a broader sense. The main aim after last season's debacle is to be hard to beat on a day to day basis and get as may pts as we can.
8. The board interviewed 5 candidates and they felt Hodgson was the standout choice.
9. The 5 live presenter is disappointed that not many European or English bidders is discouraging cos LFC has a massive support all over the world.
