Can you back that up?? just curious? Im not sure what side of the fence im on yet but time will tell, if nothing happens in the next couple of weeks then il have my doubts about his info.

Nothing concrete mate, I am just very sceptical about people who say they are in the know, but cant tell you, especially when they try and back up their credibility with mods or owners of sites. Then they come out with "I told you so statements" when they have actually said nothing. These insiders are just to draw people into the respective sites, the worst of the sites is Cocktalk for this.......

On Est there are a few genuine fella's who pass on some decent information, you will see which ones I think are genuine because I say thanks to them. Even on Est there are a few guys who flit in and out of the site trying to pass themselves off as in the know. Without mentioning names, they know who they are and a lot of folk on here know who they are as well.

At the end of the day you have to make your own mind up mate, you will soon see a pattern and then you will see who are genuine

Do you expect things to come out in the media straight away?

It doesn't work like that. Tom Hicks doesn't want the media involved. Dubai could be doing due dilligence for all we know.

I fail to understand why people think that if it's not in the newpapers, then it's not true.

I could be George Gillett telling you that I'm talking to the Qatar Royal Family and you wouldn't believe me because there's been no mention in the media about them.

Everyone likes to grasp at even the smallest snippets of media info, if it means something positive happening.

Otherwise we rely on gossip and supposed insider info.

You could be GG but you are not. I do not expect anything to be in the media, if it was it would probably be as true as your last statement.

I listen to factual things mainly like GG radio interview a few months back when he described his relationship with TH. This was fact not fiction;

Recently Parry said "All was good" between the owners. What does this mean? It could mean TH has had to eat humble pie as his finances are in a dire condition and the only way for him to survive is to build the broken bridges and try to find a solution, which looks like he will have to sell. Or it might just mean they are not argueing with each other, who knows?

Plus the Stadium is on hold, why? Lack of money? very possibly, have prospective buyers asked for this to be put on hold? very possibly. Etc......

You see it is very easy to put 2 + 2 together and get a number. It's also, easy to make out you are in the know and post this..........

I live and work in a world where I deal with facts every day, not fiction or assumptions

Sceptical, no?

They want to buy Ronaldo according to SSN



oh and that no-mark Torres....

That thing on George Gillett was a joke.

And I work in a world with facts and figures. But I also work with every assumption planned, and every scenario covered. It's just that with this whole saga, many people find it difficult not to look at other scenarios.

I realise GG was tongue in cheek.

There are many scenarios, more than many would imagine. Like I was saying earlier, people can read or listen to all the info that becomes available whether it be fact or fiction, they can believe what they want.

My belief is, yes something is going on behind the scenes. As to the status or the outcome I have no idea. I am just waiting for the facts

He's been on RAWK.

Journalists use RAWK as a basis for Liverpool news because it is that big a site. He's probably seen Shankslegend and his posts.

I'm being serious by the way.

That Oliver Kays source is ShanksLegend....more or less? I would hope he heard it elsewhere, lending weight to the recent rumblings of the takeover being back on the agenda, if he got it from SL then it's still just his source that we're going on, and means Kay hasn't heard anything new.

Oliver Kay is very close to David Moores and other journos such as Tony B....
He is a massive reds fan also

That's good, the more people that say they are hearing whispers about this the more i'm inclined to think something is afoot.

Although, the news that the Sheik has upped his bid, is not for me, a guarantee it will be accepted.........BY HICKS.
