Dubai International to make bid for Liverpool FC

[sonsofthedesert]

I'm not convinced you cant turn merchadising streams on that quickly but maybe I'm wrong

Bearing in mind the new TV money was payable this season and they have still loaned money for Torres and Babel begs the question where has the TV money gone, particularly after the CL run

I personally think we will have a drastically reduced transfer budget

I might be wrong but I think you will see £10-15 million NETT MAX

The new TV deal is for this season, therefore will not be payable until the end of the season as they will need to factor in league position at the end of the season. Think payment is supposed to be around June time.

Lecter - get that to the papers lad.

That explains perfectly the questions the journo's need to be asking.

Sky TV money is paid throughout the season if I remember rightly there is no single payment

In that case the figures scare the **** out of me as there appears to be a big black hole.
Can't be all of it as the club that finishes top gets £50m and the bottom one £30m, there has to be a bonus of between £0 and £20m at the end of the season for where you finish.

If they intend to continue in ownership of this club they need to explain how their decision to back out of promises made in legal documents lead to their rift with the manager, a rift that dates back to last May. And a rift which has had such a negative impact on the club.

That sums it up. They will go

All very silent today on the G&H front. No news good news?

It does give you renewed optimism that this may be going pear shaped in the background (although I can't see that happening tbh).

I've read on the Echo page just now that they're having difficulties tying the deal up, think it may be done tommorow or next Monday now. I think if it's not done by Monday then they're having serious problems getting the finance sorted.


Hopefully it will all go wrong for them.

Yeah, fingers crossed. Although if DIC were not interested you'd expect them declare themselves out by now.

I think the longer this goes on the better. No news really is good news in this respect. Even if he does cobble toghether a package I don't think it's over by a long shot.

Bear in mind that area are 5+ hours behind us so we may not hear anything until later this evening anyway.....

Are there moves going in the background to counteract ?

[Vermilion]

I reckon the loan deal is done and that the stadium downgrading plans are complete aswell.I think they are waiting for the momo deal to be completed to therefore complete the Mascha deal ready for a big press confrence on monday to unviel everything and to the fans.

They know they are hated,but by doing this they will show that they are behind the manager and hope to soften the blow a tad.

Could be, but did someone not say Rafa had been TOLD....Momo go's to pay for Skirtle.

[Exiled_red]

I think that's right, we have not been a very profitable club

If the summer signings ~£20m net were funded by the loans and we had ~£25m Champions league revenue and the extra TV money there is this season there are some serious questions the owners should be answering Like What has happened to this money??

The double negative obviously meant the opposite.

I mentioned that in a previous post.

Was that hidden within the verse of a crap song?
