Dubai International to make bid for Liverpool FC

[Craig_H]

Like Kurt, I'm praying you're right mate.

DIC sense that there's a rift between Gillett and Hicks and they're going in for the kill. let's hope it results in the two yankee cunts falling prey to them.

I think Gillett will ultimately prove to be key, in unison with Moores and Parry. Whilst the latter pair have no real say, Gillett will be swayed by them, if he hasnt already that is.

The financial difficulties make it tricky enough for Hicks, and i think Gillett will prove to be one obstacle too many for the slack-jawed yokel.

But I dont think the dust has settled in that regard mate. The yanks still want him out, I'm sure of that. I'm sure Rafa feels that his best chance of staying on next year is with the yanks gone, or possibly the yanks not being able to afford the pay-off for sacking him.

What i meant was that the dust had settled, with regards to the possibility of his sacking being 'imminent'. I genuinely felt that Rafa (along with plenty of us) would've considered this to be a serious danger in recent weeks and there was probably a time where he sincerely felt that he wouldnt survive until the summer. Now i think that fear has diminished.

But I have a lot of confidence that I will be sitting in this chair in a year's time.

This suggests to me that Rafa has had some kind of confirmation that the deal will proceed - that along with the noticeable change in his demeanour the last few days.

Won't fully believe it until I see the press conference though.

I said something similar a couple of days ago. In the interview after the Luton FA Cup game he was totally relaxed and smiling! Smug as **** in fact. It was palpable.

Just think there's too much weight behind it now and there's an immense amount of determination from the Dubai people. They're the sort of folk who strike you as generally getting what they want.

But the Arabs' determination needs to be coupled with our will to show the yanks they have no future at Liverpool in the eyes of the fans. we cant get complacent here. we need to hammer the message home to them.

[tomasjj]

It's not over yet, in spite of what Bascombe is saying. We need to mobilise. We need to keep it going. We need to keep this up. In fact we need to step it up a gear. They need to be made aware in no uncertain terms that they are not welcome at our club and never will be, and it is in their best interests to sell up and **** off.

Agreed.

We need to fight until they have boarded the ship back stateside.

[paulcooper4]

Yeah, i mean we could be wrong of course, but i couldnt imagine the Dubai people allowing so much of the saga to go public, only to be left red-faced again. Seems like they've either got something already tied up, or they're extremely confident of getting what they want...and with good reason.

Theyre worth gazillions so they know exactly how and when to attempt a hostile takeover and exactly how to do it. They have obviously been lying in wait for ages just waiting for the right time to pounce. The yanks are small fry to these fellas.

For them to go for the kill now, and to use the media weapon so blatantly, suggest they know they will succeed.

Fair enough. Yeah, he's deffo safe to the end of the season.

No disputing that mate, the emphasis must continue.

Until i see Rafa in a head scarf, i wont feel safe

Mr. Al Ansari qualified as a professional accountant in 1987 and is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales

he's already gone up in my estimations

[Dhav]

Agreed.

We need to fight until they have boarded the ship back stateside.

And I can't wait to wave that cancer goodbye from our club.

I agree coops. None of us really know much about them, but they certainly have an air of 'knowing what they are doing' about them.

They look more professional than G&H. I certainly couldnt imagine seeing the Sheik or Al-Ansari waving a wad of bank notes in front of Geoff Shreeves and giggling like a pair of retarded schoolboys.

This cant be emphasised enough mate. The more we kick up a fuss, the more the media will shout it out. And the media are our weapon. For once WE can use THEM ****s to get what we want.

Dont give up lads until the fat texan sings.

Which makes me wonder why we ended up with these two ****wits in the first place. May be it's because the laughably clownish way in which they conduct business is more in keeping with the style Parry and Moores were familiar with and they felt more at ease with the yankee ****s compared to the professionalism of the Arabs. Regardless, whilst Parry and Moores have any influenc eleft within the corridors of power at Anfield they need to do all they can to bring the yank cunts down from the inside. Coupled with fan power and the Arabs' determination, we might just get there.
