DIC latest - the largely wild speculation thread

[Vermilion]

The story is on their webpage now...

Can't be bothered to copy and paste it.

Really thought these big Denials were behind us, or hoped they were.

Hicks had problems to pay off a $50m loan recently, do anyone really think that he can come up with all the money he need to buy out Gillett?

Hicks will continue making denials even if/when he sells...

Think along these lines:

He only wants 2%

There's lots of bollocks doing the rounds but one thing is fact - Hicks is a cunt.

No offence like but I've had my fill of 'insider' info regarding DIC/Hicks. I've had more than my fill of the whole sorry episode. I just want them out.

I've believed for a good while that DIC will end up in control. I just want to see confirmation on the BBC or something. Not from 'cowtownred', 'redlady' or whoever else.

That's the most sensible thing that's been posted on this issue in a while.

Well said Shaggy.

And I reckon it's only a matter of time before he ****s off for good.

I really dont know FOR SURE what he's capable of, if he can make Bush a Millionaire, well who knows, anythings possible with the cunt.

As you say maybe he can't personally come up with it, but the USA is a big place, DIC's persistency to buy the club may alert someone to the fact, or just give them the inclination that Lfc would or could be a good investment.

I wont put anything past this **** till DIC have the shares in THEIR pocket, BOUGHT & PAID FOR.
I guess i'm to afraid to believe. Just Yet.

Tom Hicks ‘set to move on Dubai’
Mar 6 2008 by Tony Barrett, Liverpool Echo

A DEAL for Dubai International Capital to buy George Gillett’s Liverpool stake is imminent, it has been claimed.

Sources close to DIC today revealed Tom Hicks is ready to drop his resistance to George Gillett selling his stake in Liverpool Football Club to DIC.

An offer from DIC for Gillett’s shares remains on the table and should the American accept he would walk away from Anfield with a profit of around £40m.

Gillett is believed to want more and DIC remain insistent they will not be raising their offer but with talks still going on between the two parties it is thought a deal could be reached within days.

Hicks’ reluctance to enter into any sort of partnership with DIC is well known and on several occasions he has spoken of his willingness to use a veto to block any such deal.

But he has been in touch with DIC in the last 24 hours to tell them he will not stand in their way if they can agree a price with Gillett. He has also told DIC he is willing to enter into talks with them at the earliest possible opportunity to discuss the future of the club.

DIC’s growing confidence that a deal can and will be done saw them dispatch a representative to Anfield for last night’s Premier League game against West Ham.

The representative met with members of various fans group in a bid to gauge their opinion about the club and the best way forward for it.
He also witnessed first hand the latest protest by fans against the current owners with a demonstration which lasted the full 15 minutes of the half-time interval.

The Spirit of Shankly has already indicated it is ready to offer DIC a cautious welcome and would be prepared to enter into a dialogue with them.

I know, and can confirm, for a fact that a meeting between (seemingly randomly picked supporters) and DIC took place at Anfield last night and was very constructive.

Nothing more to add.

This (above) was the 1st Breaking news yes, it's been denied by Hick's now. Damn Him. On a positive note, Dic's meeting with fans, why, if not that they are sure. Bloody hell, talk about conflicting accounts.

Hicks will continue making denials even if/when he sells...
