DIC latest - the largely wild speculation thread

[Gazmo1]

Feel a bit sorry for old Gillette now really.

The best a man can get?

They can only dillute Hicks stake with Hicks' agreement

Hicks could just sit there and say put your £80 million in I'm doing feck all

I dont understand how DIC are going to win this from a minority holding and force Hicks to do anything. The devil is in the details I suppose and the Hicks Sports group sell off and in particular the "subject to stringent minority shareholders rights" comment coupled with the report they are transferring the debt to one of their own subsidiary companies and fiancing the stadium are important factors in how they will gain the upperhand

The worst thing is its going to mean the scenario doesnt end, this is going to be a long term project and it could be years before Hicks is gone

But if the loans are transferred to DIC controlled financial institutions, which IMO they'll probably do, to get better interest rates, wouldn't that mean that in fact the club is controlled by DIC

which report is that re the debt/subsidiary company Lecter? And why would they be taking over the whole debt including Hicks share?

Time to get rid of parry and moores as well.stuff that honorary title bull**** .

So what some are saying is that Hicks will be the Majority Share holder on paper, but not when it comes down to running the club, controlling power etc. And that the reason for this is to do with Hicks other American Interests, & technicalities there in.

If that's possible to achieve, the contracts are going to be a complex set of documents.

I suppose if Dic wanted to be really nasty, in the event of any future impasse, they could ruin every business Hicks has. Theoretically. Although i base that on the various things iv'e heard, on how much power/wealth & contacts they have world wide.

Actually I'd prefer it if they stay on board because it's safe to say now that they love the DIC.

Something like that. The other thing is that Hicks wants to float his sports business including LFC privately to raise capital so this would further dilute his interest in LFC I would have thought? So perhaps he wont be the senior shareholder for too long?

Moores staying fair enough, what USE would Parry have or be, Dic will have better people to do HIS job. Wouldn't they?

loving the DIC is one thing...but i dont think DIC would give them any.They were greedy *******s who went for 2 instead of one.

what warrants moores stay???...we regressed under him and he caused this entire fiasco

[Sarb]

Moores and PArry will be gone. Replaced by Ansari and Stavey who have already shown more business savvy than those two numpties.

Has this been posted yet?

DIC may take great delight in booting both of them out after they shafted them for the yanks.

Actually they will more likely replace Foster and Georgey.

Parry will probably be sacked or released

Moores might hang around for a while imo.

He has voting right though doesn't he?? Surely that could help DIC?? Altho if Hicksy has control he could just take his voting rights off him
