well is it?

the long 3 year + saga that has drained all the love out of football for many of us liverpool fans finally be coming to an happy ending

what does everyone think? feeling it in water? hunches? psychic premontions lol , are we finally about to have a smile on our faces after 3 years?

i'm gonna cautiously (been here too many times) say yes , i think too much noise is coming out , have rbs had enough? is broughton et al getting their collars felt? is hicks/gillette seriously close to losing everything? has torres/gerro/cole all been told what is gonna happen with a takeover?

i liken it to a boxing match

rounds 1-3 , was the initail interest few years back , a bit of finding each others feet , in the early rounds

rounds 3-6 , bit more pressure being applied now , this was when the yanks realised they were perhaps onto a loser with lfc , no stadium , arguments through the media with rafa , klinsmann etc etc

rounds 6-9 , some real pressure stating to be shown now , boxers very weary of that sucker punch , in this case it was the media , fans protests , sos , ex players , radio phone ins , the yanks where finally starting to get the message they were in a scrap


rounds 9-12 , this is the time , death or gloryn and this has been going on for the opast few months , takeover talks , until finally they saw the light in april and put the club up ffor sale and now we all await the grand finale......





the knockout punch!!!!!! the one that no boxer usually gets up from , the killer blow , the final nail in the coffin as you might say , who it is we are yet to find out , it looks like kenny and we all on paper hope it is , whatever the result , years of pain and defeat will all be erased in that final punch , that armageddon


and then comes the glory , and usually pedigree fighters are like some powerhouse football clubs




THEY RULE FOR MANY MANY YEARS!!!!




rejoice everyone - the final hour is at hand!!!!

I continue to have mixed emotions about this whole saga. I read one article and I am convinced we will get new owners, five minutes later I don't know what to believe. I am sitting on the fence at the moment. Maybe slightly leaning towards a positive outcome, but that could just be wishful thinking.

I am devastated by the situation our club is in at the moment to even hear the words Liverpool Football club and administration in the same sentence sends shivers down my spine. I don't think it will ever get to that, but I think something needs to be done fast, this could be our last opportunity before G&H drain the club of all it's dignity. The problem nowadays with football is that it is all business and not so much about the devoted fans.

I only hope the situation is solved in the coming weeks whether it is with Kenny Huang or another business man because let's face it anything is better than what we have now. Remember - don't build your hopes up.

i've just said more or less the same thing to my brother on the fone. we were both trying to work out what would actually happen if huang bought the debt and wether the rbs would see g&h walk away without a penny

still trying to keep my feet on the floor but for liverpool to be taken over with someone who has a much money as the papers are sayin and to see the yanks walk away with absolutley nothing after bleeding our club dry for the last 3 years... out of all the historic moments this would go down as one of clubs biggest ever achievements.

I agree with the general theme of all of the above comments. I think we are clearly at the end of the road with the greedy yanks. However i would be very surprised if a deal is done in time for us to buy some transfers with extra funds this window which i think means torres is as good as gone next summer as he isnt going to want to wait another year for development next year.

It is a dream scenario that they sell in the next 2 weeks but sales do not go for through that quickly. Especially when G&H will do anything (the syrian) to get a higher price.

I don't believe the chinese guy will get the club as he wants a sale in the next week, if as bbc are reporting we have several bidders i doubt this will happen. Also gillet and hicks are two very clever and greedy men they and there advisors would have forseen a number of scenarios and at no point i tell you now is the club going to sell with them making no money. Not a chance in hell.

i'm not trying to put a dampner on the Huang bid but can you honestly see Hicks & Gillett entertaining this offer? I think not.

Regardless of the rumours that neither are involved in the sale of the club i can't see that being the case but i'm clutching at straws that it actually happens.

The news from China is that this guy has nowhere near the money required to buy Liverpool, invest in a stadium etc. I think it's BS. I don't see a genuine buyer on the horizon anytime soon.

my understandin is he wants to buy our debt of rbs, which means that H AND G would owe him 350 million and that he could put pressure on them to either find another buyer to raise the money or sell the club to him for a smaller fee, maybe im wrong

I dont know the ins and out either but from what I gather if Kenny boy gets hold of the debt, the yanks with be well and truly boned, that way they cant stop anything.

Remember what Dunk-o-son said about takeover bids hitting the press? Generally indicates that it isn't going the bidders way & using the press to apply pressure on the relevant parties.

Besides, not convinced by this Kenny dude. And even more so the fact he's in a partnership in trying to takeover LFC.

I want Liverpool's next owner to be the mighty sum of ONE. ONE leader. ONE vision. ONE decision maker.

I don't know about you folks but my faith still lies in the following;

'ADSK2010$+SOONYNWA'

In Dunk I still trust! wink
