Say this does happen, will RBS care about getting the 'right' owners for LFC?

no coz thats not there probelm mate.

i think we all have to accept that it is going to get messy. The yanks do not care about anything but money, long term we should be ok even with a 9point penalty. there has to be an end sooner rather than later.

RBS actually do care as they are Government owned, to be seen destroying a football institution would be business as well as political suicide. the back lash would be immense. they would lose 1000s of customers.

Interesting article from Anfield Road, builds on the Guardian, Telegraph and Bloomberg stories. The ending is not exactly encouraging, it now not the 'right buyers' but 'any buyer'.

RBS ready to call time on Hicks and Gillett

even if RBS take over its still down to purslow and broughton as to who gets the ownership ..

Have faith

weve waited this fking long .. a few more weeks and months are going to kill anyone ...

Everyone's talking about refinancing with RBS but that's not my main concern. My major concern is that the 2 clowns refinances with another institution and kick RBS out of the equation (they can do that by paying every cent owed to RBS back from a new loan)... then we'll be screwed big time. If I were another financial institution out there, I'd be happy to take on this mega million deal with good interest rates to boot.

I think this possibility can happen and it could just well go down that way.

I dont think any bank or institution will refinance them, the bankruptcy cases that both have going on will see to that, but I wouldn't rule out a private backer coming in for them.

The scrutiny that banks are currently under has actually done us a favour, a few years back a bank may have taken a punt on the twats but they wont now.

One thing we can be sure of is that the next month is going to be full rumours and counter rumours, promises of a sale, nightmares of administration and probably ditto coming out of the club. Fun times

It's pretty obvious (and anyone would do the same thing) that buyers are waiting for the October deadline and buying the club at a lower cost.

Sorry to be cynical but football is all about money so there's a risk of getting shi**y owners again. I'm not even going to speculate as to who they are and what they will be like. I've seen some people speculating that Purslow and Broughton have a say in who buys the club but seriously none of us know that, why would they have an influence on RBS?. All we can really predict is a buyer is looking for the best price possible. I believe things will happen in October. I'm just hoping it's someone reliable and fairly honest. Fingers crossed.

Its the 'rabbit out of the hat' private backer scenario that worries me most.

What we need is someone with money, with an honest hardworking guy who wants a steady spend it would take some genius dealings to get us back to top 4. I hate saying this, believe me I do, but if you look at how much we have spent relative to others we have gone backwards, and our best players are unlikely to stay if serious investment doesn't come in (something that has already started to happen). My worry is that RBS gets a phone call saying yeah sure we will buy the club for the value of the debt, RBS say brilliant not our problem anymore, and we get left with owners who aren't gonna spend what they need to.
