That could be strategic, but I'll take it at face value for now.<BR/><BR/>B) That's why this is different. A default here potentially puts another face in charge of 1/2 of Liverpool (a number of dominoes have to fall but it's suddenly not that improbable). If that person (or group) has no interest in selling, then it doesn't matter waht DIC does short of offer eleventy billion dollars.Precious Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13254500384702034482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-48090634168078942262008-12-03T18:07:00.000-05:002008-12-03T18:07:00.000-05:00DIC wants to get in on a club, and if this shit ke...DIC wants to get in on a club, and if this shit keeps up hicks and gillet will be held over a barrel (omg possible oil pun) on the price. i have a feeling they are going to end up taking a loss on the sale that has to happen at some point.BackBergtthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01916269531937171514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-6291231815867492632008-12-03T17:40:00.000-05:002008-12-03T17:40:00.000-05:00Yeah, this is a little different in that someone e...Yeah, this is a little different in that someone else is bidding for the debt, and they are attempting to purchase it merely because 1/2 of Liverpool was put up to secure the loan. If Hicks is unsuccessful in his attempt to buy the debt he could be in real trouble here (again *could*). And DIC has nothing to do with this (unless DIC is that other party). And why is every Liverpool fan so certain that DIC is still sitting there as a white knight?Precious Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13254500384702034482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-49796957568438919162008-12-03T17:17:00.000-05:002008-12-03T17:17:00.000-05:00Nice one Keith, you firestarter!No, we won't becom...Nice one Keith, you firestarter!<BR/><BR/>No, we won't become Chelski, we'll just be another well-heeled, well-run club, and we certainly won't splash the cash as insanely and irresponsibly as Chelski did when it was still Chelski. I predict that most of DIC's LFC money will go making a new stadium a reality, as well as stabilizing things. Sure, we'll buy a couple here and there, but it won't be anything close to the madness and profligacy of Abramovich.Jim Hendryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15444416343340712432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-9129074241231312022008-12-03T17:05:00.000-05:002008-12-03T17:05:00.000-05:00So you're fine becoming the next Chelski, Tyler?So you're fine becoming the next Chelski, Tyler?Email us athttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06952127683665557204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-43242576398030219772008-12-03T16:53:00.000-05:002008-12-03T16:53:00.000-05:00I do enjoy the fact that whenever this little Hick...I do enjoy the fact that whenever this little Hicks/Gillett loansperiment does come to an end, DIC is just waiting to finally buy the club they've wanted for years.
