Thats all the confirmation needed. This is just an excuse to not spend in January.

 

Looking that way to me. There might be interest, but I can't see anything happening so quickly.

 

Just a larger scale, more infuriating version of 'we tried ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ '.

I don't know if im kidding myself or not but I've got a genuine feeling that this time its real/happening, based on fuck all really apart from hope.

 

We're all hoping for the best, but past experience of this shitbag owner really does destroy the same hope.

What I can see killing any deal based on my fantastic knowledge of finance and business in general, is sports direct.

 

The business is worth a good bit more to Ashley than an independent / non arsehole would value it. Due to the free and huge exposure sports direct get.

It was estimated the advertising was worth £25m a year to sports direct. So for Ashley to let it go he'd understandably want way more than the market value of the club. Unless as has been mentioned, he leaves but sports direct get a ten year sponsorship deal. Euuurgh.

Aye, I’d take it. If we are being bought out by a rich individual who wants to make us a competing force with funds then they will have to do down the advertising routes. This would mean that they would likely buy out Soorts Direct in anyway, much like Chelsea has bought out various shirt manufacturers contracts.

I think for mike now it's about his new project the "Selfridges of sport". The only problem is how tied in is our club shop with sd?

Id hope anyone could maybe factor the advertisement into the sale price. Sports Direct are supposed to be paying for the advertisement now anyway.

 

Supposed to be. They mentioned the possibility in the accounts one year and it's never been raised again. :rolleyes:

 

To buy out the exposure SD gets in the Premier League, I can easily imagine Ashley adding £100m to his asking price. It's the reason any objective valuation of the club is pretty meaningless IMO.

Amanda Stavely apparently holding talks with FSG for a potential Liverpool takeover according to reports...

 

Leading financier Amanda Staveley has made initial soundings about Liverpool’s availability, according to reports.

 

The Sunday Mirror say that Staveley, who runs PCP Capital Partners, a fund with global assets of more than £28billion, wants to acquire the Merseyside giants.

 

The investor was at the 1-1 draw between Newcastle and Liverpool last weekend – although it was reported she was set to meet with Mike Ashley over the potential sale of the Tyneside club.

Just the Mirror trying to stir the pot and put their own spin on a story.

 

Every other outlet, official and unofficial have said that she’s in preliminary talks to buy us, even saying she’s visited the Stoke game a few weeks earlier.

 

She wasn’t there for Liverpool, she’s been interested in them in the past but now she’s moved on from them.

Which official outlet has said she's in talks to buy us ?

 

Seemed suspicous that NDA's had apparently been signed but not with her.

The Times amongst others have said that she’s held informal talks with us. This thread is full of such information from multiple respectable sources.

We have two NDA's signed anyway. She's not the only interested party. If any of it is true.

 

3 ndas if you believe the times, lets see who else reports the Liverpool bid other than the mirror. Still have hope :lol:

 

Edit: I doubt you'd ever get confirmation from club/proposed buyer untill completion.

Preliminary/informal, whichever, not much point in holding any talks with us if she's serious about buying Liverpool.  I mean its two very different levels of investment.
