Just what they said, so we can only take their word for it. Any loans (which are unlikely, their words) would be secured against NESV as a whole, so no one 'club' is to feel the entire burden, or something.

Surely coming to the UK to is the worst possible decision yet made by them?
They have beef with RBS et al, with regards to a UK company.
If they wanna try their luck they have no option but to come try round 2 of the UK courts again
would have thought Lord Grabiner and his team would have scared em away for life, because they got owned in the courts, hard.

I assume that the ruling Judge Floyd gave yesterday gives them no choice but to have the case heard in the UK.
He ruled that the matter could only be heard in the UK and if they did not withraw their case by earlier today, they would be held in contempt.

Would you risk a group of business in that way?
Have just read the complete statement from Hicks legal team - Says they are returning to the High Court in the UK for one reason only - to over-turn the ruling which states that their client has no legal right to pursue matters [over the clubs sale] in a foreign court.

Hicks interview on SSN "soon".
Should be good lol
Preview - Hicks" Board are crooks and swindlers. We tried to pay RBS back, in full, many times today, but were refused by RBS. Liverpool fans think its over? well i have news for them, its definitely, not, over."

Don't say that to Leeds fans
Don't say that to many fans outside the 'big 4' either. "It can't get any worse" shows the arrogance of the fans of the big 4, it was about time something like this happened and I doubt it will be the end of it either. Welcome to our world.
My guess is, RBS rejected it because it was only going to make the club suffer much more.
Only way Hicks had money was a loan, more interest payments? and probably at higher rates then we were paying now.
With respects, their owners are no way near as bad as the cowboys.
Sure they have -some- debt, and dont make enough money as a club to compete financially with the big boys, but the club lives on.
We were probably months away, at best, from being completely out of money if Hicks and co had remained at the helm. And there's only one way the club's going from there.
-edit-
Been reading the comments from Dallasnews. Some guy there is like, pleading for someone to buy the Dallas Stars from Hicks, who is on the verge of losing this team as well due to unpaid loans (surprised anyone?)
And i thought, wouldn't it be hilarious if, when the team eventually goes to auction (its inevitable imo) that NESV ended up buying it
just to rub salt and all that.

Hicks on now he looks like he's just been shot. Perfect.

My guess is that there was no genuine attempt to repay RBS. He was no doubt bargaining for time with them; promising some sort of financial arrangement was close and to give him a little longer etc.
edit: This article reveals a few details about his 'attempts':

Hopefully people can explain it to me, but why the hell would any decent businessmen buy a football club?
Sink in 300 million for no return. Now they have no debt they will make what 55 million a year? Even if they take half that a year the fans will be whinging about being fleeced by people decent enough to clear the debt. Not only that they need a new ground, look at what that has done to arsenals spending, again that would have fans making youtube videos with more celeb scousers.
If this was the 80's or 90's I could see the point but anyone looking at the premiership these days can see not a lot of money will be made on the value of the club and the figures you have to sink into the team each year now the billionaires are playing at laundering money just doesn't make any financial sense that I can see.
Unless of course your going to use them to borrow against again.
So whats the point of these people sinking 300 million into a club that they really have no connection to?

Something to spend money on? i guess.
If you can buy everything you want, and live comfortably and have huge savings already then what else are you going to do with your cash? not much point in banking it for the hell of it.
cannot believe he just blamed Rafa for 'wasting' his 'hard earned cash'.
Hard earned? yeah, it was really hard to sign your name at RBS.

If they make us successful then in the future they should be able to sell us on at a profit.
Internet Terrorists haha.
Also - more crap.
"We had buyers with money equal to the owners at Manchester City, but they got scared off by the scaremongering of RBS about debt"
or something to that effect.
IF they have City's wealth, why would 200m debt scare them? seriously?

I feel sorry for the fat ****. Look at him, he's certainly aged in the 3 and half years he's been with us. Near death hopefully 
edit: and just in case anybody is mistaken; Hicks's 'it ain't over yet' and legal action could only be against RBS and the independent board members, not LFC and I'm almost certain he can't take action against NESV either.
