...by not even attending the court case today...

"In the absnece of boardmembers, a vote can still be taken and if their is still amajority, new rulings/decisions can be passed.

The won 3-0, formed a sub committee and sanctioned a sale.

Hick's fault for spitting his dummy out whislt having a brew."

Things may still be safe.

The scenes outside the courthouse.

This is far more important than LFC. This is about football as a whole.

2.32pm: From Sachin Nakranioutside court: Hicks claims that the sub-committee became so ingrained that the directors started to refer to it as the "home team" in emails between themselves. One of which was accidentally sent to the owners at start of last week. Hicks claims that he only breached sales agreement by trying to oust two board members because the sub committee was a breach of the sales agreement in itself.

Eep.

:D at the home team

I dare say this isn't even just about football, but all sporting codes.

"Wouldnt make a difference if Purslow wrote Hicks a personal letter calling him a "decrepit ******* **** face!".......the fact is, the sale is legal and you cant sack the board because board members dont like you."

danroan H&G want a trial next week -Judge about to rule

TENSION

2.46pm: From court: G&H QC dismisses Friday's deadline and says that instead the owners and RBS are "locked into an agreement" until 1 November.

2.38pm: Much discussion about Mill Financial: my understanding is that, via its lawyers, Mill Financial approached Liverpool recently but were told "the club had already been sold". It has been suggested (by Tom Stewart via email) that "Mill Financial is owned by US Billionaire Dwight Schar, Chairman of NVR and Co-Owner of the NFL Washington Redskins". Checking that out...

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Well, at least this gives us more time on the loan, however, the quicker this is sorted the better.

But wouldn't RBS know this, there the one taking part in legal proceedings and that they said the deadline is friday, this could be another ploy?

Seems like they are saying the loan isn't due till Nov 1... however, like you say, RBS would know.

CONFUSION REIGNS SUPREME

I have NFI why they have just mentioned this now though!?!?!?!?!?

H&G want a trial next week -Judge about to rule

that was 11 minutes ago from Roan

whats NFI?

It's got to be a ploy to get the bank to extend the loan. Surely.

I can't make head nor tail of this. But surely the bank would know the due date for the loan.

Still imagining my 1am predo isn't too far off.

Please judge... be brave.

No fucking idea

your staying the fuck up with us... iv got uni at 9, if im staying up you can stay up

NO FUCKING UPDATES IS SENDING ME FUCKING CRAZY

Lord Grabiner QC is now speaking on behalf of the Liverpool board. He tells the court the two alternative offers for the club are "besides the mark" as it is the role of the board to find a buyer, so if they decide to go for NESV then so be it.
