Another cracking episode.

Joy a bit hard done by there imo.

Meh, all 3 could have gone. Joy looked like a complete shrinking violet- no place for her in the cut throat world of business IMO. Black girl is very Ghetto!

I know which one Cheryl Cole would fire

Wouldn't mind seeing Joanna and Cheryl in a nightclub bathroom.

Would be a Joanna backer in any fights. Joanna got previous too.

Liverpool just minutes away from issuing a statement about ownership and two muppets release this.

News reaches us that a Texas court has issued a restraining order on the sale of the club, calling it an "epic swindle".

10pm: Further to this story about a Texas court issuing an injunction on the sale of the club, Owen Gibson writes that Hicks and Gillett are claiming £1.6bn in damages.

Will this ever end!

Texas court cannot have jurisdiction in this matter. For God's sake Hicks and Gillett have already submitted themselves to the jurisdiction of the English Courts with regard to Liverpool FC and their contractual status with the club. I'd be astounded if that pans out to be legitimate and has any legal effect.

Why would they do this then? What could they achieve?

Would the Texan courts be able to prevent the New England guys from taking-over the club?

[Opr]

I was wondering if it was an attempt to stall things just enough so the club is not sold come the 15th which would force it into administration. The outcome would be the same but would mean Liverpool would need to eat a nine point deduction. Could they really be that bitter to try and put the boot in even further before they leave ?

Can they stop other American reg'd companies from buying their property ? even if it's aborad ?

From The Telegraph....

"The jurisdiction of the Texas order in the UK was at first unclear, but sources said the impact of the action could but RBS, which has considerable US interests, Broughton as BA Chairman and NESV in contempt of a US court".

As a Liverpool fan, much as I hate G&H I almost have to doff my hat at their tenacity and at their ability to throw a late spanner in the works.

There'll be no hat doffing around here mister.

[Kayroo]

Would the Texan courts be able to prevent the New England guys from taking-over the club?

Federal law in the US is a mess at the best of times but the idea that a Texas court could injunct a New England business (which is almost definitely incorporated in Delaware) from purchasing an English asset under EU trade laws seems far fetched to me.

That said, the petitioner picked Texas to file for a reason so who knows?

I was wondering if it was an attempt to stall things just enough so the club is not sold come the 15th which would force it into administration. The outcome would be the same but would mean Liverpool would need to eat a nine point deduction. Could they really be that bitter to try and put the boot in even further before they leave ?

They are pissed at the fact the board jumped at a buyer without any significant negotiation. The "coincidental" appearance of a higher, rival bid at the same time as the English court case should not be a surprise.

Can they stop other American reg'd companies from buying their property ? even if it's aborad ?

US law is very pro-business but, technically, it might be possible but they'd have to file the petition in a federal court so I don't see why they did it in Texas. Inter-state trade is covered by Federal law to the best of my knowledge.

If G & H succeed in what they're trying to do here and seriously jeopardise the future of Liverpool FC, they won't spend another 12 months on this earth. It would be shocking of course, but there are more than enough crazy fuckers out there that would take this to such extremes if pushed in this manner.

This is extraordinary stuff.

What is their reasoning behind their decisions though? Are they purely looking to recoup more of their investment? If so they are very short sighted, as it's clear the club's value is only going one way. Surely there must be another reason behind it, as they didn't got to where they are today by making bad business decisions.

On a side note, I read yesterday that Tom Hicks had a similar situation with Corinthians in 1999. He bought the club, promised fans a new stadium etc. Then he tried to change the club's colours (to the fans disgust) and sell the clubs best players. They went from being league champions to being relegated shortly after he left a few years later. In total he invested $500m, and within 2 years the company filed for bankruptcy.

Never knew this. It's amazing the man was allowed to buy another football club after that.

It'd be interesting to see what would happen if G&H tried to pull this shit with a club like Red Star Belgrade.
