MODS please leave open for atleast a few days it will only get lost in the takeover topic.

Certain people have been breaking their backs and doing everything possible to see the club rid of the two cancers we can do our bit also to save our club, its YOUR CLUB, no matter where you are in the world.

Please take a few minutes out of your time to write a personal letter to Stephen Hester at the RBS who has quite frankly had enough of Messers Gillett & Hicks turn up the pressure push them further and see that your club returns back to normal within the next few weeks.

Do not be nasty do not use foul language just be honest and explain that our club needs a new owner asap and the right owner. all you need is a piece of paper, a stamp and envelope get writting folks your club needs you.

VCM will post more on this presently, but there are movements - and the upshot is that EVERYONE has to get on Fat Scouser's various RBS campaigns, and sign the RBS petition. It's pitiful that less than 1,000 have been @rsed so far.

As will be all over the news tomorrow, a takeover headed by Kenneth Huang (though not solely) and backed by a sovereign fund that will dwarf anything available to any other club in world football is in negotiations with RBS to buy Liverpool F.C. It sounds laughable in light of the three years we've been through, but LFC could soon be the richest club on the planet - if RBS does the right thing.

The brief "highlights" are that Huang himself flew out to speak to Torres and convince him that good times are around the corner. His group have been dealing directly with RBS - so, potentially, there might be the added joy of zero profit for G&H. And he has thus far bodyswerved the Liverpool board, meaning Broughton and Purlsow have less opportunity to derail the bid.

Enter George Gillett. His inoccuous request for a Little Guy's Bike at the training camp was an act of Machievellian brilliance. He wanted the world (i.e RBS) to know that he was back in Europe on LFC business, and he knew his jokey inquiry would be seized upon and written up immediately. He had wind of the Huang takeover and knew he had to stall RBS at all costs. With Liverpool playing Al Hilal, his ruse was to intimate that he was fielding a rival, far richer bid from the Saudis - which RBS would be legally obliged to examine, thus slowing down the Huang deal (which was set to complete today, leaving a full month of the transfer window left for business). We should, for once, praise the heavens for the deluge that halted the Al Hilal game from going ahead. If Gillett had had his way, he'd have been sandwiched between a sheikh and a prince and the images would have gone around the world and straight onto Steven Hester's desk. Even without the circumstancial evidence, Gillett continued to imply he was talking to the Arabs. And he was - just that it was a different and far less impressive Middle eastern country beginning with S....Syria. And the 'bid' was not worth the paper it was written on.

I'll post more later but let's just say for now that RBS are still tempted to believe that Gillett is about to reveal a rival bid that the bank is duty bound to examine. Gillett hopes that that will frustrate Huang into making himself and Hicks an offer they can't refuse - knowing that he wants this takeover to happen quickly, so the club can take advantage of the transfer market. What he also knows - and here's where we come into it, comrades - is that as of 30th July, RBS has had the constituational right to call in the loan and sell it on to whichever bid makes the most sense for the bank and Liverpool F.C. If ever there was a time to re-visit Fat Scouser's magnificent campaigning letter-writing pages, it's now. And it's also time for SOS to add the might of our 7,000+ members to the campaign.

Get writing to RBS. FLOOD Hester's desk with letters and emails reminding him of his duty to do this deal for Liverpool. Every last one of us has a role to play here so shoulders together for one last heave...NOW!!

I´ve already written to that gentleman and had received a written response by mail all the way down here in Brazil.

I´m impressed with the way RBS are handling this unfortunate situation.
