Hicks will drag this on and on he done it with the Texas rangers that take over took nearly a year with all sorts of court cases, time wasting tactics to get more money.

[metalhead]

4.27pm: RBS QC: "RBS is a lender that deserves to be repaid £200m on Friday. It is wrong of Hicks and Gillett to try and delay that process."

4.25pm: QC for RBS says bank has been willing to wave "tens of millions of pounds in fees" to see a sale go through. Also dismisses G&H claim that there is no actual 15 October deadline with the Bank as part of their "game".

it's not that bad.

RBS has said on the record that they will not do anything until this court case has been resolved. That means we will not go into administration and they will not ask for their money back.

i would rather see RBS take over the club and then sell it to NESV. fuk the 9 points deduction. its just a mere setback for a better future.

the deal with Nesv is OFF if we go into admin.

This is the only we can

a) screw over our current owners

b) get new owners who have been vetted properly by the Premier league AND our current board.

4.30pm: While we wait for the next update from court, what does it mean if the court doesn't make its decision today, or indeed, this week (as seems distinctly possible given Mr Justice Floyd's recent comment)? Reuters says this:

If the Oct. 15 deadline for a refinancing of Liverpool's debt is missed, lawyers believe RBS could take control of the club and conduct the sale itself.
That could result in the holding company of the five-times European champions briefly being put into administration, which would result in the points deduction under Premier League rules

no mate, they have said they will buy it direct from RBS.

[jacdaniel]

Sounds like Hicks is just trying to hold out for more money? 
Thats basically what all this boils down to. 

On Friday, could RBS not put us in Administration and tell sell us to NESV?
Of course we'd get the deduction but who cares...

After all the twists coming out of this court case, I hope they make a motion picture film from this with Edward Woodward as George Gillett, The Judge as Anthony Hopkins, Dirk Benedict as Christian Purslow, QC as Christopher Lee, and Julia Roberts as the woman he loved.

Theyd have to dig edward up to do it

Do you mean George Gillett would played by a stiff
