Premier League have agreed to the Singapore bid also.

Company from Singapore ... Is it Temasek Holdings ??

it could be Profitable Group, who wanted to buy Newcastle some time back.

if it is Temasek Holdings, that's terrible news. i do hope John Henry gets us. im not in favor of Temasek at all

Yes to Profitable Group because they also organised Liverpool FC Tour of Asia 2009.

No to Temasek Holdings ....

Temasek is Singapore's sovereign fund and is like 1000x richer than profitable gp.

temasek suffers a reported 6b USD paper loss when the credit crunch hit, so u can imagine how big is the fund.

saying this, it is impossible to be temasek as it is too big a political risk in investing in a football club unless Mr Lee Kuan Yew is a LFC fan

Wonder if they will try and keep ther court date under wraps to avoid a huge gathering down there and frantic media coverage. I guess they must have the date and time already given Broughton seems so confident it will be done and dusted before next weeks out.

Possibility of the court case being on Monday - RBS want it

LIVERPOOL WANT FOUR PLAYERS - SCOUT

Liverpool scout Jakob Friis-Hansen has hinted the club are looking to bring in four new players in the January transfer window.

The Reds are currently embroiled in a takeover saga, with the boardroom split over a decision to sell and a High Court appearance needed next week to settle matters between owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks, and board members Christian Purslow, Ian Ayre and chairman Martin Broughton.

Dane Friis-Hansen is currently in his homeland after watching Lyngby's clash with FC Nordsjaelland, where he was thought to be watching young trio Kim Aabech, Lasse Rise and Emil Larsen in action.

However, Friis-Hansen denied he was interested in the players and had just visited the club to see an old friend, admitting in the process that he is looking for several first-team players to join the ranks at Anfield.

"I played with an old friend in Lyngby and have many good friends at the club, and because you have seen me up there, it does not mean that I am interested in their players. It is not what we need now," Friis-Hansen told bold.dk.

"The results are now important in Liverpool, it is first priority to get four prominent players in the next window for the first team. Players who can go into the starting line-up.

"Roy (Hodgson) will hopefully get some money to work with. I will work in Italy, Germany, France, Belgium and Holland and will this year also be going to Spain for Liverpool and it is solely for the first team.

"It is a shame for Roy to get such a start, for there is no doubt that he is a really good coach. But it has been a tough start, because you did not know and still do not know what will happen with the club financially.

"I can hopefully go out and look at players in the highest price category at a time. But we will see."

When did we get this fella ? .....Jakob Friis-Hansen a Danish Scout for Liverpool and although he denies it..... he's in Denmark searching for Danish players ......... so going with the Danish theme why doesn't Roy rate Agger

We had the French with Houllier ,the Spanish with Rafa ,and now the Danish and there was I under the impression Roy was English ...

I dont care if we lose 9 points or go down.

What I do care is that our club understands and accepts its financial position, clears out the shít, gets intelligent owners and then moves forward again in one relentless drive to greatness.

Relegation would be a logical end-game after T&T, clear out the deadwood and rebuild. Great manager, Kenny as football director, pride in the shirt, the kop on form. Unbeatable.

We have to take our medecine, no matter how distasteful.

Great post, I agree wholeheartedly. Keep up the good work Reg :bowdown
