Don't celebrate yet. hem two c...s will have one last dart at it I'm sure of it. As for that Lord Grabbo bloke, he probably earns about a million quid a year but is a rarity in that he's worth every penny. Fair play to the man.

On that Guardian link it says this and it's spot on:

"So yesterday the English guys won in the English court; then the Americans won in the American court and blocked the English judge's decision (essentially). Then today the English guys won again in the English court and blocked the blocking of the English judge's decision. And now the Americans are fighting in the American court to block the blocking of the blocking of the English judge's decision. Can we guess who'll win that? How is this ever going to end?"

In Texas Law

RULE 12. ATTORNEY TO SHOW AUTHORITY

A party in a suit or proceeding pending in a court of this state may, by sworn written motion stating
that he believes the suit or proceeding is being prosecuted or defended without authority, cause the
attorney to be cited to appear before the court and show his authority to act. The notice of the motion
shall be served upon the challenged attorney at least ten days before the hearing on the motion. At
the hearing on the motion, the burden of proof shall be upon the challenged attorney to show
sufficient authority to prosecute or defend the suit on behalf of the other party. Upon his failure to
show such authority, the court shall refuse to permit the attorney to appear in the cause, and shall
strike the pleadings if no person who is authorized to prosecute or defend appears. The motion may
be heard and determined at any time before the parties have announced ready for trial, but the trial
shall not be unnecessarily continued or delayed for the hearing.

Here you go hon:

'The Texan Court injunction is binding on the board et al in the UK, until the injunction there is lifted by the Texan Court. The anti-suit injunction is not an order against the Texan Court itself. Instead, it is effectively an order compelling H&G to apply to the Texan Court to lift the injunction, on the basis that the Texan Court has no jurisdiction to determine this case. H&G therefore face a choice: either they lift the injunction or be in contempt of the English Court anti-suit injunction, the punishment for which can include imprisonment. H&G would most likely not want to return to the UK with contempt proceedings hanging over their heads.'

So in laymans terms then, either H+G drop their texan injunction and the club's sale goes through to NESV. Or they keep their Texan injunction and face legal proceedings in the UK (maybe jail).. Guess they won't be setting foot in the UK again.

Why? The new owners are also American citizens so there's no point for cynicism.

You can't think that the US legal system holds Hicks in higher regard than John Henry. NESV will have lawyers prepared in Texas and worse case scenario it gets escalated to the supreme court which will have direct access to our own High court of justice as reference.

We need some scouse fire, some Jimmy Cases, Sammy Lees, Thommos, Sounesses and Bruce Grobos... we need passion not these soft shítes.

For a start they did not disclose the full facts to the Texan court, infact they ommitted to tell them that they lost the very same argument in the highest Court in the UK earlier that day so I doubt they enjoy being given the run around by these two idiots. I am sure they will be telling them that as we speak. If they dont withdraw the injunction then they will be in contempt of Court here, and not just any court either, and face the consequences. My guess is they will withdraw it tonight as they wont take it that far. If the sale does not complete in next 24 hrs then RBS will not put us into admin and endanger the deal with NESV who are now their only hope of getting their money back given Lim has done one and G & H dont have a brain cell between them to raise any kind of funds. The deal will complete and we wont lose 9pts.
