THE THAI Prime Minister could switch his allegiance to Everton if his plan to invest millions of pounds in Liverpool FC falls through, it emerged last night.

Everton are on a shortlist of three Premiership clubs to which the Thais are looking to turn their attentions if a deal cannot be concluded with Liverpool.

The Thai chief negotiator Pongsak Ruktapongpisal yesterday arrived in the city and will this week meet Liverpool FC officials in an attempt to speed up the country's floundering plan to buy 30% of the club.

But the Daily Post understands Mr Pongsak will also use the opportunity to visit Goodison Park.

An Everton spokesman last night declined to comment but sources close to the club and in the Thailand camp confirmed that Everton, along with Manchester City and Fulham, are to talk to the Thai negotiator.

How about it, the bluenoses taking the money instead of us, they need all the help they cna get at the moment. The thai deal still looks attractive to me, but there is the whole human rights argument etc. What do you all think?

I'm not a big fan of the whole Thai proposal, it's based purely on money & politics and has absolutely f*ck all to do with the footballing interests of the club. Having said that I'd be gutted to see the blueshite suddenly get £60m to spend. Or rather £59m to clear their overdraft and £1m to spend. In fact a one-third stake in Everton would cost more like £30 not £30,000,000. :laugh:

Seriously it's a catch 22, this Thai bid. I don't want it but I don't want us to not get £60m

I am not in favour of the present Thai investment option and if they choose to invest in Goodision Park, then good luck to them. Let me just say that Everton are not well known in the Far East and you'd struggle to find a million Thai's who either know Goodision Park and what it represents or be willing to invest in a lottery to find their governments schemes.

Take your Thai money and shove it up your a-hole!

i know, we have shown minor interst in Alan smith and Joe cole, and all of a sudden a swoop for Paul Dickov an average player for a relegated side..........
