1- they cannot find the money ( kind of important don't ya think )
2- They wanted the asian rights of the brand (bad Idea as they will make more then their money back and we would not benefit from it )

The Us film deal he has sated that he is working to attract Investors into LFC (but chooses to film is movie at St James Park -true red there if i ever seen one.) plus this is his first major film not his 30th one where he has loads of cash he is about as billy flint as most of us as it is all tied in to his business. I think alot of this bid stuff is just a bit of self promotion and trying to gain extra backing for this picture he is making.

Valid observations. Whoever the investors, Liverpool, the football club must benefit.

By the way, this Jefferies guy claimed to be born and bred in Liverpool. Anybody knows which club he supported as a kid ?

Jefferies is a die hard Liverpool fan and he was at the Norwich match on Saturday.

Accepting a bid from either Jefferies or Morgan who are both looking to buy the Moores share, is by far a better proposition than acceptance of the approaches from the Thai investors who are just looking to grab all the Asian Marketing rights, but laeve Moores in control
I think it is about time David Moores moved into a less influencial role within the club, my feeling is that he runs the club by sentiment and not on pure business decisions.
The new owners should also undertake a careful study of the proposed cost of the new stadium and whether it is necessary or even viable. £120m is lot for a new ground, that's £2000 per seat or 4 years of season ticket revenue just to pay for the ground, never mind normal day to day running costs and new player transfer fees. :blues:
