Street Novelist Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Liverpool Owner Tom Hicks Vows To Fight NESV Takeover In Court Liverpool owner Tom Hicks has vowed to fight the New England Sports Ventures takeover in court after he claimed the board had no permission to make the sale. The proposed sale will go to the High Court next week after Hicks claimed commercial director Ian Ayre and managing director Christian Purslow had been removed before they struck the deal without his permission. In their place, he tried to install son Mack and assistant Lori Kay McCutcheon to block the offer. But, chairman Martin Broughton insisted only he had the authority from the Royal Bank of Scotland (Liverpool's creditors) to approve changes. Quote Link to comment

bbeerma2 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 So you all know, the stadiums here in Poland are coming along nicely. I can nearly see the national stadium from my work and it will easily be completed on time. They have renovated the Legia (professional) stadium here in Warsaw, so I'm sure it will suffice as a stadium if they don't finish one of the other 3. I've heard there are issues with Krakow but I don't think it will deter them from finishing. I'm optimistic the Euro Cup will be held in Poland/Ukraine in 2012 based on the progress.

Street Novelist Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Karim Benzema To Tottenham? According to Goal.com, Tottenham have made Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema a target for the winter transfer window in January. “Harry didn’t try to sign Benzema this summer because he thought he had no chance but if there is any chance of signing him in January the club will do everything it can,” a Spurs insider told Goal.com. “He played with Van der Vaart at Real Madrid and maybe that could convince him that Tottenham is the best place for him to kick-start his career.” Tottenham's four strikers have scored just 1 goal in 7 league games. Benzema scored 9 goals in 32 appearances last season and has been restricted to mostly substitute roles this season under Mourinho. Quote Link to comment

Street Novelist Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 Pedro Out 3 Weeks With Torn Left Hamstring Barcelona striker Pedro Rodriguez will be out of action for 3 weeks after sustaining a torn left hamstring during the 1-1 draw versus Mallorca on Sunday evening. Pedro appeared to injure himself while attempting to turn on the Camp Nou turf, and immediately signaled to the bench that he was unable to continue. Medical examinations have confirmed there is a tear in his left hamstring muscle, and the recovery time is set at a minimum of 3 weeks in order to allow the injury to completely heal. The estimated 3 week lay-off would mean Pedro will miss Spain's Euro 2012 qualifiers against Lithuania and Scotland, and, depending on how his recovery goes, Barca's league games against Valencia and Real Zaragoza as well as their Champions League clash with FC Copenhagen.

The judge ordered a board meeting tonight at 20:00 during which the future of Liverpool will be decided.

They [Hicks & Gillett] do have the right to be present at board meetings where the state of the club is discussed." Quote Link to comment
