How many people does it take to sell a Merseyside football club?

Before the economic climate changed for the worse, the American duo turned down an offer from Dubai worth almost £500 million — a deal that would have allowed each of the owners to walk away with a clear profit in the region of £125 million.

ffs

also

Ambani, 52, is said to be worth $19.5 billion (about £12.5 billion) — more than the combined worth of Sheikh Mansour and Roman Abramovich — from his investment in Reliance Industries, a petrochemicals giant, according to Forbes business magazine.

Yeah, all I can think of is when George met Castro and he was just like Steinbrenner and when George left his car at the Stadium and when Steinbrenner came to tell his parents, he and Frank got into an argument over trades.

HIcks is going to be in more trouble if he exits from the Liverpool sale with no profit at all. The sale of the Texas Rangers still leaves him somewhat vulnerable.

The creditors looking for payment on the debt he incurred with the Texas Rangers might nto be able to go after Liverpool itself, but they're going to be looking for a lot of money from him from somewhere and he was counting on proceeds from a sale of Liverpool to make a dent in that.

:dance:

if he makes nothing and that puts him in financial trouble oh man oh man

QPR are mean rich, their owners combined wealth dwarfs Man City. Abramovich is worth £8bn, Lakshmi Mittal who owns 20% of QPR is worth £18bn. Ecclestone is worth another couple of billion, Briatore another billion or so.

Loftus Road's tiny too. I really think they give no fucks about who's paying them, they've just decided to maximise the £ for the seats available.

i thought abramovich was about 15bn?
