      Lets use RBS to buy Liverpool?
      Jun 09, 2010 06:28:33 pm
      Ok so I have a plan, it's only in its early stages and is a very new idea, but a tongue in cheek suggestion in another thread got me thinking..

      I keep hearing about share Liverpool and S.O.S and they seem like good ideas, in fact I'd be more than happy to pledge £500 of my heard earned money on my club. The problem is can everybody afford it? that got me thinking, why are we in this mess? well its that stupid money grabbing bank RBS allowing to red neck pricks to loan/buy our club and why aren't they being forced to sell? because if you read any banking corporations business plan.. the sole idea is to sustain debt in lending more and more money, the money isn't real, banks create money out of thin air in order to keep the wheels of debt rolling, its a never ending spiral..

      so the solution?

      Fire with fire..

      If you have a steady income, RBS and other money grabbing f**k bag banks, will give you an overdraft.. they want to they need to try and get you in debt. What they dont tell you is after six years if its an unsecured debt it vanishes

      So where am I going with this?

      Well the idea is to get one million Liverpool fans to open an account with RBS, get an overdraft of £500, withdraw the money and buy the club.. its totally legal, lets stick it to the man!!! POWER TO THE PEOPLE

      I think its a full proof plan, how will they know we are Liverpool fans, hi I'd like to open an account, do you support Liverpool, no.. ;) ok here is your account, would you like an overdraft? yeah please, how much.. erm 500 sheets or something  :lmao:

      anyway just a pipe dream plan, but I love our club and sometimes clutching at straws is the only thing, we have left..

      just thought I'd share it with everyone  ;D

      discuss..

      What you are doing is illegal and therefore covered under the "proceeds of crime act" which allows the bank to recover assets, which in this case is the club.

      banks cant recover assets for a £500 overdraft, get real mate!!! i know people with bank debts all over the place and have never had anything seized, the bank after 5 years will make you an offer of say £250 to clear the debt

      Ingenius.

      Let's face it - RBS have given £10 for every man, woman and child in this whole country to Hicks and Gillett to prop up their ridiculous ownership of Liverpool Football Club.

      Bearing in mind RBS is about 98% owned by the UK taxpayer I'm astonished that even the Conservative party wouldn't try and lean on them a little bit.  I'm sure they could do with a few votes on Merseyside for a kick off.

      No, they intend to pay back the money (albeit using money that should have been invested in the squad) which is why they are allowed to continue doing what they're doing, the fact the bank is making over £40m a year bides in their favour + a further £10m or so each time they attempt to refinance.  I agree 100% they don't deserve the honour of owning our club, however there would need to be intention of paying back the loans otherwise it gets classed as a criminal offence (assuming UK law is the same as Australian law).  Anyway, £500m wouldn't be enough to purchase the club, would need at least double that to somewhat entertain the idea and triple that to realistically entertain the idea.  There would be ways around it but truthfully not worth the hassle or effort.  Ask people to donate and start gaining interest on people's investments early and hope it can be a reality one day.

      banks give money away left right and centre.. now its up to us whether we exploit it or not?

      I for one have never bothered paying back loans to banks and I still have good credit, because of the six year rule... maybe you guys pay up because you fear bailiffs at the door, but in reality that never happens unless its a substantial loan, truth is it costs too much money for them to chase debts..

      Christ, this is a F***ing awesome idea sir. And it is totally possible if organised properly. Fans from all countries would have to participate. I'm sure the bank would get wind if one million people opened an account with RBS just in the UK!

I need to know what is happening!! and I'm sure most of you are the same.

      this is only an idea but if we can buy the club.. we can then find our own investor to buy a stake Arabs?? why not try and beat the banks? what have we got to lose.. lets beat the system!

      Can I, in Norway currently, get involved in this?

      yes my friend, just get an overdraft of £500 or whatever you can afford.. the idea is to borrow the money to buy our club from the banks who punish us with debt! also post the facebook link to any reds you know mate, get everyone involved.. with July 4th approaching it would be good if we were getting close at that stage. :D

      Do we sit back and watch as they destroy what we love.
      Do we stand idly by and hope for someone else to solve our problems.
      No
      It's time we let people know that we are not prepared to let our club slip away silently.
      We are not prepared to be fed more lies by the impostors on the throne.
      Groups like S.O.S need our support.
      We need to stand now as one and save our club.


      Much love to you all
