Tom Hicks, the man I hate more than some of my former bosses,
\nhas been in Court in London this week attempting to
\noverturn the International injunction against him and George Gillette pursuing damages against NESV, Martin Broughton, RBS Holdings and LFC.
\nThe clearly deluded Texan believes that he was swindled out of Liverpool Football club by the \u00a3300 sale to John W Henry of Fenway Sports.
\nIf, and its a big if, Hicks wins his case then he will sue Liverpool FC for $1 billion dollars, citing the club for underselling the asset, his own loss of \u00a3140 investment in the club and his belief that Liverpool FC were worth much ,much more than the \u00a3300 million hey were sold for back in those heady days of Summer.
\nThe very idea of the mercenary Hicks winning this landmark case makes me shudder.
\nBut the likelihood of it being thrown out of Court today makes me smile as the worst owners in the history will be finally laid to rest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
