The Keith Harris Connection
Comments (15)
Just been reading on the BBC Football site that Mike Ashley has "appointed London-based investment bank Seymour Pierce to handle the sale of the club. The chairman of Seymour Pierce is Keith Harris, who was involved in selling Chelsea to Roman Abramovich in 2003. He also advised in the takeovers of Aston Villa by Randy Lerner and Manchester City by Thaksin Shinawatra."
I also remember last week that whilst trawling through the minutes of the EGM, Bill Kenwright mentioned something about some guy called 'Keith' who was looking for a buyer for him. Was he talking about this guy?
If it is, then why was there absolutely NO mention of Mr Harris being instructed by BK to find a buyer in ANY media outlet? I know Everton FC aren't exactly top of the media radar at the moment but surely some news of this importance would have surficed in the Nationals at some point? I don't live in Liverpool so it may have been 'big news' in the Post or Echo a while ago perhaps?

Plus Cuddles the Monkey. Although I hear that Cuddles gives Phil Neville competition in midfield :0)
But according to Portsmouth this has nothing to do with them as it his his son, Sacha, who is the owner. The off-shore company which actually owns the club is, of course, controlled by him, not his father. Nobody in the PL or probably anywhere else in the UK has access to their records.
I hope I don’t have to defend myself about all this being ’nothing to do with us’. EFC has a For Sale notice nailed on it and although I can have absolutely no influence over who the new owner might eventually be, I know what I don’t want.
The other day Wenger was saying that he couldn’t understand what M City’s new owners were up to because (as I remember) it wasn’t to make money, and they weren’t football fans. There must be something else going on then mustn’t there Arsene.
If the Euro lottery comes up on Friday I’ll be looking to invest, but only in another season ticket.
If Bill dropped me into his verbiage, I’d kick his lovey until he couldn’t sit down.
Sorry to dissapoint - like one of Mikky’s corners really.
Honestly, you accidentally shove your hand up a green ducks? arse once, and it stays with you forever.
Still, he would be a bit more commanding in the box than Howard at the mo? who starts shouting ?Tims ball? as "Tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt twatting hell it?s gone in"
Time to give Carlo a run out tomorrow methinks. Hope he?s not a stammerer.
But in a good way :0) Once you’ve been there,every other perversion is just dull......
i bet this one is true.
How can this be true when Bill Kenwright is working 24/7 to find investors? Even God took a rest on the 7th day :0)
i mean fairs fair,he’s been supporting liverpool for years.
Great thread though,cheered me up no end after reading that the incompetent twat {ENTER NAME HERE]Riley is refereeing the derby on Saturday.
Carlo Nash is cup tied for the Blackburn game. In general though I think it’s a bad idea to start fucking round playing musical goalie gloves at this point in the season. Once the defence start getting their act together and we have a couple of clean sheets, then Howard will be back on it (Howards Way?)
