Has he got money this fella and his consortium? Enough to take us forward??

Chinese businessman Kenneth Huang has revealed he is in talks to buy Liverpool and wants manager Rafa Benitez to remain at Anfield.

Huang is at the head of a consortium interested in ending the ownership deadlock at Anfield and has claimed he has been granted access to the club's accounts by Tom Hicks and George Gillett.
And the former Wall Street broker, who has a huge portfolio of investment interests in Hong Kong and the United States, expects a deal to be in place within the next two months.

Huang, who is working alongside business partner Adrian Cheng on the deal, insists Benitez is at the heart of his £500million master plan and has already contacted the Spaniard to give him assurances about the future in a bid to keep him out of the clutches of Italian giants Juventus.
Crucial stage

"Negotiations have taken place over the last few months and we are at a crucial stage," he said in the Sunday Mirror.

"I really hope it turns out to be a successful bid. Right now my audit team is examining the books and my legal team is in close contact with theirs.

"We have a fierce competitor in the Middle East, but it could be finalised in June."

He added: "I was first approached (to buy Liverpool) in 2008 when I was in Singapore attending a Formula One Grand Prix, but the asking price was 1billion US dollars.

"It was totally unreasonable so I turned it down. The asking price has dropped significantly and we are talking again.

"I want Liverpool to win the Champions League and Premier League and I think Benitez is a very good coach."

He wants to keep Rafa so not sure if I want him buy the club *cries*
 
Saw this on SSN and began doing some research on the guy.
Seems to be well connected and was looking at buying a stake in the Basketball franchise, Cleveland Cavaliers last year. Don't know how that turned out though.

Google Jianhua 'Kenny' Huang and see for yourselves.

The fact that he wants Rafa to still be here worries the shit out of me as well...
 
Fuck that.....the fact that he wants Benitez to stay proves he doesn't know jackwad about our team this year.

Hey Kenneth, we aint in the CL next year either.



Anyways, I will accept any new owner as long as they bring a chunky war chest.... and Jose with them.

I'll except any owner who starts building the fucking stadium already. that's the long term future of the club. we'll figure out how to cross the 'how do we fill it?' bridge when we come to it because we may well be a midtable outfit by the time its completed.
 
Who's ashamed?


I would take Bernie Madoff as long as he pumped in his (stolen / missing / lost) billions.

slow news day.
 
I want Benitez to go but I would sooner have new owners giving him money than the current owners giving a new manager less money.

I don't rate Benitez but if he gets given unlimited funds and wins the league then great. If he gets given unlimited funds and still fucks up the chances are the new owners would sack him anyway and be able to bring in Mourinho. So win-win really.

Unlimited funds for Benitez? No PL .....then the sack?

How about decent funds for Jose - with a very realistic chance of winning the League first go?
 
What Richey said. As angry as I am at Benitez this year, I could tolerate him for another year if he was given a sizeable budget which he put to good use.
 
I think his record is so inconsistent that it's foolish to guess either way. I'll always maintain that replacing our owners has to be the priority over replacing our manager.
 
I think those quotes are old though.
From what I've read on other forums, there's an expected bid from someone based in the UAE.

Whenever people like this Huang guy are so vocal, it usually means fuck all is going to happen. Publicity stunt probably

If you google Kenneth Huang, you'll find a link to Facebook 🙂 Maybe we can all make him our friend.
 
The ideal scenario would be a new owner with loads of money and Mourinho as manager but if we can get the former I wouldn't reject it just because Benitez might be staying on. He might do ok with lots of cash and if he doesn't at least there'd be no more excuses
 
i don't want a crazy fucker who just throws money around without a care in the world..

in a perfect world id love to have...

a new owner who gets the new stadium built quickly..

To stay in the background without too much bullshit in the papers..

to consistently put 40 million into the transfer kitty each season...

I think we should certainly be wary of any prospective owner who thinks Benitez is a 'keeper, although he could hardly be any worse than Itandje.
 
Huang plays down Reds talk
Businessman denies reported comments over Anfield outfit
Last updated: 26th April 2010

Kenneth Huang has denied speaking to a newspaper about a proposed takeover of Liverpool.

A report in the Sunday Mirror suggested Huang, described as a former Wall Street stockbroker, was leading a consortium who were in advanced negotiations to buy the Merseysiders for £500million.

Co-owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett officially put the club up for sale just over a week ago, having admitted someone else needed to take it to the next level.

However, a statement released on behalf of Huang has distanced the China-based businessman from the claims.

"Mr Huang would like to clarify that he did not speak with the newspaper and did not make the statements attributed to him," said the statement.

"Mr Huang would not make any comment in relation to Liverpool FC."
