Interim Plan

Dated 18th June 20101  in Podgorica, Montenegro

Background

A unique event is unfolding ...............
 

1. One of the most succesful sports clubs in the World , who UEFA stated that, until last year were  most succesful of the previous five years , with the most succesful record of the original league of the World most popular game is up for sale.
2. Within this is A global brand ;  (tickets, shirts, souvenirs, club membership & related products & services) worth in excess of 1 billion Euros - Worldwide is available.
3. The club has arguably the most famous Supporters in the World, and its followers own the most famous hymn ("You'll NEVER walk Alone!" ) sung in any sports stadium anywhere.
4. Today The Union ("Spirit of Shankly") of said supporters have made a public announcement that they have agreed with the company (ShareLiverpoolFc) to buy the Liverpool Football Club from its UNWANTED owners.
5. "SoS" have been regularly demonstrating against Gillet & Hicks, 2 USA citizens who have been publicly criticised for methods involved in the leveraged buy out of LFC from the former family owners of the Club. They have made public statements that they are ready to go. The minister for the Liverpool constutuency has publicly condemned G & H and they are being "investigated" - The forced departure of R.Benitez causing anger amongst core supporters.
6. The previous shirt sponsor "carlsberg" has completed its contract with Lfc - it is well known that Lfc have probably the largest "travelling" support of any sports club in the World (for example around 50,000 went to Istanbul in 2005 and Athens in 2007 and most away games bring away supporters of between 5-10,000. ALL Home games are sold out, with hunderds of pubs & sports bars around Liverpool FULL on match days with beer-drinking "REDS" fans.

Opportunity

- Chris SMITH ("CS")  is a life-long LIVERPOOL supporter since the 1960's and all through the 25 years of domestic domination by the clubs teams which also won FOUR European Champions CLUB winners trophies between 1977-1984.
- Despite the worst season in over 10 years Lfc are considered the 2nd most popular football club in the World, by global "facebook" users.
- The new/current shirt sponsors are "UK Bankers" - not the most popular people amongst supporters!
- N. supplies a "dark beer" we identify as RED, like Kilkenny or Murphy's RED ...but those have very complicated distribution contracts europe and Worldwide - whereas if N  supplied "own label" RED beer (with OUR Liverbird logo & "RED beer for All REDS") we would have a FRESH and identified IMPACT on our supporters Worldwide
- "REDS" mostly use pubs as "meeting points" not only for "away travellers" all over Europe but for locations for our local (official or unofficial) supporters & fan clubs

Plan (brief outline of core strategy)

a) to acquire the club in the name of the global Supporters by end of August (start of the new season) or at least to be "in the process" of removal of the previous owners & legal completion by the "ReDS"..

- each supporter or fan opens a savings account and deposits the money that he would normally spend on "Lfc" products etc , and if he/she is a ticket holder offers at least 2 match tickets to visitng fans who dont usualy gets seats ; and again places said monies in the bank

- each regional supporters club (official OR "unofficial) co-ordinates each region of the Globe

- the regional clubs then vote on selecting a global "neutral" bank (with no existing ties to LFc) which has branches in each region to co-ordinbate said sum

the "bridging bank" (if needed) supports our bid for the club

on success; the bank is repaid by the snowball effect of global fan base (to 1 million members) joining the new "Kop Unlimited Liverpool Football club" (working title)
-SoS/ShareLfc have no objections in co-operation to achieve these aims.
- ex players, players & LFDC "celebrity fans"  join as supporter/shareholders
(Michael Schumacher; Elvis Costello ;  Chris de Burgh, ex-pm Blair family etc)
- a new range of products & services promoting the LIVERPOOL brand will replace all existing sponsors over time (bringing several billions of euros into the organisation within 5 years)
- providing a new stadium and "protection" of Anfield road stadium as a working muserm/heritage site , integrated with the "football quarter"..
- global marketing of the "Liverpool lifestyle" brand
- at an EGM the existing management (inc Rafa/Kenny) are offered the chance to complete their contracts, or be replaced by effective & efficient "Lfc Loving entrepreneurs"

 I could lead or at least "provoke" a FASTER buy -out by "global REDS" ...if there is any significant delay I will do so In association with "other investors" ........but be sure of 3 points;

- I have the experience contacts and capability  I will do so with the absolute intent to ensure that this club eventually belongs to its supporters and fans (Worldwide), and is progressive.

-  MY only benefit is to protect the only thing that has ever been constant,in my love, in my life.as WE (the true "REDS" ) will never be "happy" until we own Lfc, no other owners will care for or deserve it..

- IF EVER THERE WAS A FOOTBALL CLUB ON THIS PLANET THAT SHOULD BE IN THE HANDS OF ITS SUPPORTERS IT IS OURS! being a Liverpool RED is a lifestyle, society , a global family , this love is not to be continually violated by monetary mercenaries!


 

b) As typical of the Joint Venture ("JV") with <N>

- <N>. Supply "REd own label beer" at its best "ex factory" price.
- a significant promotion begins at the same time as the "buy out" (summer 2010)
- a Low cost location will be managed close to N. to ensure maximum effect economy & profit
- A promotional delivery of Beer, t-shirts are supplied to 200 KEY Supporter location around Europe & LP
- a small sum from every sale goes into the "Supporters fund" ( & HJC etc)
- Logistics are organised by a "JV" company managed by "CS" - who will become "resident".
- 2 employees & a combi-vehicle are provided by <N>.
- A dedicated website - with "pay-pal" and other modern faciltiies will feature this "launch"

http://mypod-net.org/products.html

- " Balkan REDS" promotions events, football tournaments are already planned for August & September
 
 


 
 

More details of Plans, information & methods shall be provided following evidence of INTENT by <N> required within this month (June 2010).

SLFC Proposal for fans investment in Liverpool FC
 

Current situation

The concept of fan ownership of professional football clubs is widely supported by politicians, football governing bodies and supporter organisations. A range of fan owned football club models work well on the continent including those of some of the largest and most successful clubs in Europe. However, to date, we have not seen this approach at the top end of English football. Traditionally English clubs have been owned by local relatively wealthy businessmen who have supported their club and have taken a fairly benevolent attitude financially towards the club. This model no longer works at the very top of the game due to the considerable amount of money now involved in football; effectively local ownership has been priced out of the highest levels of the game. Unfortunately some new investors that have been tempted to buy into English football have over borrowed to do so. Liverpool Football Club (LFC) is a prime example of this. As a result of the new owners being under capitalised they have not been able to deliver what the club needs and what they originally undertook to do.
 

We understand that LFC currently has to support some £350 million of short term bank debt owed between itself and its holding company. The cost of servicing this debt is expensive due to high level of gearing and the relative lack of security from hard tangible assets within the LFC group. The club needs to significantly reduce this borrowing by injecting new equity capital and restructuring the majority of any remaining debt into long term liabilities. Doing this would reduce costs, bring stability and enable the Club to move forward and to start to raise the necessary finance for the new stadium project.

Liverpool is one of the most widely and passionately followed football clubs in the world. We firmly believe that, if properly approached, this fan base can supply the equity/low cost funding that the Club needs. The financial involvement of the fans would be good for the Club and a viable option for the current owners and their bankers.

 The Proposal

The proposals in this paper set out just one way the Club might look to restructure were it to seek investment from its fans. It is not suggested that this is the only way it could be done or even that it is the best way. But it is intended to demonstrate that the involvement of a fan owned structure in the overall ownership of LFC is a viable option for the Club, its bankers and current owners. This paper does not include any analysis of the commercial activities of the Club and the opportunities that may exist to improve these. It focuses solely on a possible new group structure and re financing of the existing debt of some £350 million and its ongoing servicing and repayment based on the current financial performance of LFC.
 

This paper also only intends to set out the broad principles behind a possible structure fans might use to participate in the ownership of the Club. Its aim is to help start a discussion with the Club’s owners and bankers about the principle of fan ownership and a possible structure this could be achieved through. It is not intended as a detailed proposal. Further advice would have to be taken to achieve the detail needed to support a transaction after any discussions commenced.
 The main proposals at present are:

1)      The existing £350 million of short term bank debt would be replaced by a mix of new equity and long dated 2% Loan Stock totalling £250 million from its new equity shareholders; with £100million left in by its bankers in the form of long dated convertible loan stock.
 

2)      ShareLiverpoolFC (“SLFC”) would seek to raise £150 million of this through a mix of equity and long dated subordinated 2% loan stock (the "SLFC Loan Stock") from the Club’s fan base. The interest payable on the SLFC Loan Stock would be met from SLFC’s investment in the Club.
 

3)      £100 million would be invested by one or more third party commercial investors (the “Commerical Investors”). A shareholders agreement between SLFC and the Commercial Investors would be entered into covering such things as high level management strategy and a possible medium to longer term exit plan for the investor.
 

4)      The £250 million of new equity/long term funding would be used to fund a new company (“New Holding Company”) to acquire the shares in LFC from Kop Football Limited, who will use the £250 million to discharge £250 million of the current £350 million of bank debt.
 

5)      The banks would be asked to exchange the balance of their £100m of debt for £100 million of new convertible Loan Stock in LFC. This would be repaid / bought by SLFC at pre-agreed prices over approximately 20 years and upon acquisition converted into new shares in LFC.
 

6)      Without heavy interest costs and debt repayment programmes LFC would operate more profitably at current performance levels.
 

7)      Management of LFC would be by appropriately experienced and qualified individuals selected as being the best people available employed on appropriate contracts. There would also be a small number of non executive directors appointed by the shareholders whose responsibilities would be to ensure corporate governance standards and policies meet best current practise. They would also be there to ensure that the Club followed the broad principles and objectives set by its shareholders.

Current Financial Position of LFC

Much comment has been made recently about the financial position of LFC. However, the real issue is not the financial position of LFC but that of its holding company and the current owners.
 

LFC’s holding company, Kop Football Limited’s balance sheet at July 2008 can be simply summarised as follows:-
 Kop Football Limited Assets

Cost of LFC shares                                         £183 million

Loan to LFC                                                     £  80 million
____________________________________________

Total investment in LFC                                  £263 million

Losses to date            (interest)                    £  37 million
____________________________________________
                                                                            £300 million

Financed by:

Bank Loan                                                       £240 million

Shareholders’ loan (probably borrowed)      60 million
____________________________________________
Total Debt                                                       £300 million
 

 Shareholder equity                                      Nil

Kop Football Limited has no other asset than LFC. Without the owners injecting personal funds the company has no way of paying back its debt other than by selling its investment in LFC or funding the existing debt cost / repayment from cash flows taken by way of dividend or interest from LFC. LFC can not currently support this level of debt.
 

At the date of the last audited accounts (July 2008) LFC itself owed the £80 million, as shown above, to the holding company (this has since risen to over £100m) and £22 million to the bank, so bank debt in the club alone itself is at a reasonable level.

 Liverpool Football Club Profit and Loss account

The accounts show steady growth in the Club’s revenues which totalled £159 million last year. Media income grew strongly last year to a total of £68.4 million, largely as the result of a new Premiership TV deal. Matchday income at £39 million was fairly static year on year and is likely to stay that way until a new larger stadium is built, or the existing one enlarged. Commercial income is growing after a period of poor underperformance. We believe there is considerable room for more growth in this area if managed properly. The Club’s costs are dominated by player wages and amortisation of player purchase costs. These are largely dictated by the market and are in line, in percentage terms with other similar clubs. Gross interest costs (including that capitalised) is over £10 million and presumably growing, most of this appears to be payable to the holding company.
 
 

The Club has made a profit on player sales in each of the last four years. Last year it made a profit of £21.6 million mainly from the sale of Sissoko, Carson, Risse, Guthrie and Crouch. Since the last year end the club has sold Finnan and Keane for a total of £12.8 million a figure that may rise further dependant on various conditions being met. However, subject to no sale of major players during this summer’s transfer window, profit on the sale of players in this current year may be down on last year.
 

See summary below of the Club’s abridged audited Profit and Loss account for the last three years.
 
 

Balance Sheet

The Club’s last accounts showed some £28 million of shareholder equity, down from £40 million two years ago. Major changes in the year include an investment of £21 million in fixed assets, mostly capitalised costs re the new stadium project, a net increase of nearly £30 million in players, further investment of some £10 million in LFC TV and a reduction in total bank borrowings. This has all been financed by an increase in debt due to the holding company which has in turn increased its borrowings.

Balance Sheet
 

  ShareLiverpoolFC membership

These proposals are based on the assumption that, with the support of Spirit of Shankly, SLFC could raise between 20,000 and 25,000 members.   SLFC seeks to make membership as open as possible to all fans. As the “fan ownership vehicle” it wants to be seen as representing as wide a fan base as possible.
 

On its own SLFC currently has getting on for 10,000 registrants. Originally over twice this number expressed interest via its website. However, as no specific proposal has been put to fans to date, many who originally showed interest in the concept have not registered their financial support and probably won’t until they see a specific plan. Spirit of Shankly has some 2,500 members. It is believed that there is very little overlapping of membership between the two groups.
 

It is not thought unrealistic to project that membership of SLFC would be at least 20,000 if a specific proposal was agreed with the banks and the current owners, as fans would then think it realistic that a transaction might happen.
 

A survey of the SLFC registrants carried out earlier this year showed:
 

    * 55% considered that it was essential that any fan ownership company’s constitution only allowed one vote per member, so all members had equal voting rights.
    * 80% supported the concept of the fans entering into a joint venture with a commercial partner to buy the club if this made the completion of a transaction more likely.
    * 60% were prepared to subscribe the suggested £5,000; 40% were prepared to subscribe more.
    * The geographic spread of ShareLiverpool fans was:

                                    21% were from Merseyside / the Northwest

                                    35% were from elsewhere in the UK

                                    10% were from Ireland

                                    12% were from Scandinavia

                                    22% were from elsewhere
 

The Spirit of Shankly membership is thought to be predominately from Merseyside.

  Possible new group structure

The diagram on the following page shows how the Club might fit into a new group structure. It shows SLFC initially owning a 60% interest in the Club, with this rising to some 71% once all the banks’ convertible SLFC loan stock has been acquired by SLFC and converted to new shares in LFC.
 

The structure also allows for a third party commercial investor.
 
 

ShareLiverpoolFC Capital Structure

The following shows how the revised capital structure of SLFC may look under these proposals.
 

Liverpool Football ClubCurrent Capital Structure – at date of last audited accounts
 
 
 

The schedule on the previous page sets out the current capital of LFC and then how the current capital of New Holding Company would look under these proposals. Essentially there would be a total of £350 million new long term capital. Initially SLFC would have a 60% equity interest in LFC (through New Holding Company) rising to 71% on acquisition and conversion of the banks’ convertible LFC loan stock to new LFC shares which would be held directly by SLFC. It’s proposed that the banks’ convertible LFC loan stock would be acquired in instalments over about twenty years, being funded by dividends from LFC.
 

The proposal assumes that LFC would be able to pay a total annual dividend of £12.5 million on its ordinary (equity) shares to New Holding Company. With the interest cost on the banks’ convertible loan stock, total financing costs would be £14.5 million pa reducing over 20 years to £12.5 million pa. We believe that this is a modest total financing cost for a club of LFC’s size. Other short term bank facilities have not been considered as part of this paper, as any application for such facilities would be based on the business case at the time.
 

Out of the £12.5 million of dividends New Holding Company would receive from LFC, it would pay £7.5 million pa to SLFC in the form of dividends and interest. From the £7.5 million pa received from New Holding Company SLFC would pay £2.8 million (£140 million at 2%) on its subordinated loan notes providing a pa surplus of £4.7 million. If cash wasn’t available for LFC to pay a dividend then interest would be rolled up on the loan stock respectively issued by New Holding Company and SLFC. Assuming LFC can pay such dividends each year and there is modest growth in the dividends paid, the annual surplus SLFC funds could be used to purchase the banks’ convertible LFC loan stock in equal annual instalments over a 20 year term, though it may be quicker if LFC’s profits were higher during the period.  ShareLiverpoolFCJuly 2009

SoS have adjusted the requirement to be 500 (GBP) for a share...

KOP UNlimited propose that the Global Fan base start joining "Savings groups" as per the above (in Liverpool there is the "Credit Union")  which enables even the poorest REDS Supporter to join in the ownership scheme.

Dear Graham
cc: rogan

Strategic proposal

- as I have had no reply to my email (below) I propose the following action to secure the club for the global Lfc supporters
(10% will not prevent further exploitation of OUR loyalty, our club , or its assets) ;

1. As a solitictor (and "officer of the courts") it is your obvious duty to protect the situation from further abuse, and therefore take out an INJUNCTION to
- stop the sale of the club (or any part of it) , including the existing players squad
2. To suspend payments to RBOS pending an investigation into the actions of said bankers , and the relationship with G & H,  Purslow and Broughton.
(the level of borrowing itself is contrary to the interests of the club & its members)
3. LFCNY to lead a (threatened) "class action" V G & H in the USA, several different claims from supporters & suppliers & former employees, not least the global supporters base who have been defrauded since acquisition by G & H (and arguably prior to that date, but thats another arguement)
4. K. Gill/ D. Gill to front a campaign to ensure that the Global Lfc Supporters are fully & equally represented in the new club, which requires a new structure of organisation (alternative proposal to connect ShareLfc, SoS & Kop UNltd via "AFC Liverpool" as VEHICLE to take over Lfc)
5. Promotions & initiatives to achieve income worldwide for the global supporters fund, with "LiverBird products & services" ...Kit, souvenirs & t-shirts, drinks (Red Bevvy etc) bringing the "rogue traders"  into the "Global Reds" network.

Methods etc, to achieve the 100% ownership require experience , ability & dynamic management, a committee is not able to negociate in this "sea of sharks" so whatever differences there are , the common goals must surely be y-our focus?
