If a period of exclusivity or a due diligence examination has now been completed and nobody has walked away...then would the negotiations...the real negotiations, only really begin now.
I would have thought that previously the heads of an agreement may have been put in place.
The asking price.
The current boards vision for the club.
The new owners vision.
The new stadium.
The funding for the project.
The ownership/management structure.
Others as well I am sure.
But, if everybody is coming back to the table then are the real nitty gritty details only coming for discussion now?
This is a huge deal and a hugely complicated deal.
I would not be surprised if nothing is heard for weeks yet.
I am sure the council and their plans may also have a bearing in all of this.

If I was taking over Everton I'd certainly want to have had lengthy discussions with the council and land authorities about redevelopment of Goodison or the new WHP development.
Future planning for the club would hinge on what they said and I couldn't in the right conscience buy the club without a clear plan going forward or at least an understanding where we stood. Would ideally have done that prior or during the process of due diligence mind.

Yep, I imagine they'll be doing a lot of looking at paper work for all the planned stadium moves as it will be one of the major factors in the deal.
If we are taken over by Americans then I can see them trying to play tough with LCC.
They have no allegiance to the city and would happily relocate anywhere if a good enough offer was on the table.
The television money is the key driver of the takeover and upsetting a few supporters would not bother them either I expect.

Nobody has a clue really. Journalists don't know, nor do the reliable folk on here. We can all just continue with hypotheticals. Not a rant. Just fact...... My two cents is i want to be sold to the most wealthy person who is willing to build a new stadium AND a shed load on players within FFP regs.
....yep, I remember the Irish horse racing link. I can only think this could be John Magnier (but I think he has links with Man Utd); J P McManus or Michael O'Leary (owner of Ryanair and Gigglestown horses).

Plenty of land available round Chorley where you could build a new stadium. M61 and M6 links on our doorstep. Electrification of the rail line is going to happen fairly soon so good public transport links too. Personally I welcome our new American overlords tough bargaining position with the council.

Judging on the last exchange between club and council, If i was looking for a takeover, i would walk away at that point.

Liverpool City Council will contribute nothing but expect something out of the arrangement. That's the way it is with public sector involvement these days. Don't think LCC offer anything at all. If you look at their ongoing consultation group meetings (Chaired by Simon O'Brien) about open /green spaces in the city the common thread is about using them to generate revenue at every level.
And the biggest Mormon temple outside the States for the God fearing yankee owners to go pre-match for their spiritual absolution.
It comes down to this...
Do you as a fan trust the current owners to get it right when selling this club to a new owner who will be able to take this club to the next level?
My personal interpretation of the next level is:-
1. Winning Football Silverware within 2 seasons
2 Moving into a new stadium within 3 Years.
3. Injecting capital into the club to support the purchase of players to challenge the top 4 within 2 seasons.
4. Growing the brand on a global basis to support additional commercial revenue streams and increase the global fan base.
If we are selling to a new owner who cannot meet any of the above then IMHO I will hold onto my memories of the 80,s and it,s goodnight and good-luck.

Personally I don't think #2 is even possible. Spurs are taking 4 years to build their boss stadium, I'd like something similar.
