Liverpool FC Chairman Martin Broughton spoke with delight after emerging from Court 18 in the Royal Courts of Justice in London this morning. Addressing a media scrum alongside fellow Board members Christian Purslow and Ian Ayre, he gave the following interview.

Mr Broughton, your reaction to the outcome today?

We are delighted with the result. We feel justice has been done. That's what we came for and that's what we got. We are delighted.

Will you still have to seek a declaratory judgement as well?

We will take legal advice on that. We will get the board reconstituted by 8pm this evening and we will plan to have a board meeting soon after that.

And your intention is to continue with the sale to NESV?

We will continue with the sale process.

What do you think of the owners' behaviour throughout this process?

I don't wish to comment on the owners' behaviour. I've commented on that enough. I think the court has argued in favour of the sale.

Will NESV own the club by tomorrow?

There's a board meeting this evening, hopefully to determine whether or not that is the case.

Do you have a duty to consider any of the other bids that have come in that may be higher?

We will take legal advice on this.
