| 词条 | Terry Neill (Liverpool) |
| 释义 |
Neill left Bowaters to set up his own packaging and plastics[3] business, exploited the new trend for own-branding by supermarkets and then sold out in 1995, when the annual turnover had reached £15m, to become a venture capitalist.[2] Neill has had racehorses in training with Martin Pipe, Michael Bell and Richard Hannon, Sr.. His best horse was probably Gloria Victis, who had to be put down after running a tremendously brave race in the Tote Cheltenham Gold Cup at the 2000 Cheltenham Festival. Neill had gained his biggest win as an owner with his first-ever runner at the Festival, when Dark Stranger landed the Mildmay Of Flete Handicap Chase in the same year. Gloria Victis had previously given Neill another major win in the Racing Post Chase at Kempton in February of that year when, despite being a novice carrying top weight, he defeated experienced handicappers in impressive fashion.[1] Neill was first reported to be in preliminary discussions to buy a major slice of Liverpool FC, the club he watched as a boy,[2] in 1999, in partnership with Jersey-based property tycoon Steve Morgan.[3] By the following year, he was the fourth largest shareholder in the club.[2] He owned 3 per cent of the club by the time of a takeover bid in 2007.[4] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web | title = Nine Days To Go Until The Martell Grand National 2001 | publisher = RACENEWSonline | date = 29 March 2001 | url = http://www.racenewsonline.co.uk/newslink/archive/301/290301.htm | accessdate = 26 December 2013 }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Neill, Terry}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web | last = Longmore | first = Andrew | title = Dark hope after the hysteria: Terry Neill Interview: The owner pitched by tragedy into a national debate casts a nervous glance towards Aintree | work = The Independent | date = 26 March 2000 | url = https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/dark-hope-after-the-hysteria-283635.html | accessdate = 26 December 2013 }} 3. ^1 {{cite web | title = Football: Hotline - Liverpool For Sale!
