The board meeting will take place after 8pm, the deadline set by Mr Justice Floyd for Hicks and Gillett to consent to reinstate the club board dismantled last week when the Americans attempted to block the NESV sale.
The Liverpool owners ordered the removal of Christian Purslow and Ian Ayre in order to frustrate the sale to NESV, but they must now be reinstated. Should the owners fail to grant permission club chairman Martin Broughton was granted the power to do restore them.
