tracy should hire beth for the bar

As I understand Steve and Liz are co- owners. Steves criminal record expired, Steve and Michelle became joint licensees with Liz as manager.

Steve McDonald purchased the pub from Stella in October 2013, after she decided that the place held too many painful memories for her. Steve enlisted his mother, Liz's help, as he couldn't afford to buy the pub outright. Liz gave him 50% of the money, intending on helping him run the pub. Steve bought the pub in secret, in order to surprise Michelle and intended on making her landlady. On 14 October 2013, just two days after Steve and Michelle took over the reigns from Stella, a fight broke out in the pub between Kylie and Tina . During the action, Liz returned and resumed her place as landlady,



from wikipedia so it must be true

Good old wiki bit lengthy but clears it up "Liz returns to the street again in October 2013. It transpires that both Steve and Liz have bought back The Rovers Return from former landlady, Stella Price (Michelle Collins), owning 45% each. Liz is stunned when she walks into The Rovers and finds Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan) and Kylie Platt (Paula Lane) sharing a catfight in front of the bar. Liz and Kylie's friend Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley) attempt to step in, but Liz watches in horror as Kylie accidentally slaps Eva. After throwing both Kylie and Tina out of the pub, Liz discovers that Steve hasn't told his girlfriend Michelle Connor (Kym Marsh) that she was co-owner. She is further surprised to learn that Michelle is co-landlady and owns 10% of the pub. Following a confrontation with Steve, Michelle resumes her friendship with Liz. Lloyd and Eileen ask how Liz's life was while living in Spain, and Liz replies that it was actually a holiday, although she did own a health spa and a villa whilst there but sold the health spa to buy back The Rovers "

Well you learn something new every day. How did I miss that? Thanks Glen!

Same here must have missed that part. Wonder if the Rovers is placed into receivership. Can't see LIz agreeing voluntarily to sell to Tracy, unless Steve's and Michelle's combined 55% stake forces the sale ? Where does that leave Liz ?

With 45% still.

Of course we have to feature into the equation that Liz's lover Tony is also Tracyluvs lover so he could be a winner either way. If Tracyluv takes over T'Rovers then he would not even have to move his toothbrush from the bathroom cabinet. Much better than the floor of Barlows Bargains.

I hadn't thought of it like that!

Maybe Liz's friend Erica could buy the pub or Leanne with her divorce pay out

[ellie2]

Does not make sense ... surely as co-owners Liz and Michelle would know that bills have not been paid by now and as Steve has hardly been able to function normally for quite a while, they would have taken care of that side of the business????

That is what would happen in the real world Perdita. In Silly Soapland anything is allowed to happen, however far fetched. Killer Tracey swanning around when she should still be locked up is a prime example.
