    HE HAS SAID IT.

    Good god, what are you people talking about :D He said in the RR podcast on 28th May that he used the money to pay off Short.



    Tell me, on what basis could he sue anyone for repeating his own words?

    Re what Chunks said, please take note, Kitten . . . . you'll have noticed that I've had to edit your content :emoticon-0105-wink:

    We don't understand fully, as brb has already said, but it's not worth the risk to the site <sorry>

    That's fine, but he is saying this Gordon, listen to that link and then tell me what I have said that crosses whatever line people here seem to believe exists, where repeating or documenting our owner's words is now a thought crime. I'll happily not post if you don't want me to, but this is not anything that he has not said himself.

    Its not just that though is it, you have been quite vocal in your analysis of the accounts and the goings on.
    What I am saying is it hardly right to post them on here where others who don't understand it could get into bother

    Edit rtg have and I suggest would delete your posts almost as soon as they were posted

    Agreed. I have never been able to get my head around the total about turn ref the parachute payments first being an insurance for ES then being used to buy the club without anyone batting an eyelid.

    Cant find them now - looks like they may have been deleted - probably as he knew he would be getting a knock from the old bill.

    Reckons he some kind of finance person and keeps pulling apart the finances of the club

    Fine I'll move on mate.
    What have I said? That's why I'm asking where the line is?

    People here are getting confused. Libel only applies where there is a demonstrable untruth. All I am doing is repeating the words of our Dear Leader.

    All I am trying to do here is try and parse this into 'laymans terms'. I'm being extremely careful about what I say, but frankly I don't even need to be. I don't think he's done anything 'wrong', I just don't think he should be using the club's money to pay off his own debt to Short when he then goes on to say he has it himself :D

    fyi I haven't posted anything anywhere else, so if someone else is doing the same thing, it isn't me.

    Just got a whatsapp. I'm sure if there's one thing you can gather, I'm literate, and I love bullet points :D

    That diatribe isn't me. I haven't had a chance to properly read it yet.

    Unless you work for the club or their auditors, you have no idea what they have had to put into the club already to cover payments going out. They were supposed to get £10m for NDong but didn't. They might have had to pay out for Alvarez, Kone, Khazri and who knows what else that was in the closet, that could add up to millions more.

    If you don't know all the ins and outs, stop spreading rumours that he's trying to screw us over. The atmosphere is toxic enough.

    So what if he did? The club is debt free. They don't want to spend any more on players to save our FFP loss allowance for the championship. If SD still owes the club millions, maybe he's also paying the club interest? Maybe he's making a lot more money in his investment accounts than the club would make with it sat in their account. You don't know.

    Exactly.. people are getting hung up on the way money was accounted for after the takeover by SD - however things were accounted for I think the club is far healthier than I ever expected us to be at this point. We were doomed with £zillions of debt and relegation - yet somehow we escaped from the worst unlike Bury, and now we're in a position where we're arguing over £10 million here and there. We're lucky we are where we are in some respects .
