    Remember him
    In a pub down Doncaster, before we knew what he was like. Lording it over folk and accepting free drinks off fans. Nial Quinn would have bought a round,

    Im happily (and maybe blindly) of the completely opposite view. The people who can’t have their cake and eat it are those that bought the club using it’s own money, spoiling a number of opportunities of serious investment through their greed, and now want out with a decent wedge in their pocket.
    My view is that KLD or his family will take up the shares, but only at what they deem to be a realistic price and probably when the chancers greed has finally caught up with them and they aren’t able to meet their obligations anymore. They’ll come cap in hand for their shares to be sold rather than being ruined financially with the millstone of SAFC hanging round their necks

    Aye if you can’t just contribute instead of detracting.

    As it is widely know KLD and dumb and dumber do not get on.

    my only point is that he wants to share the investment requirements, share the risk, but not share control

    I’m perfectly happy with that as I love how he controls the club. BUT if it continues for too long it will restrict investment into the club, as nobody will want to be a minority shareholder with no voice

    the only hope is he buys them or his family or an acquaintance, who is happy for him to run the club, does.

    I was asking a genuine question. Quite childish being asked to leave for asking a question. Wow there's some big ego's on here

    It was open for a couple of days in the week leading up to Wembley.. I’d be surprised if the home kit wasn’t revealed tomorrow

    He said to a mate of mine its not the cost of their shares, its more they got him involved in the club, and now because of fan pressure they are ducking out.
    He feels let down.
    Both JS and CM brought him on board, and although JS has said he will keep his shares for now.

    If you don’t mind. You’re proper stinking this board out. Not so much aggressive but looking for an argument definitely.
