I suppose there is others on here who don’t read any of these, so like Smug isn’t concerned at all by the drivel they write.
One thing that always sticks in my mind when Kyril bought shares in Sunderland is when he made negative comments about the previous regime that included Juan Sartori. Now he's aligning himself with Sartori and distancing himself from CM and SD. He was also involved in giving the impression it was a majority share holding he bought but at least he apologised for that. It's all a bit of a mess.
It's definitely a mess. even people that fully back KLD (like I do) should be able to admit that the situation where he owns 41% of the club but wants complete control is not an ideal situation, even if it makes sense for him, and even if we are able to continue progressing. What's important though is that progression. If there's no resolution to all this and we are in the bottom 6 or so come October, all hell will be on, unfortunately.
Didn't someone speculate that Sartori run for president or whatever prevented him from having ownership with voting rights in another country so he handed the voting rights over to KLD?
I joined when it was FTM executive club, so been on a while. Drifted away when I came over here, can’t be arsed to even lurk now and I pretty much did that for 20 years over there. Much better here, it’s been getting worse for years over there with plenty of crap being served up daily. I even feel like contributing here which I rarely did over there due to its inherent nature. RTG is eating itself alive, such a shame.
For all we know KLD has an agreement in place with Sartori to buy his shares if ever he wants out. If so he wouldn't even consider purchasing tweedledumb and dumbers shares unless the price was what he wanted
The least best outcome is Methvan being left on his own and having to try to fund stuff and having his shares slowly diluted in a cut-by-cut slow painful death
I’m struggling to see what Tom White has done wrong? He’s reporting info from sources, one of which will be Dave Jones and because we don’t like the news he is getting pelters. I don’t trust any of them and I include KLD and JS in this, it’s a mess. From everyone feeling really optimistic a couple of weeks ago to now wondering what the hell is going on. Just my opinion like
Back to beaches for a second.... @Smug in Boots Brighouse Bay beach is canny, just past Borgue if travelling from Newton Stewart Another canny one is at Carrick, which is just before Borgue...small and quite secluded, you can wade over to the small island opposite. Kippford and Rockcliff are both nice as well, both South of Castle Douglas and Dalbeattie. Well worth a visit.
In my opinion Tom should of done some digging before he broke it, and if he has done the digging it’s frightening
