FPP to take full control

Ahem.

Working on danish ferry parked up in amsterdam.
Danes love beetroot, inexplicably.

Have ignored the beetroot humous, narrow escape, I thought it was some sort of berry/fruit dessert thingy.

With brekky there is 2 jugs of what I thought was smoothies, but was puzzled by the shot glasses.
Asked, told one is ginger, one beetroot.
So bored I tried them.
NEVER again.

 

Other than Fuhrman quitting MSD

It's only been on the Echo 20mins!

I would probably not read too much into this one, except it could mean less link to Michael Dell, but I suspect everyone knew that was a bit of a stretch anyway.

 

I’m going to read into it that he is doing this takeover himself, then again he might not

 

Maybe Fuhrman got cold feet and the other two can go ahead now.

 

Eye of the needle stuff those drinks marra.

 

He's only left Dell's investment company, MSD. It doesn't affect FPP so probably has absolutely no bearing on whether they go ahead with buying SAFC or not.

 

Or maybe he is going alone and doing what smug said he said and is going to own the club by himself

 

I’m already clinging onto this one marra

 

He wouldn't need to leave MSD to do that.

 

You are not alone!

 

He's retiring from MSD, I think it's more likely just a thing where he wants to invest on a different set of principles to MSD. Given this wasn't involving MSD and was their personal investment (I believe) they could still be ok going into business together.

 

The problem is, the Echo, and other sources, are reporting even the slightest move that these three make and it's all being over-interpreted. Most of what's happened in the past week or so probably means absolutely nothing with regard to their intentions towards SAFC.

 

Wouldn't get too high or low on it. It's been planned a while. Doubt if it means a lot yet, maybe more will come out in time.

Maybe the only thing I read into it of any note is that Phelan is likely quite tied up with MSD's running, so I doubt he'll be keen on anything that takes away from his time. I think the original deal of a convertible loan that doesn't involve their input at this stage is good for someone in that position. A full takeover would seem difficult if the two main guys are tied up in those businesses, one at a very early stage and the other being ran by him for the first time without the other.

But again, wouldn't get high or low. Nobody thinks they're going to take over soon anyway, right?

 

I'd be surprised if the three of them invest in us now. A business being split when it is successful usually means there's a personal reason for it. So that personal reason would be there for FPP too. If any, it will be 1 or 2 investing, or even better Dell will join whoever is left.

 

I suspect there is some truth to this and even if they're willing, I think the logistics may have changed.

I don't think MSD will ever come on board though. Gut feeling, but this seemed to be something they wanted to do as a group away from it.

 

This was the case from day 1.

 

Yeah agreed, it's never been on the cards, people just leapt on the link and it became DELL rather than FPP.

 

got a feeling ALS might have caused that, with the SUNDELLAND t shirts they were selling.
