they are not loaning the club anything they are buying into the club and will put X amount at disposal the same as the rest of the directors. They are Investing in the club in the hope of making a profit further down the line just like the present board members will make by selling their shares..
And how has that worked out for the likes of Cardiff in the past? There is only one issue Mr Slob and that is simply us fans having real concerns about the Club and the direction it's going. From what I've seen here there is little evidence of 'petty jealousy'. I wouldn't be so quick to think the worst of people.
Where did that come from. All reports say they will lend at favourable rates. There is no mention of investment. The 30m goes to existing directors to purchase their shares.
The Difference between us and cardiff is simple, we managed to recruit sound board members who did things slowly but surely sticking to what we could afford while cardiff tried to buy promotion as quickly without worrying about the money they were spending and it put them massively in debt to the tune of £150 million. We did it the sensible way and we reaped the rewards.....there is a lesson to be learned there..
I dont think you quite understand what the club is trying to do trunds...trust me they will be investing into the club..we dont need loans....
Please can someone confirm, I am sure I read somewhere that the investment will come in the way of loans. If not I am going mad.
The club announce quite a while ago now that they will be travelling to America to try and attract investors. Im sure we would not be asking anyone for a loan as that goes against everything we stand for and will be asking for trouble.....
Loan = money we would have to pay back with interest. Investment = money we would have to pay back with interest. Nobody is going to be 'giving' us money. That's the way I see it anyway.
Not at all and if that's your skewed version of the posts then I suggest you settle down and read them again . The topic is about the type of "investors" a very loose term" not that two members are selling up .
This is garbage and shows how little Dai has researched on this John Moores! Firstly this is how John Moores works, he throws out fairy stories about how he is going to put the Swans (Padres) on the sporting map, by spending big, he showers the local officialdom with gifts like some Mafia don, then he gets to work at what he does best, and in the case of the Padres, he cut the players wage bill massively, to maximise the TV revenue, all the Padres supporters were glad when he went as they by then had become a sorry team who were the whipping boys of the game, all the best players were sold for cheap imports, and that is how he will operate here, he didn't have a clue regarding Base ball, and you can bet he'll be clueless about the PL, but one thing this greedy bugger will not be clueless about is milking the ever increasing TV rights we get from the Barclays Premier league, and that is what he wants to get his fat grubby texan hands on, and as far as I'm concerned the Slime ball can Piss off!..................
Paid!.............................. Some of your questions that Dai has as usual not answered are answered here. Link: http://www.swanstrust.co.uk/2014/12...w-shareholders-in-swansea-city-football-club/
Can you confirm the following points The new shareholders are buying the shares from two members who are selling them , ? In return they will put x amount into a pot which the Club can use to manage the finances ,? There will be no loans which involve the club paying interest back to the new board members ? And finally the current arrangements mean that the Board are currently depositing monies annually/monthly /weekly to run the Club ?
