    Why not post some of this evidence then?

    It can't be a non-disclosure issue, as you're already saying that's been breached.

    All I did was ask some questions and offer an explanation as to why the Allams may have forced the Americans to walk away, mainly on CI. All I got was defensive responses which made me think even harder about why a very rich American consortium didn't just pay the asking price in cash and get on with it. Some people think I've gone over to the dark side or lost my marbles when all I've done is ask if the Americans have the money to buy us and take us to the next level.

    After one post on here it dawned on me who was talking to OLM, David Burns and possibly the Trust. I'm 99% certain I'm right and the name doesn't fill me with confidence. That taken with Burns' tweets, the sign in one week or we walk, the drip drip drip of information about the bid to Burns just makes me feel I'm right. I'm stubborn like that.

    I'm not going to say who I think is talking to Burns and OLM so don't ask.

    PLT seems to lazily lump us all together, yet l expressed some questions about things before I read anything about it from you. I suspect (but don't know) that Chazz's doubts stem from elsewhere too.

    It's hardly just a few on here asking questions (not chucking mud) either.

    The questions may be easily answered, but as yet a 'trust me' from a couple of posters on here doesn't cut it for me. If anything, it raises more questions and doubts.

    And all 3 of us think the Allams should sell up. But they wont unless its the right deal for them.
    6 million seems a piddling amount if Tone has said it was 80 million up front...

    The total debt was somewhere between £70-80m in the last accounts, but we won't know if any of that's been repaid until the next set of accounts are filed.

    Evidence of what? I'm not the one making claims. I was asking you, as well as the other two, what makes you so comfortable criticising the Americans and on what basis. You've already assured me it wasn't just a case of arguing with OLM for the sake of it so I look forward to finding out what you are basing it on.

    That's such a stupid thing to keep saying and you know it is.

    I haven't criticised the Americans, I've queried some versions of events that some are peddling.. If you want it to be personal, if anything I'm criticising you.

    So, are you posting up your evidence?

    I still have no idea what you want evidence of, because despite posting a thousand words in response to the last time I asked, you've said nothing.

    Fancy that eh?

    As most of what I posted was your words, little wonder it said nothing.

    I quoted you saying you made no claim, followed by your previous quote, where you make a claim. <doh>

    I did that not to make you look silly, but to clarify what I wanted evidence of.

    I'll try it a different way.

    You claim to have evidence and information relating to the failed sale.

    I'm quite clearly and simply asking you for proof, by posting it on here.

    It can't be subject to non-disclosure, by the simple fact that you have it.


    I reckon it will speak volumes if you just try to dodge the question again.

    Had due diligence taken place re: the proposed American takeover?

    Or was it just 'talks'?

    There are differing versions. Some versions say they were completed, others say that something else cropped up in the due diligence that lead to the recent ending/delay.

    My guess is that it had been largely, if not altogether completed.

    A delay so close to your financial year end at the end of June would make sense in fairness.

    Add to that, the fact that your current owners might have fancied using a portion of the first slice of this seasons PL TV cash windfall (due in August) to reduce the debt which is effectively theirs and will dilute their equity value pro rata.

    You want me to post evidence of me having information about the failed sale?

    I'm not going to say who it's from if that's what you mean, but I'm pretty sure Obi is wrong with his suspicion on that if it's leading him to think that there's parallels with the Bartlett takeover. It certainly isn't Paul Duffen if that's what he was thinking.

    If that's not what you mean then you'll have to be a bit clearer about what you're after.
