well no, not really. Rodwell could be. There are owners of clubs who go nowhere near these meetings and send chairmen etc
As if the club would embark on the restructuring of the last week if administration was a possibility, a quite mental piece of journalism.
again - not the daily mails fault here. I hate the daily mail as much as the next person but if our majority owner says it might happen they’ve got every right to report he’s said it might happen. they’ve not said we are at risk of it - just that HE has. And he has.
As if SD even if there was a hint of a takeover would take the club into administration and risk getting nothing as he would have no say at that point
obviously. That’s my problem here. He’s still invested enough to be making outrageous statements in an attempt to get a better bail out. To me, that sends alarm bells ringing when he’s supposed to be long gone and we are about to have a billionaire take over.
yes. And he’s sounding like an owner who’s worried enough about his bank account to make up outrageous comments like this at a meeting he really doesn’t need to be at unless he wants to be. Rather than an owner who’s done with the club and just wants to be a silent shareholder and knows somebody with money is rolling into town next week. Again, I am still massively in the “it’s happening” camp. But people need to stop thinking there’s either a positive or negative point of view here. It’s quite clear there have been signs this week that prompt questions that we all want answering.
There are, definitely. And you know I respect you. But I also think there are too many people doing the opposite, and completely ignoring anything that appears negative and dismissing people with genuine concerns. There’s a middle ground here. And I’m still in the cautious optimism camp.
They are mate, but if it is rubbish, the club should say so. I mean it isn’t that long ago Charlie said we were in cracking financial shape, or words to that effect
Exactly. If we went into administration it would mean we couldn't pay our bills, including the FPP loan, which would basically hand them the club for nothing. Also, it's the Daily Mail. That paper has hated us for years, going back to the mid 90's. It's no surprise that they've got a negative spin on it.
