I don’t think so, but not 100%. I said last night to on here he was looking for investment from ‘another party’ so he could hang around longer. Would make minimal business sense long term though as he’d have too many cooks in the kitchen, but the bloke will do anything to cling on for longer

Yes, they do.

If you consider that post as being 'jumped on' you need to ask Mammy for a cuddle ...

... and you weren't immediately jumped on, it was just when you repeated the same thing in post after post.

Strange how you're 'both' on here at exactly the same time after not posting at all.

Come on man, put some effort in and make it a bit less obvious <doh>

**** me mate. Let it go. This is why I ignore you. You‘ve made you mouth go, trying to get everyone to believe something is happening when it isn’t, and Blasted down anyone who try’s to say anything different or tries to stand up for themselves and you are still trying to say posters are other posters in disguise.... grow up. I see you’re not trying to push the sale now... I bet you’ll say it’s because of Covid and the talks broke at the last hurdle like SD will come out and say soon... it hasn’t stopped Wigan or Charlton has it

I know they have final say/first option on a sale, but regarding investment I’m not sure. Where have you read/heard SD can’t seek another investor? As long as the loan is repaid and they get first option, then that’s it isn’t it?

Obviously might be wrong but I’m sure FPP have to agree on any out side investment into the club

Like I said, I’m not sure. I Remember they have final say or first option on a sale but I would have thought over investment would have been too hard to control? I’m sponsorship deals, shirt sponsors, club sponsors etc. Maybe not on the same scale as another major investor, but I guess we’ll never know on ten agreement

Magnus you aren’t sounding as confident as you have been before today, if you don’t mind me saying

As I said above I understand why people are un confident after the reports coming out any club with any ambition wouldn’t vote for that, but it doesn’t prove nothing at all is going on , any owner needs to plan for the future in case anything falls through, (very **** under current owners)
like I’ve said though If what I’ve been told just come from the club I would be worried, but I’m not yet because it hasn’t just come from the club, we need a clear statement from the club now though, if it’s ‘pushed’ back again at the end of this month I’ll be very worried

That’s a positive that you have heard things from both sides? Sorry I’ve you have said this before but have both sides said similar? Just with people hearing loads of dif info.

He’s definitely heard the news we all knew was going to be the truth.

investment,all the recent signs have been pointing towards this but we have kidded ourselves otherwise for over a month.

Exactly. I sound certain as I am. There’s nothing going on. Bob (who ever he is), is partially right. SD is trying to find investment as that’s the only thing that will allow him to stay at the club. He still has some of the FPP money left, but that’s not going to last long, and then he has to pay it back or lose everything. A few People on here don’t like to have their dreams shattered as that’s all they have to hang onto... a takeover! It will happen but not yet. SD has caused all this hysteria to either buy himself time till the window closes and we hopefully have started the season we’ll or to try and flush out a real investor. But as I’ve always said, no ones paying £37m for a league onE team with the money needed on top of that to change us around

Problem is it won’t. The fanzines will come together again with a joint statement, SD will give another interview (probably not to barnes after what he’s done to him) and he’ll make the cock and bull I’m I’ve already said about falling at the last hurdle, talks were close, in the end the ‘party’ wasn’t the right fit for the club, he’s actively trying to leave, will continue to back PP etc etc

Then he’ll probably blame Covid and we’ll get a new academy manager announced (will be one of the boys and a cheap option), Rodwell will be announced as chairman and we’ll go into Christmas hopefully in good form and Then it will raise its head during the Jan window and so it goes

You can see it all happening

I think this is the most likely outcome, but I don't for one second think it was by design. I think everything we've heard has been legit, and it's fallen down at the last because he won't let go.

This is abit of a question would we be able to accept money to help run the club from a 3rd party without FPPs permission, I know it’s in the loan agreement we can’t, so what would
This go under ?
