The Third Meeting.

[Fez]

If what @Obadiah said is true, about the owners having a buyer lined up for when they were given the freehold for next to nothing, then I think we can all agree that it was never a gift, just a business decision that went wrong.

That's been clear for a long time; although for some of the evangelists on here it took quite a time to sink in. I makes me laugh when I see posters pillioring MoH on here, when we have long standing trolls who change their tune without question.

 

[Fez]

Maybe I’ve misremembered the timeframes, but I couldn’t understand that if there was a buyer lined up so quickly why that buyer didn’t just look to get the club from the start by speaking to the Council about the freehold (of course that might have stopped them anyway, but why wait and have to give the Alllams a slice?)

Perhaps the Allams moved quickly (we have seen that since) and took the opportunity that they had the inside lane on - it was always puzzling why such diligent businessmen carried out their due diligence in a rushed and incomplete manner.

 

[Fez]

I totally disagree and I will give you the benefit of the doubt though you are coming across as a troll which in the current situation we are in it's not funny or clever.

I am certainly no caveman as you put it but the best and only action that should take place during the upcoming televised games is that supporter's enter the pitch and stop the game and have it abandoned it will give us huge press coverage and very importantly embarrass those ****s in charge.

Let's hope others don't share your opinion.

 

[dennisboothstash]

Again fair point, but we have all dealings with councilors and they are never fully truthful

Bit of a sweeping statement, but regardless of how truthful anyone is after a meeting the one thing that seasoned politicians are during formal meetings is guarded
I simply don’t believe the notion the freehold was ever promised

I thought the art of politics is say one thing and do another.

 

[Edelman]

Mr Brady had no need to lie, unless of course you actually believe he was in a position to give away a £44 million public asset all on his own.

Probably true but don' forget awarding of private contracts.!!

No the art is letting people believe you are going to do what they want, even when you’re not

 

[Evington]

According to Allam he was promised the freehold. If he paid for it he wouldn't have made any profit so why would he do that? Especially if he was promised the freehold as a quid pro quo for saving the club.

He's a lying twat. I don't believe anything he says. Do you really?

 

[Chazz Rheinhold]

No the art is letting people believe you are going to do what they want, even when you’re not

And there you have it.

 

[howdentiger]

No the art is letting people believe you are going to do what they want, even when you’re not

So Brady could have made him believe that was what he was going to do......

 

[Fez]

Oh dear...

 

[MingofHarlem]

Let's hope others don't share your opinion.

I don’t. We would only do damage to our reputation as football fans. No, the protests must be smarter than that whatever form they take.

MoH

 

[Edelman]

No the art is letting people believe you are going to do what they want, even when you’re not

Or the art of extrapolating something from the meeting that you want to no matter what was said.
Or in the case of the Allams downright lying about what happened at the meeting to discredit the council and believe that the fans would be on your side !!

 

[dennisboothstash]

Oh dear...

Oh dear what?

 

[dennisboothstash]

So Brady could have made him believe that was what he was going to do......

It was tongue in cheek and referring more to politics in general
A sensible businessman (as opposed to an average voter) should be more switched on anyway, but I absolutely don’t think Brady would have even got close to promising it

 

[Obadiah]

I do though.

 

[originallambrettaman]

I do though.

You're wrong.

 

[balkan tiger]

I do though.

Even if he did surly every man and his dog would know that he wouldn't be able to keep his word. That's not the way councils work, even more so with a valuable community asset.

I think the old fool made a mistake.

 

[Obadiah]

You're wrong.

So you think I wasn't telling the truth when I said Brady was capable of telling Assem Allam he could have the stadium freehold?

 

[originallambrettaman]

So you think I wasn't telling the truth when I said Brady was capable of telling Assem Allam he could have the stadium freehold?

I think the claim that Brady told Allam he could have the stadium is bollocks, I think Allam having another buyer lined up to sell the club straight on to after he got the stadium is also bollocks.
