Chas, I mean Kildare, do you think the investors will insist on replacing the current ‘back room staff’ with a dynamic alternative to reflect, in some ways, the dynamism of your leisure slacks?

the current investors seem to have authoruty to replace anyone..they arent dircetors of safc..they arent sharehodlers in safc,..they havwent even invested, technically in safc..but in madrox..a company that em[ploys no backroom staff..or indeed staff at all.

Cm said in his interview this week that juan put nore cash in recently..

My understanding was that Juan would have paid the full price for his shares once all payments to Short had been made, which would have been around when the SBC loan was cleared. IIRC this valued the club at around £40M ish but I cannot recall the full details.
The money that Juan, SD & CM have put in now would appear to be new money and my guess is that this may be linked to the Investment by FPP.

Go on then. What are the ‘lots of tournaments’ they’ve been winning?

He’s right like mate. For the last couple of years at least, in pretty much every age group up to the 18’s, we’ve been performing excellently and have won a fair few prestigious national and trans European tournaments and competitions.

It’s part of the reason the vultures are circling so much.

£3m waz the fukk price for the shares..despite the myth making on here (npt helped by the owners to be fair) they paiid £15m for the shares...so juan's £3m is 20 per cent.

It’s not a myth from on here it’s what we were told by the new owners on several occasions!

they never said £40m for the shares..but they did say paid £40m total for the club..which was wrong..
point is, the deal was £15m for the shares..£25m of debt..total value of deal is £40m..

Yes it was wrong and came from them not a myth from here.
Interestingly we aren’t being told much/anything about this deal I wonder if the two are connected.

why would you be told about this latest deal?
its nowt to do with safc...the americans have invested into madrox..safcshares dot change hands and safc isnt in debt as a result?
this deal doesnt change the equity value of the club, or pass comment on it..really we wont know the full pictre untilhe accous are released showing how much SD CM AND JS have put in both prior to this deal and afterwards..

Fair enough but the under 18’s are lambs to the slaughter which is a massive nosedive the under 23’s are poor and the first team bang average all of which are evidence the balance of focus on football performance v cost savings hasn’t been right. You can’t blame Ross for all three. Ultimately that’s why we’ve lost people. Bad business in the medium/longer term. My instinct says that hasn’t mattered to the board it’s short term profit on investment that mattered. It appears the new deal provides financial reward for success which is reassuring but I’m not reassured about the same people making decisions.

firstly..im gald they atent bragging about big budgets etc its a really good way to get over charged for players..

SD complained several times on podcast about what he called the sunderland tax...yet the reason clubs thought they could do that was becayse of his boasting about the budgte..

those new scouts for tony coton..you think we could possibly be hiring them to find us footbal;ers for the first team?

Coton contacted the scouts close to where I live but they were all busy on Bob a Job week.
 
kildaremackem said:
were they the corrupt incompetents that were here before coton?
or the ones that thought lee camp and jason steele are goalkeeperrs?
thats thestandard of scout that was at safc beforehand.

So because they used to he shite should we be happy that's it been nigh on non existent for over a year?


I've yet to see one convincing argument for cutting the scouting back to such a low level.
