William Storey

[KittenMittens]

He aint going away and there is probably a very good reason why

Because he can only win from this shite. Google his name 3 weeks ago and he was a public joke. Now he's parlayed what looks like a phantom bid into people tugging themselves off over his beard and a Google search that has references to blue chip investors, £100m businesses and £37m takeovers of football clubs.

Worse people than storey have passed the fit & proper test

Don't know about worse "yet".
Maybe as bad as, although I don't think they acted as unprofessional as to rock up on a bus in a repro top, slag every man and his dog off and state they were going to bend the rules

He has had a bid accepted to buy the club. If the other bid "falls away" he has a very strong chance of being our next owner

I wonder who he posts as on here. I'd wager he's signed up.

Couldn't agree more. It's been poison seen play off final. 2 individuals scrapping in front of players after the game inside Wembley.

Names?

That is not true on any level. He claims to have made a bid, which has not been accepted and the club sources are saying is not happening.

Id rather he went back in time and stopped them pulling that and the town hall down...

As of last night it was true. SD is a gamble away from him being in pole position

Jfc, imagine if we got this charlatan after the charlatan we have now.
Storey, if you're reading this, you should buy Newcastle. They are a FAR BIGGER CLUB FOR YOU! Really. Honestly. Despite hating them, I'm saying this. You should buy them. Arabs should buy us because we're a small club and EFL won't check. Honestly.

Yes i know about Blackpool.
My point is, did they act as unprofessional as Storey before the takeover.
Did they state they were going to ignore/bend rules once they were in charge ?

I have serious doubts about Storey, I think he is a fantasist.
There are many unscrupulous owners without a pot to pìss in just like the recent Wigan debacle.

Then there are the mags

 

[The Ghost of Arca]

He hasn't. He's said as much this afternoon. He's submitted a bid, and that's as far as it's got.

We shall see

I don't see how it can be Storey, surely you don't do deals for football clubs and tweet about it 6 times a day?

Surely you're quiet until the deals done? I mean even SD and CM were and they loved the attention (until they were found out).

The group who have exclusivity are meant to have an NDA in place yet this cretin can't/won't keep his gob shut. No chance that it's his group who have had a bid accepted.

So you can't answer the questions I've asked then?

I agree there's plenty of dodgy things out there which make me dubious but again you've exaggerated evidence that supports your view and dismissed the parts that don't.

How can he be facing a winding up order if there's zero proof of his businesses? When was the winding up order issued?

Why hasn't Mickey Gray identified his backers? That's not a requisite of any takeover at this stage.

He's sponsored Super bikes which means he's shown them funds. Haas also confirmed that they did their due diligence so he had funds to sponsor them.

I really don't see the point in ignoring half of the story. I agree he's probably not a legitimate buyer. His business dealings are mysterious. But there is evidence of money there to provide sponsorship (no idea how much) which you're completely ignoring and dismissing with no evidence.

I said he was facing a winding up order, not that one had been issued. You can’t prove he has funds just as much as I can’t prove he hasn’t , but based on what happened with HAAS and the fact there’s no proof he is a successful businessman its reasonable to assume he doesnt have a pot to piss in. I don’t even know if a Micky Gray involved bid is being considered and haven’t expressed a view on it anyway. How can you agree he’s probably not a legitimate buyer if you believe what you’ve posted, it makes zero sense.

He seems adamant that he is telling the truth and big Stewy D is lying

 

[leerik_canamole]

So if Donald like storeys bid better, can he pull out of the current deal or does the exclusivity mean he's signed to the current deal?

 

[Dilligaf60]

I wouldn’t let him have a seat on a passing bus

I’d be happy enough to hoy him under one given the opportunity. Metaphorically speaking of course.

Unless the people under NDA pull out

What happened with Haas is that they did due diligence. Unless you're also declaring them incompetent then it isn't at all reasonable to reach the conclusion you have.
