Takeover News/Rumours - Part 42

[Grumpy Old Man]

Surely FPP would want it back before/same time any takeover happens though?
After all, the loan was clearly a way for them to have Donald over a barrel and possibly acquire the club for a lot less than they were quoted.

Not necessarily. The presence of K L-D actually enhances their security. There aren't any grounds for them to enforce the debt.

Is this the new takeover thread?

Aye, am allowed back on aswel!

 

[callum]

More i hear about this, the more worrying it seems. Spoke to a marseille fan early in the week who said the family weren't liked at all, selling everything they could and making Drogba leave etc.

I’m sure a 5/6 year old KLD was the mastermind behind his exodus!

 

[Confucius]

Aye, am allowed back on aswel!

Not for long

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but If KLD and Sartori buy 80% of Madrox, would they then be responsible for 80% of the loan? Or is it up to the Madrox board members to decide amongst themselves how it gets repaid? If it's been left in there then that must be factored into the share price surely?

Just as stupid people thinking what he learned at Marseilles as a 5/6 year old means he knows what he's doing tbf

ED.....continued from this thread


Some are getting too obsessed with CM remaining.

The sporting director will be running everything that's important for us, performance, recruitment and team matters etc. That's the key appointment.

Wasnt the remit of methven and Donald to attract rich investors, so they brought in sartori and now perhaps Dreyfus? Yes they made bad footy decisions but from a streamlining and investment point of view doing a canny job. I don't care if he is there or not, as long as he remains silent.

Eeeehhh why?

 

[Jambezz]

"Takeover and new manager expected later this week.

Other key appointments expected late December / early January.

Satori / Dreyfus making the calls not Donald or Methven."

From Wheatsheaf on the other board. Think he's been spot on so far?

Daddy, I don’t like Drogba! Sell him to Chelsea or I’ll cry and cry and cry!

His source is one of the signatories of the deal.

It’s done

Manager before a sporting director is a mistake - particularly if it's Poyet

Aye I think you should be hiring a manager who can work well with your SD rather than the other way round.

We’ll see how it pans out though.

Edit - I’ve worded that terribly, but you know what I mean.

Why? a manager is the more pressing need.

He may be happy with the SD? or be having an input into it.

 

[PottsySAFC]

From the snippets from the ITKs I got the impression the SD was already picked? Maybe they mean under 18s coach/academy manager/etc.?

Doesn't necessarily mean the sporting director isn't sorted and wasn't involved in that decision, just that it won't be announced until the end of the month. Can depend on their current employment/personal status.

Do 'other key appointments' include the sporting director do you know? If so they've done it the wrong way round!

Unless the SpD is working out a notice elsewhere and has been consulted on the manager pick.

 

[Hot Since 82]

Aye, am allowed back on aswel!

Haway mods, this is an oversight surely.
Reported.
