I fully accept the reasons why people feel mislead. However, if Madrox are “running the show” does that mean all the good things in the season so far are down to them too? Or is it only since we’ve collapsed?

They aren't on the board, other than Sartori and KLD is running the show. Everything seems to suggest that Sartori is with KLD.

I'm not massively bothered by the percentage announcement to be honest. I admit, it's not exactly what I expected, but on a high level I trust KLD 1000% more than Donald. Sartori comes across to me a massive asset to the club. He's got the 'ear' and the respect of some mega rich individuals (as has KLD), and you never know when you're going to need those contacts. Methven is a mouthpiece pure and simple, not enough clout to be of worry.
KLD came into this with a plan and a lot of extremely experienced football/business people behind him for advice.
Plans will inevitably change depending on how the football side is going and also how other business side of things change.
One thing I'm sure of is KLD and his family have a huge history in football and is massively respected for it. He wants to make his name and his families name even bigger and even more respected just like his dad did. No way on God's earth will he/they contemplate being made to look like fools by a tinpot small time insurance salesman like Donald.
I reckon we chill out, have a bit of patience and we'll see the benefits over time. It's taken years and years to get as low as we've felt recently, and it might take a few years to get the good times back.

Asset?


Asset?

The fella dines on the fans dime with pints and selfies once a year but he’s an asset?

Fancy writing all that out thinking it’s true :lol:

The bit i dont know is what he was promised.

I would imagine that in normal circumstances say we want to buy a million pound player (ooo the days) he would invest £410k they would invest the other £590k. Now if they are not playing ball and want him to invest the full million why would he? He increases the value of their shares a minimum or no gain to himself.

KLD has blatantly mislead all of us. His 41% gives him a controlling interest yes but that isn’t a majority shareholding as was stated when he supposedly took over.

This news is criminal, to let the fan base think he had overall control of the club is blatant deceit.

There is literally NO COMING BACK FROM THIS, my guess he will sell his share and hopefully we will find a buyer who will his and the other liars shares aswell

Can you share the quote about the majority shareholding bit? I honestly don't believe this was ever said

Pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes with a genius bit of PR to be fair. It’s now fallen apart like.

how?

honestly, if you think Methven is able to get some kid to dip into his multi-billion quid trust fund without his and the family lawyers having their mits all over it you think a lot more of him and his talents than I do. He couldn't even sort out the music for the players to run out to let alone run a football club now we think he can dupe KLD, his family, the family lawyer Igor Levin and Louis-Dreyfus Company Chief Financial Office (whose revenues are 36.5 billion quid if wikipedia is to be believed) Patrick Treuer is for the birds am afraid. these billionaires don't throw money around without protections and a lot of them, look at when short came in to rescue the Irish consortium he did so with a ton of guarantees and eventually became sole owner.

reckon his mam found out he bought a bit of the football club whilst reading the papers?

Steve Davison was an appointment by KLD, his brother is on the board, Patrick Treuer and Igor Levin and if KLD goes I would imagine all those would follow. Steve Davidson was also running big business before he came to us and I very much doubt he would leave that company where he was for decades to be answerable to Methven and Donald, I mean its laughable.

the fact that KLD is ever present at the matches and the Defoe pictures, the appointment of Keane did feel like the actions of a billionaires play thing.

Bob Murray was also singing the praises of KLD having said an unfortunate term to describe what Methven and others have done to the club.

I have long been uncomfortable with KLD and his team doing the work, putting the money to get us out of the league and the gruesome trio sell their shares at a premium compared to what they paid for them presumably to KLD.

Source? Or was it just a rumour doing the rounds. Methane would be the exact sort of personality to put Keane off. Perhaps he saw that them 2 gonads were still here having a say and it was a bit more murky than is portrayed in public. There is a reason he walked away

just a rumour...i reckon methven would know keane though..they are both media folk now...
 
Bored with lots of money to play with but not willing to part with enough to buy a Premier League side. I assume Sartori and the glamour he brings attracted KLD. Hopefully for both you fans and KLD he gets a couple of promotions to the Prem and lives out the football owning dream before packing it in.
