Takeover in trouble

I’d expect that Campbell’s lot have looked over the books and seen things and haggled over the price which is why things get looked at which is fair enough. I also suspect that the further investment option from Sartori was a hustle to say ‘I’ve got other options’. They’ve called him out and now they’re possibly doing their own hustling through Nixon and Donald’s business deal is in jeopardy. The business side of football is a murky cutthroat world.

For the record all of the above is total guess work / Sunday morning fantasy. Waiting for Murdoch to get in touch.

This.
Donald sells a story and provides his information, heads of terms agreed.
Campbell gets his own due diligence done, with access to the books etc. DD uncovers some stuff that Donald didn’t disclose.
Campbell looks to negotiate. Donald has cover to say the other side is reneging on promise.
This is all very standard stuff and if Campbell is a finance guy then this is all predictable.
 
Was posted last night that all players were up for sale, i said nah!! to that.

I still would agree haggling is going on regards "takeover", but its bound to be.

But i dont see multi millions coming into club. SD said on radio he meets folk who want a slice of the club and wont sell to anyone, and i have to believe him

I honestly don’t know what to do with it to be honest, apart from the fact I’m not posting it.

If true though a lot of worms will be jumping out of cans.

If any journalists read this, I have a price :lol:

If he needs to borrow a bit to get out of this league with crowds of 30,000 then he’s got the wrong manager and scouts.

As I pointed out earlier though the three clubs who went up in 2016/17... Sheff Utd, Millwall and Bolton, all lost in excess of £6m the season they went up and more than that the season before. Losing money is an inescapable fact of life sub-PL for ambitious clubs. Of course if you're not ambitious and are happy moving up and down the lower leagues while ekeing out a living developing players then it's possible to get by. Are we that type of club? The answer is obviously no so the owners need to embrace that ambition and shouldn't be frightened of a modicum of debt.

Heard it on a podcast or summat with Charlie methven

Hobson's choice really. Fail this season and I doubt he'll own a viable investment so he can't let anything get in the way of ensuring we go up. It's not an expensive league to wheel and deal in and the three clubs who went up the season before last all made losses over £6m for the season. He may need to borrow a bit to achieve his aims but he can't allow this proposed takeover to derail preparations.



I think it's you who needs to chill you f***ing loon :lol:

Nixon is a gobshite mag. Gets his stories off here such as the McLaughlin rumour

If Speedy is talking shit he should be banned from here permanently tbh for spreading propaganda and misery at a time we don't need it.

No propaganda or shit being spread. Just some info I was told in good faith.

Whether he goes or not remains to be seen, but they’re hardly going to admit his name has been passed on to agents as a sellable asset.

Do you think I actually want to know this negative stuff about the club I love?
I’ll be as fuming as anyone else it he leaves.

The don just retweeted saying it’s true

According to rumours we have already lost out on 86 transfer targets, we won't sign a player all pre season. Now we have rumours about these two. Modern football is just full of people making up rubbish, trying to look like they are ITK. We are not trying to get rid

That tweet?
