Takeover News/Rumours - Part 42

[GBSAFC]

He'll move on to claiming he's acting as a consultant.

Consultant what .. heed the ball??

 

[North Yorks Mackem]

Really? They'll not go back if we're successful because of two minor shareholders? There's bearing a grudge, and being mule-headed, and that's the latter.

It will undoubtedly become much more of an issue if we continue to struggle.

And i just dont think people will believe they are silent shareholders. They have lied continuously as owners of the club.

It is a big issue them staying on, though, even as minority shareholders. Youd be very naive to think otherwise.

Let's see what emerges when the dust clears. The structure of shareholdings and board memberships will reveal much. I'm still amazed people think Donald actually wants to have anything to do with us, other than as a future cheque. Everything suggests he's even less engaged than Short was at the end already.

Yup. It will be an issue for a lot of people. If we don’t hit the ground running there’ll be hell on imo.

 

[HeroHurley]

Not ITK to anything to do with this but I’d suspect we may not hear anything of a head coach appointment until the senior roles are filled which by all accounts could be by the end of the weekend.

 

[Jasper]

I don't, but if the other moves afoot are as suggested, there's no real need. Chairman is pretty much a courtesy title anyway. If there is one, it will be JS or K L-D as non-exec chairman.

Ok thanks

Just get one git long one.

good idea

So why doesn’t he just f#ck off?

Serves you right for not putting down a couple of decent bottles of Port when you first heard the rumours

You’ll need a new fridge by the time this “takeover” gets announced mate

He wants more money by selling part of his shares for more later. No more, no less.

Money, money, money, money

He knows the potential for growth and wants those shares to grow with it in value. The same as anybody who holds shares in a company, to make money. I wish I could buy shares in us now, again!

Which would make the whole Poyet thing even weirder

 

[one armed boxer]

Looks like the parky clone will be managing on Saturday then.

Fear not. Announcements tomorrow.

What the hell happened there ? Was he ever in the frame ?

 

[wigwams]

What the hell happened there ? Was he ever in the frame ?

God knows. A lot of people seemed certain he'd signed then nothing but silence. I don't doubt that people get info but a few people got fed a right load of bollocks on this occasion

 

[HeroHurley]

What the hell happened there ? Was he ever in the frame ?

Apparently so. Two people who I know, one is in a media position but not based in the NE but has strong NE links and the other who has left the club last year, strongly suggested to me that it was all but done bar the crossing of the T in Poyet. Now I don’t profess to be ITK, sometimes I’ve heard things, sometimes I’ve heard nothing so I won’t waste my time on here but I’ve no reason to believe that never mind one but two people but would lie to me. Gus was wanting to come back and he knew about the finances and structure that he was going to be part of so I suspect whatever it is that has spooked him has something to do with whoever he was dealing with when it came down to dotting the i’s and more appropriately crossing that final t at the end of his name.
