Don't get your hopes up with Jordan...
Would be interesting to hear more about this one though.

Is that a guess or do you know?

That's him. It was something to do with cutting out the middle man with mortgages from memory. He certainly doesn't appear to have the money to do it himself.
Why would ex-players, even ex city players, want to buy CCFC over any other club?

Because it's a traditional biggish club that's in a right old slumber, people are to
Quick to write off the potential of this club. IMHO
It sounds silly but now is the time to buy CCFC. We are bottom of the cycle, football people running a football club. Like many have said we are a sleeping giant. Get this investment right and you could be in the money.
My sources tell me its Lampard, Cole and Stevie G :angelic:

How much would it cost you to buy Wolves, Brum, Leeds or similar? I would guess a whole lot less than to buy us and build a new ground and training complex.

You don't sell at the bottom of the cycle, everyone knows that :woot:

CT just spewing rubbish again, nothing with this story. Just stinks of free advertisement for him and his business.
No doubt their are willing buyers out there, however no purchase option on the stadium. No long term playing deal after next season, I very much doubt anyone of footballing background will be interested.

I know but we have been bottom of the cycle for 5+ years. You need to cut losses at some point

Thing is Dave, not everyone thinks you need to own the ground, in a lot of people's views
A fair rental deal and a negotiated share of revenues would be sufficient.

Which requires goodwill and compromise, SISU has none of the former and less than zero understanding of the latter.
Wasps would probably need a certain amount of buying off to enable a deal, some money up front to enable better commercial conditions going forward.

True - but it's the two things we will NEVER get whilst at the Ricoh, irrespective of who owns us.

But how do you know when you've reached the bottom, to coin a well used
Phrase on here someone keeps "moving the goalposts"

Smacks of bullshit to me.
His phrase "needs some goodwill from sisu" doesn't sit well with me. Has he been watching this saga.
Not got the means or knowledge for me

But we're talking about a new consortium aren't we.

Yeah, but the first barrier is SISU, then Wasps. I don't think a deal can be swung unless a new consortium can reach an agreement with both of those parties.

If I was an ex-Premiership England international why the fook would I go through a financial non-entity like Jas Jaspel (whatever) to express my interest in buying a football club!
Don't get your hopes up guys-the only reason this no mark is doing this is for bullshit publicity just like Jo Dhinsa!
I remember that episode-those from GMK will well remember how many he duped (and even met F2f) spouting his crap!
Plus It's another no-story from the 'always has integrity' Cov Telegraph!
My god how easy is it to see straight through it-just reading the reports on this thread about his financial affairs took me 2 mins!
Meh!

Didn't Dhinsa buy people breakfast? Or was that somebody else?

I think it's this one Nick, OAKWOOD FINANCIAL ADVISERS LIMITED - Overview (free company information from Companies House), the one you linked to has been liquidated.
With all due respect to Mr Jaspal, we've been here before and there are a few things about this story that make me nervous. We're back into anonymous (but famous) third-party investor territory, and he talks about himself in the third person which always troubles me.
However successfully making his company smaller rather than bigger seems to fit the SISU model for CCFC!
Good luck to the chap, but honestly, I have my doubts.

That means there is a bit more credibility then

Did they ever say they had Joe Cole and Michael Owen round for tea?

That was Dhinsa, few people got a coffee out of Brody as well. More than we've got out of the rest of them!

Maybe he will realise his mistake when he gets the results of his MIR Scan

In fairness you probably wouldn't mind having those two around for tea, if it's Micky Quinn though it's going to cost you a few bob in pies and beer...

I was there! In fairness Brody was a really nice chap to talk to, bit mad but quite good fun. Onye and Paul Clouting (the executive chap who'd been at Derby) were there too. Clouting, if that was his name, was very convincing and professional sounding and clearly had a plan to progress the club. Given all of the shenanigans, I'm not entirely surprised that he went in the end...
I bought my own coffee though; every man has his price and mine is a bit higher than that... if they'd thrown a muffin in too though I might have been tempted.
