Dale Evans - sounds serious, but....... *surprised he has revealed that he has won enough - from poker - to satisfy what SISU want to sell it'That suggests that SISU have told him what they want for it (that bit seems odd, when he hasn't yet met Tim Fisher. Won 10 million dollars (and since had another win). On radio - can somebody give him Gary Hoffman's number to go 50/50 with him . Hope to god it would work - but sounds like he hasn't sorted out the stadium bit. Sounds genuine, but talking before he has everything sorted. Sounds naive, but I wish him well.

That's nowhere near enough though to run the club.

Now he is looking for Hoffman.
That was the first win. Seems to be talking sense which makes a change. Sounds like he has the money to buy the club and SISU are happy with the figures but nobody from ACL will speak about CCFC staying there so he wasn't a meeting with Sharp.

Then past that it seems he wants Hoffman and his backers to come in with the money to move the club forward once he has taken over and sorted the stadium.

If, and its a huge if, what he's saying is true it sounds promising.

Perhaps he's a bit naïve. Want's it all tied up by Christmas. Doesn't trust SISU. This sounds all very easy. However, I suppose the main stumbling block is Money. If he throws enough at SISU at the start, perhaps that'll do. After that who knows.

Not buying it (that's me with him, not him not buying it).

He sounds sincere in his beliefs, but it sounds totally undoable without more backing from elsewhere.

Love this to be true.
The thing is football is so crazy these days and owners are a bunch of crooks, chancers or loons, a guy who has acquired his money gambling might be a good bet (see what I did there) :smuggrin:

Sounds promising. He has money.

He was probably quite well off initially...you don’t gamble a million dollars if you don’t have a lot more than that to begin with.

Also remember we are almost running at self sufficient at the moment.

Call me gullible, but I believed he meant it and didn't take it as a wind up. He sounds naive (or maybe it's me that is!). Still think I would have kept my powder dry with regards to the media - not sure what he gains from that (Gary Hoffman's number aside!)

He sounded the real deal. A million dollars you don’t gamble unless your loaded initially.

He has another 20 million.

I do believe he is sincere.

But I have always said if I won the Euromilions I would buy the club. Being sincere and wanting something to happen does mean you have the will, means and longevity to make it happen.

The interesting bit for me was him saying he has a team of people behind him, which includes a top lawyer who can speed up deals.

If only it was as for real. I’m crossing fingers and toes but I’m not holding my breath.

If you have £20m there are people who can get Gary Hoffman's number for you. It's laughable he's gone on the radio and asked for it, he's having a laugh clearly. I smell the distinct aroma of bullshit.

I can tell you 100% that this isn't legitimate. I cannot believe Clive and his researchers have been duped into this.
