Slightly off topic but does anyone know what the world record is for the highest number of wanks within one hour? Thanks.

 

[Moff]

I get it's good new but I dunno. This is the time to get that fucking stadium. I don't feel like celebrating yet.

Not even just to see Fisher fuck off?

It’s Poker Dales dad

You sort of beat me to it.

Maybe we've just blown the chance to be owned by a billionaire who also owns the stadium, instead of continuing to rent from said billionaire.

If that billionaire was actually interested in owning us then he could have made and offer in excess of what the rapeseed guy did instead of pissing about.

The stadium should be full now - all the NOPM mob to return ……

I imagine SISU keeping a 15% stake is temporary. Will this guy take the club if they are not successful at getting the stadium? Mike Ashley could up his bid. What are the grounds for being a preferred bidder? is King's bid for the club based on getting the arena?

Are we sure it's nor April fools day tomorrow?

 

[speedie87]

What exactly is an equity bid?

Bid to buy the shares in a company rather than buying the assets out of a company

 

[CCFC54321]

It was tongue in cheek!

Did sisu own 100%. Thought brody had a small interest

if John Dawkins is fronting anything it's most likely to be utter bollocks

 

[Saddlebrains]

May have got the percentage wrong but remember when i told you sisu 100% had an investor to take over the club??



Although im struggling to even believe this myself

 

[Albo]

Only draw back... no beards allowed in the stadium.

We don't know the full story yet so until we do a bit of caution is understandable, having said that.....

It's a step in the right direction which is always worth celebrating.

We all want sisu out of the club and for us to own the arena. we've got one of them now.

It's like saying "I won't celebrate L1 promotion because I want to be in the EPL"

Bid to buy the shares in a company rather than buying the assets out of a company

Interesting, doesn't that assume if they are buying equity in ACL rather than the assets they are buying all the debts?

Maybe rapeseed guy could have put in a bid for the stadium before the billionaire put down a deposit.

 

[Flying Fokker]

This at any other time would have made me very happy, but the timing of this the day before the court rules on the preferred bid reeks of sisu's usual tactics. Nothing is ever straight forward is it.

Unless ACL is being split up? Or Ashley is a decoy so that tomorrow is about liquidation of assets? Cov Council? Never a dull moment nowadays. Like the last 15 years.

"Hard to see how Mr King can be successful at this point"....

Doug King - Duggins

he's done us like kippers

 

[ccfc922]

So, this is 100% that he has 85% regardless of the stadium situation?

 

[Flying Fokker]

Is Robert Jarni in the room?

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Waiting to find out that Doug King's company basically owns a field in Fenny Compton

 

[shepardo01]

What is an "equity bid"??

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Get to fuck m8.

Who the fuck are you c**t I’m no mate of yours

 

[Liquid Gold]

my reading of 'equity bid' is that they are trying to get a portion of the stadium in tandem without someone else. Could still be Ashley.

 

[mark82]

Isn’t Richard Overson based over Stratford way? Wonder if he is involved too.

Think he's Rugby, but wondering if that is why he went quiet on here.

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Or are SISU using Doug Kings bid to force Mike Ashley's hand into making a bid for the club earlier than he would have wanted to.

People speculated that MA might be planning to get the stadium and sit on it, stressing SISUs income and waiting until the club slump to lower price. If another wealthy owner comes in with 8 years left on the lease that plan wouldn't work.

Very interesting times. I recon there is some 4D chess going on

Yeah it feels like this is just a move to force hands and call bluffs. If the stadium does end up in MA's hands will the talks regarding the takeover suddenly 'break down.'

Might as well give up now mate, already contacted Guiness, just need to speak to the family across the road so they can verify it.
