Sell Vik, Hamer, O'Hare and Sheaf to fund the purchase of a lifetimes worth of hookers and coke. Anyone who says different is lying.

That's just dam right ridiculous,

It would be 3 months at best....PUSB

£500 quid a day should support a decent habit, 35million quid gives you 70000 days worth, might need a day off once a week, but i reckon it's adequate! ;)

Not sure but I am wondering how close he and Joy are, he did resign their partnership two or three years ago and seems to have re-emerged again.

does the guy actually have any money? he seems to live the life but his energy drink doesn't seem to actually exist

reading a few articles he comes off as a con man and it wouldn't be surprising if he was talking other people into paying for everything but then you wonder how he keeps getting away with it

Just listened to the Gilbert piece on CWR.

Looks like King has been a bit liberal with “couple of weeks” statement. Could be problematic if emails show he cut into the exclusivity period.

Also, it looks at first glance like the reason SISU sat on their hands WRT stadium until the last minute was because they had Mills (sir Ken?) in the background and were hoping to get things moving some time before.

Gilbert said £30m plus millions more on promotion to premier league.

I won’t comment on that bit.

The exclusivity period and Storey might have halted MA talking to SISU.

Something like that, yes.

Let’s see if there’s a simple answer from the legal team of Sisu to dismiss this and carry on. But if there is a problem then the King deal isn’t completing anytime soon and the Jan transfer window goes well… out of the window.

Ultimately if Storey does have a case and wins that, Sisu still won’t sell to him anyway, as they missed the exclusivity deadline to complete any deal. No winners in this now.

There’s an interview with Storey at 11am.

King isn’t picking up his phone to discuss this.

Sisu won’t say anything because of NDAs.

Convenient

What was said?
Storey, backed by Steve (Goodman / Dudman- hard to hear) and Mills had agreed heads of terms with SISU.

Exclusively deal until about 10 days before King deal. King on record has said “negotiating for a couple of weeks”

Storey lodging complaint with EFL to try to stop King deal.

I think that’s the overview.

11.00 Gilbert is interviewing Storey.

A few of us were bemused why SISU had gone quiet. Makes some sense if they were bound by NDAs etc.

More potential legal battles and a missed opportunity to get the stadium.

Life as a CCFC fan is never boring.
