Doug King Takeover (31 Viewers)

[SkyblueDad]

the more this guy speaks the worse it gets. Hoffman being involved should be a red flag, involved with SISU, then the poker chap and now this. Not to mention being pushed out of the PL after 18 months.

Out of interest why would Garry Hoffman be a red flag ?

Been taken in by 2 chancers… that’s worrying

Storey is Boosh's best account to date

 

[better days]

One judge certainly was not impressed. This is taken from a court judgement in may 2019 so is public record........ para 33

"He had a tendency to make impressive statements, which on further investigation or consideration were not quite what they seemed."

or para 35

"For those reasons, I do not accept either Mr Storey or Mr Kelly as credible or reliable witnesses and I treat all of their evidence with a high degree of caution"

Brilliant as usual OSB
I loved this bit from the judge.
For example, when Mr Wyand in cross-examination tried to understand his evidence about the sales figures of Rich Energy drinks, and put to him that he had been quoted in the press in February 2019 as saying that the First Defendant had produced 90 million cans, Mr Storey explained that it had produced 90 million cans, but had not yet filled and sold them. He said he would have to check the figures, but in 2018 he thought the First Defendant had filled and sold “circa 3 million cans” of Rich Energy drink.
And it goes on
A conman, liar and fantasist

The Mark Hateley bit has made me laugh quite a lot

Now where and who have we heard a judge make comments like that about someone before? Starting to sound like two people are made for each other.

 

[CBS16]

Mark Hateley as director of football with tens of millions to spend in his first window we'd be completely fucked if this strange man gets his hands on the club

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Who are they ?

Dale Evans and by the looks of it this bloke

 

[Telfer85]

“I’m not in it for the money” was a particular highlight of mine….I’m sure all these people are just giving you millions and millions of pounds for nothing and don’t want any of it back.

A conman, liar and fantasist

Sounds a great fit for our club, tbh

 

[clint van damme]

Sounds ideal for our club, tbh

PSB group andSkybluehub saying give the fella a chance, feel reassured now

Dale Evans and by the looks of it this bloke

Well Dale Evans didn’t happen never took a lot of notice of it and it looks like it never really got off the ground and has he said he’s involved with this Storey chap.

 

[Telfer85]

Haha I was half expecting him to say “I’ve also got Richard Keys in as head of equality and diversity at the club”

You can't cut ties with someone you're not involved with

That’s a plus isn’t it once the truth is found about him.

The clowns on this forum, and I include myself in that, had him sussed from the word go.

Literally as soon as he started speaking on CWR.

I mean normally people who claim they've become fabulously rich over night after a large win in Vegas are genuine but there was just something about this one......

 

[SkyblueDad]

To be honest I never really heard any of it but it seemed to be soon kicked into touch.

Sorry to be off topic, anyone else’s forum not updating to the latest comments on each thread?

Mine is stuck at 3 days ago so have to manually search for the thread I want to see, rather than the last thread commented on appearing at the top.

Liam Kelly running the physio department

 

[chiefdave]

That’s a plus isn’t it once the truth is found about him.

the problem is everyone on here had pulled his story about within minutes of his first appearance yet Hoffman kept him around for way too long.

Gary Hoffman has confirmed that Nuneaton poker player Dale Evans has joined his Coventry City takeover consortium and insists he is "serious".

The former CCFC vice chairman has told the Telegraph he has seen proof that Mr Evans has substantial wealth and has welcomed him to the consortium.

of course he was also involved with Ranson, PHIV and if memory serves was one of the people suggesting the academy be shut down to save the club money.

Weird! The thread is 3 days ahead for me. I have a message though. Future me is telling Past You not to bother going down the pub for the England USA game!

 

[baldy]

Has anybody said the ‘likely Storey’ pun yet? I claim dibs on it if not

 

[David O'Day]

Storey hasn't got a chance, he's just wasting someone else's money in court

 

[Kieranp96]

Listening to storey he sounds like he talks utter shit ,
9m worth of sponsors and prearranged 10s of millions of £ worth of players for January

 

[shmmeee]

He said that about players lined up at Sunderland too but then says he wants the manager to manage. So in what way does he have players lined up?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

This takeover could become a Never Ending Storey…
