Who knows what hoffman knows as he’s in Qatar with his son but as he’s not yet officially confirmed not sure how he can resign from a post he’s not in it yet?

That doesn’t say it was before the court case and about buying the club. Can’t find it now but I’m sure originally King said he hadn’t spoken to them then a day or so after the court case said he had and had assurances.

Madness to think he has no clue about this all.
Guess he didn't all of the other times he has been around when trying to fuck the club over too or when Haskell was being paraded as the new CCFC owner because CCFC were being put into admin.

what? The court case was when ashley took over. Sisu knew full well ashley would get ownership. Why they decided to put a spanner in the works night before is anyone guess but it’s proving to look silly and as an intent of playing games as they always tend to do

you've just confirmed what shmmeee posted there. that says talks prior to completion not prior to the court date

are you really that naive? As it goes, don’t answer that

the court date is the day they took over ownership.
And, so what if it was?

Frankly I don't give a shit when they spoke, the fact remains we had an agreement in place and, despite your claims earlier today, Frasers are refusing to honour those terms. This is exactly what some of us were worried about when Ashley got involved but kept being told we needed tin foil hats and had no clue what we were on about
its a very weird stance to take to blame SISU for Frasers moving the goalposts and disadvantaging the club, are we really supposed to believe that this has only happened because Ashley has got upset that SISU made a bid for the ground? If you truly believe that you need to look a bit closer to home if you want to find someone is naive
"spanner in the works" - it added about 20 minutes to the court hearing ffs and changed nothing
When all said and done, what we know is this: Hoffman is a c**t, Ashley is a c**t, Duggins is a c**t. The end.
Just ask yourself posturing to what end?
Weird PR?

lol - are you for real? You like changing the goal posts to suit. You really are naive, in fact gullible that you believe sisu all the time.
if you took the time to look further, you’ll see Fraser group have confirmed the new contract Mirrors the previous one as I said.
you keep believing sisu and find no blame

Well he shouldn't take up the post then.
We're on the verge of restarting our season with 3 big home games coming up and this happens.
Not surehow anyone calling themselves a city supporter can be a party to it or involved with the organisation responsible

if you don’t see why sisu made a big fuss the night before the court case then you need to open your eyes. Sisu trying to play another game as they always do and it always impacts the club in a negative way. Some fans will never wake up to the fact sisu are clowns who have no interest in CCFC

the existing deal ran until 2031, the offer from Frasers only runs for a few months. Personally I don't see that as the same thing
you've got this strange stance that anyone that doesn't fully back the action taken by Frasers / Ashley believes 100% in everything SISU do. its entirely possible to think SISU are fucking idiots but not want Ashley in any way involved with the club
It was possibly no more than a gesture so they could turn to the fans and say "look, we tried". It's kind of irrelevant anyway, because it didn't get off the ground and didn't impact on MA at all. It cannot possibly be used as an excuse to act so aggressively.

why would ashley offer the new contract to 2031 without going through it all? They’ve offered us a short term contact similar to the one we are currently in. Sisu should sign the contract then play hardball after. At least keep us going at the cbs for the foreseeable. Instead they haven’t and playing silly games again.

Without going through all of what?
Surely they would have known full well the agreement with CCFC because they had access to it all exclusively before they bought the arena?
This whole "the club should do as Ashley says" is nonsense.

is he a slow reader? are you suggesting he's managed to deal with all the details to agree to a lease lasting centuries but can't cope with the details of a license with less than a decade to run

Not expressing a view on Hoffman either way, but again in my post from a few weeks ago I confirmed he would be involved, via a source who has been right on most things involving this farce.
Hoffman has absolutely been involved since the start.

Let's hope this one turns out better than his previous attempts.

So far so good - plain sailing and another great day to be a City fan.

Its hardly a revelation - he has been hanging around for years. William Storey as some kind of credible buyer is another shining example of his business acumen
As someone once said to me years ago - his career in the banking world has always been a mystery

They sold the club. Ashley didn't bid.

He won’t be the only one, he is the front of a consortium of local and obviously well heeled business men who have been looking to take over and get shut of Sepalla for a few years.

If there really was an exclusivity deal it seems Storey fucked the whole thing by stopping any takeover in time to buy the stadium.
Grendel

Well if we sold the club and King is in charge is he issuing these statements? I highly doubt it
shmmeee

King isn’t in charge. Any takeover is pending EFL approval.

Looking at this 2-3 weeks is normal, so I’d say we should hear something by the end of the week if it’s actually happening.
How long could prospective Derby County buyer Chris Kirchner's EFL owners' and directors' test take?
Derby County could have a new owner on the horizon, with American businessman Chris Kirchner becoming the front runner to take over at Pride Park.

Ah sorry misunderstood. I’m willing to give it until after the Reading game before being worried the takeover is off.
