Talking live now!

Apparently they are talking to many many parties!

They have had 4 meetings since March and that there has been no offer or proposal.

They had the meeting in Burton on Trent.

They have had an offer of £1 and Ken said what can £1 buy you?

They are no further forward than they were in March.

KD says that the people who were not the money men.

He mentioned Ken Bruce was at the meeting.

They are in starts of talks with a number of companies....

They are looking for people to buy players.....

They are looking at a few players...

He just said that he wouldn't like to confirm or deny as you don't do that when it comes to negotiations, but he is denying everything about GH?

He is doing his best to get another couple of players....

Just denied there are any big issues at CCFC...

We aren't heading for Administration....

He keeps talking about getting more money from SISU and it is the same as getting it from any other bank?

Personally didn't think much to the interview, especially when he said that he won't discuss negotiations about players because discussing negotiations is the worst thing you can do even though he had just been talking about GH!

What a load of spin.

He said a lot whilst saying nothing, and comes accross as disinterested and rude.

He didnt actually say that no investors were at the meeting, but that actually he didnt think the principle investor was there. This is completely different to the club statement and just shows what a master of spin and deceit he is. Frankly he is a liar.

The man is a joke, and to have someone who has not one jot of passion for the club as chairman shows how sh*t things are.

His line that they are talking to many many investors is as believable as they are seeing the council by the end of the week. He conveniently changed that later in the interview by saying that they had preliminary talks with one or two people, to cover his back as he realised his original statement was a load of bull.

This man is a joke, and frankly a cheat and a liar. A full blown joke like SISU.

Have to agree, his stories didn't quite match up. It started off with being a fair few potential investors and by the end it was a couple....

What I don't get is the "It costs us hundreds of thousands of pounds to run the club, so what is £1"?

I think Ken Bates bought Chelsea for £1.

They are offering £1 as they will be buying loads of debt as well...

I think our esteemed chairman would be well served to recall what SISU actually paid for many of the shares; after arm-wrestling many people into parting with shares - many of which had been held in families for generations - for nothing.

It's also evident he wholly flaunted the agreement with Hoffman to keep the nature of discussions private by slapping it directly on the club's website, like an excitable teenager publicising his first wet-dream fumble to all his mates; and as for broadcasting the name of one of the attendees, well that's staggeringly unprofessional.

Came across for me as a chancer who struggles to hold the context of the true word.....

You are correct sir.

Someone else more recently bought a club for a similarly nominal fee also under the same circumstance of taking over debt, can't remember who it was.

I'll put in a tenner for part-ownership, all I ask is for one of those cushioned seats. A CLEAN one, mind you.

Think there is more power coming out of my daughter's Barbie wind-up music box to be honest.

Think at the mo they could just about power up a 4w light bulb at GMK.

The situation is an absolute joke. We have a Chairman who has never seen us play and probably could not find his way to The Ricoh if he landed at Bagington and a board containing not one fan. Sisu clearly don't want to be here and yet when presented with a way out reject it. It might worth pointing out to them that £1 is exactly the same as they paid for the club. In doing so they hoped to fluke a promotion and get out with a quick profit. That was a gamble and as withn all gambles sometimes you win and sometimes you don't.

Orange Ken has no right to be chairman of our beloved CCFC.

Calling Ken chairman is a disgrace.

Stupid stupid man.
