This is what gets me, are SISU in on this play and if so why.Still doesn’t explain why a late bid went in. Surely that was noise MA didn’t need?
Also Doug talked about ”trust” with Joy Being an important factor, so is she in on this also? If not, BD has given her ammo to stop the sale?
still lots of questions…
I think Joy knows it's a good deal for her whoever knows about itThis is what gets me, are SISU in on this play and if so why.
If they’re not and it is a plan by Ashley & King to outwit and get shot of them, can you imagine Joys reaction when the penny dropped…….
Tbh if someone as low down as me in the food chain has heard this its likely the main players all know and have agreed whatever the strategy isStill doesn’t explain why a late bid went in. Surely that was noise MA didn’t need?

Maybe the big play is Joy getting back at the council? By retaining 15%, she still gets the satisfaction of owning (a bit of) the CBS when MA buys out King...This is what gets me, are SISU in on this play and if so why.

How would she own a bit of the CBS?Maybe the big play is Joy getting back at the council? By retaining 15%, she still gets the satisfaction of owning (a bit of) the CBS when MA buys out King...
Agree with this. The talk of 25m wound up bondholders even more and put massive pressure on the judge. It could easily have scuppered the whole MA dealStill doesn’t explain why a late bid went in. Surely that was noise MA didn’t need?

If MA buys out DK, then HoF own CCFC and the CBS. SISU will still have 15% of CCFC, so JS can claim she got hold of the ground after all!How would she own a bit of the CBS?

All guesswork for us at present
The kids would think K tel is a grime artistOP sounds like an advert for a K tel album (one for the oldies)
It could explain the last minute deal to buy the clubWell if the plan is to get to the PL the 15% would be worth a lot more than it is now
Then they could cash out
All supposition but it makes business sense
In the meantime as King owns 85% he cam make virtually any decisions he likes
It's all pretty murky but I heard this from someone with connections throughout the football world
They said King is Ashley's front man
Maybe there is an intermediary between them so King can honestly say he doesn't know Ashley?
Machiavellian is the word that springs to mind but we'll know soon enough if what I heard is true
The Bondholders dropped their case the day before on advice from their own lawyersAgree with this. The talk of 25m wound up bondholders even more and put massive pressure on the judge. It could easily have scuppered the whole MA deal
MA wanted DK to make that offer. There was no way DK's offer could be verified in time, but it gave MA the chance to say "if you don't take my deal right now I'm walking away". So he gets it for the price he wants, because the other way is to risky..Still doesn’t explain why a late bid went in. Surely that was noise MA didn’t need?

It is, but seems to be suggesting that King is a Sisu stooge. God knows what to believe .CCC Piggy on twitter is a very interesting account....
Well he's suggesting the press probably have the knowledge but aren't putting it out there .It is, but seems to be suggesting that King is a Sisu stooge. God knows what to believe .
He never really went away, but in his other guise as Michael Byng, he was just a bit preoccupied of late.

Eh?
Surely it’s even riskier with no bid on the table??
There would be a logic in keeping Tim Fisher around mind you...I suppose we may know more if we see anything actually change in the structure
New board, new CEO etc. perhaps given her “knowledge” of ccfc and the fact she “no longer” owns the club Seppala will become MD

Being chairman in one of our most successful periods...What’s he been doing the last five years?
And worst…Being chairman in one of our most successful periods...
Last five years?And worst…
Apologies. The 5 years before that however…Last five years?
He strikes me as more Durian than Dorian these daysAnd as the upturn of the last few years has happened he's started to look more gaunt and dishevelled.
Think there's some weird Dorian Gray type thing going on with him and the club.
Get to te EPL he'll look like ET.
If we're looking at his time at the top, he only became chairman in 2015 so you can have him responsible for relegation to bottom tier, but did take us to Wembley while he was at it. Also gave us the Mowbray season.Apologies. The 5 years before that however…
I had to Google that! But hopefully going to Borneo next year so now suitably genned up on the local culture, every day a school day on SBT!He strikes me as more Durian than Dorian these days
I thought he first came on board in 2012 and signed off on Northampton and the rent strike?If we're looking at his time at the top, he only became chairman in 2015 so you can have him responsible for relegation to bottom tier, but did take us to Wembley while he was at it.
