Does it not sound like an almost done deal? Hoff hasn't revealed his full hand yet, but the investors are there. At no point has the board stated that they are not happy with the "offer". They just want to be sure that the people they are selling too has the cash. For once it would seem they are working in the interests of us and our club instead of their own pockets.
Was suprised that the offer wasn't dismissed out of hand. Its definitely a promising sign that proof of finance is being sort. I bought and a few years later sold a catering business (small scale) but on both occasions the buyers had to prove finance during the process. Still, I get the feeling that their will be many twists and turns before this is done. SISU aren't going to walk away from their investments quietly.
I'm sure due to money laundering regulations not only do you need to prove where the money is coming from but also who it is coming from.
We are months away from a deal lads. People need to get it out of their head that this will go through within the week and Thorn will have X amount of cash to spend before the transfer deadline. It simply isn't going to happen that way.
You must have inside info to know what stage the negotiations are at?
If you didn't know for certain you would say "I personally think we are months away from a deal lads".
Lest not forget that Hoffman has been talking to SISU (we think) for quite some time already.
Correct, which is what stage they are at now. One would think this would be the stage after accepting an offer, such as when buying a house.
When did Hoff first talk to/enquire about buying the club from SISU? I have an idea it was a couple of months ago.
On another point how long did it take SISU to take over the club?
You're not suggesting this could be done earlier than people on here in the know would suggest are you?! HERESY!!
Nope I take anything OSB says as gospel and he han't commented on the time the transaction may take.
But there's others on here who seem to be directly involved in the deal!!
Not really, just using common sense. In all the years of footballing takeovers never has one been completed so quickly.
the recent QPR takeover went through quite quickly
so, picture the scene...
You pay £30 for a pair of trainers...
Wear them a few times and realise that they dont look cool...
Someone offers you 50p for them, but sod it, you paid £30, you might as well use them in the garden
think that clears things up !
