Doug King Takeover (9 Viewers)

[Grendel]

Of course she is she’s a presenter on a local afternoon show that deals with lost dogs and does a quiz. Seems like everybody expects her to be Jeremy Paxman ffs

Ive mer her - she’s nice and does a job none of the critics on here can do

So what do we reckon the Ashley/King convo is going to go like?
king: Mike fancy 25m for the stadium?

Ashley: Doug - how much for 85% of CCFC

King: £x

Ashley - I’ll give you half

King: Done!

She won't be that soon...

She is nice with everybody

She will

 

[Deleted member 5849]

She will

Only if she gets the national gig.

Actually they are keeping her show

 

[JAM See]

Sadly Trish is a poor interviewer, especially as regards football.
You could tell she knew little of the background info when chatting with Pete.

She's a lovely person, but her kids were a right pain in the arse at school (not saying junior or senior. I may compromise one of their teachers)

They are?

I'm still at 8:55 catching up this thread but seems like it was all a load of bullshit. King SUPER looks like Glen Gregory from Heaven 17:

Would we not just be better with Ashley, IF he is interested? Where the hell do we go from now? Do King's "no sales" promises still apply? And he reallly loves Joy, doesn't he?

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

They are?

Sorry thought they were keeping her

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Sorry thought they were keeping her

Still a chance they could move her elsewhere I guess. Not so long ago she was the breakfast slot, after all.

Asked if there’s a possibility that he might offer Ashley a quick return on his investment, Mr King said: “As people will see I have spent my life trading and building businesses so I am all for any discussions with the new owner if he’s willing to get some of the money that he’s put in to keep the building operating, and allowing us to play our couple of games there, and just wants some of that back with a little bit extra, then we’d be more than willing to entertain that, of course.”

That doesn't sound like a dogmatic desire to own the whole stadium complex to me. Leaves room for some kind of mutually beneficial deal, although Ashley may be more of a 100% or nothing guy.

 

[Otis]

Boris would have got the stadium deal ‘done’

But also would have said let the Boddy's pile high.

We need a groan emoji!

Again it’s another statement from King fully aware Ashley won’t do a deal with him. Saying the right things to appease.

I'm gonna make you an offer, that cannot be ignored!

 

[Briles]

The way I see it now, sisu have three options.
1. Sell to Mike Ashley
2. Use the Doug king money to make a massive bid for promotion, then sell a premier League club.
3. Assets strip, sell anyone they can get a £ for and offer what's left to the highest bidder.


Guess which one I think the vindictive hedge fund will go for ?

Sisu have a 15% say In dealings..

 

[Briles]

King only ever been a sisu puppet. He won't put any of his money into city, there's only really the choice of paying rent to MA or selling everything before ditching the club.

From what I've seen, he puts other people's money into stuff. If that's the case I'm a fking millionaire.

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

Why doesn't Ashley simply sell his 17 million purchase to King for 25 million and walk away.
8 million for not much work.

 

[jordan210]

How the hell did a surveyor/agent value the arena in 2021 for 52 million and today it sells for 17. At the market value according to the judge

Surely someone needs to be investigated for this

 

[itsabuzzard]

Well there you go Doug… you’ve now got £25m to spend in January instead of the stadium so don’t come to January and not say you’ve not got any money to spend

“and my statement is; we have the cash, £25million”

Suppose if it's losing money and needs repairs it's not worth much?

 

[Rusty Trombone]

It was a missed opportunity by all concerned but it’s not over yet of course

In what sense do you mean it's not over yet?

 

[jordan210]

I would say it was vastly over valued for some reason. Maybe a bit like when wasps accounts had been falsified

 

[mark82]

They could make an offer to MA. Not sure it will happen though.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

he used drink round Wyken. Last I knew he lived gayer street near to wok u like

Not to far away then to get there on his mobility scooter

Appease whom and to what end?

One could be valuing potential income, the other actual income? Commercial leases valued on income, profit basis.

Was that just structurally or as a business?

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

She is nice with everybody

What even Grendel?

I’d just like to place on record my thanks and appreciation to Timmy fisher for all his hard work and support over the last 10 years steering CCFC.

 

[Flying Fokker]

In case anyone is interested the Yelo Enterprises Ltd financials can be found here

YELO ENTERPRISES LTD filing history - Find and update company information - GOV.UK (company-information.service.gov.uk)

Interesting to see his service address changed today. Now Stratford on Avon

he sold some of his control over to his bro. Presumably to fund the purchase of CCFC?

Michael Coleman also involved at some point.

 

[pusbccfc]

8 million for not much work.

Because when you're worth a supposed £3bn, £8m isn't worth a weeks work.

Poor Tim.

Never paid by the club and just got abuse.
