Eviction notice (20 Viewers)

[Nick]

The club for whatever reason decided to go public with the eviction notice, why?

Probably because it was in the media so had to.

The question then is who told Gilbert.

They said in their statement that they would have preferred to deal with this privately so I have to assume it was leaked.

Doug king is taking over fuck all.
Discussing the intricacies of his deal with sisu is like discussing which is the best wardrobe to go through to get to Narnia. It's a fucking fantasy.

Christ! Next thing you'll be saying Santa isn't real.

Boddy will run the day he called Hyam in to his office to scrutinise those spreadsheets

I'd be amazed if Doug King is the prime mover in this
As I said in earlier threads when I asked someone who hears everything that's going on in the football world who DK was he said 'Mike Ashley's front man'
If he isn't MA's man he's likely to be performing that role for someone else
We'll know soon enough as things seem to be moving fast now
Ashley seems to hold all the cards

Didn't someone early on in the thread find out that Doug King and SISU share the same registered offices?

They don't.

He had a virtual address at the same place as SISU.

King being Ashley's front man, then going to court to try and stall and stop Ashley's bid to buy the CBS would be an interesting move, for sure.

It doesn't make sense
But then lots of other things in this don't

I asked Doug King to look after it and he put it in an envelope with the documents relating to his city bid and he's misplaced it. I'm sure it will turn up soon.

But that *really* doesn't make sense. Not just on a ha ha ha who would do such a thing, but actually on a you'd have to be in need of sectioning type level.

A good conspiracy at least needs a plausible 'out'!

Still think mine is best in that the eviction now gives SISU and King an out for the takeover not happening. Perfect reason for the EFL not to sanction it.

I thought it was SImon Gilbert who did, and club were first to respond after that?

the club did say they had hoped to sort it in private but the press ran with it so they had to comment

 

[fernandopartridge]

Why would FG leak them issuing an eviction notice. I know the club appeared to respond to a story Simon Gilbert had got from somewhere but I highly highly doubt it was from FG.

Why?

Just because SISU are the evil empire doesn't mean that everybody else are good guys

 

[Nick]

Somebody also told Gilbert that Hoffman was going to be on the CBS Arena board....

I know it doesn't but it still doesn't make much sense for them to do it.

How does it benefit Frasers to leak it?

I said earlier sisu are proposing to be a 15% partner to King but have refused to sign a mirrored deal to use/play at the CBS got to make the EFL think a bit.

Leaks come from anywhere and can be an important tool in negotiations.

Puts more pressure on CCFC and SISU to resolve it quickly which would probably mean a better outcome for FG

Doesn't mean its come from the top, it could be someone who works at the stadium who is passing info on to Gilbert

I have seen situations wherein, when a change of ownership is intended, the old owners (SISU in this case) are precluded from making new agreements (e.g staff pay, staff numbers, supply contracts) before the change has been effected. Continuation of the previous licence would be fine, signing a new one could be problematic if such an agreement was in place.

I doubt hundreds of employees being told to clear out their desks and hand their badge in requires a deepthroat character to get to the local press.

Not sure there are hundreds of employees there, are there?

 

[SkyblueDad]

Dave Boddy and a two or three ticket ladies I reckon

 

[Nick]

Most of the staff are at Ryton.

Ah fair point. I was thinking ACL but it’ll just be CCFC. Even so, word will get around fairly easily.

@Earlsdon_Skyblue1 can probably make a few suggestions after the babestation documentary he watched yesterday.

what is gateman jim up to now?

 

[tisza]

The Oxford lease runs until 2026 then they need to find a new home. They are currently scoping a site just outside of Kidlington for an 18,000 stadium. Lots of local opposition as you might expect. Kassam wants to re-develop the current site and get rid of the 3 sides.

Think their council is happy to help them try and move. Didn't kassam sell the club but keep the stadium? Was always suspected he wanted to level the ground and redevelop the site
