If Cyrill is genuine then it makes sense to find out a realistic price from Hoffman. SISU will start out asking for crazy money and knowing the true price could save months of negotiations.
Good luck to you Cyrill, do your best.
Don't sisu realise that the club is worthless?
I can vouch for Cyril. He is genuine in his intentions, cut him some slack.
Does his Billionaire investor realise the same??
No disrespect - but why would a millionaire get you to do the dirty work?
He has lawyers etc that would deal with all of this.
This is not how business is done and I work with a lot of wealthy guys.
I have absolutely no opinion if Cyril is genuine or not and if his boss is interested or not. But for the arguments sake, let's say it's all true.
Sisu would never start revealing any price they would accept. They would start demanding to know who they will be dealing with, and there will be absolutely no progress until they know.
They will say they are not looking to sell, but will consider any reasonable offer.
Hoffman will bring nothing to the table, and his mere presense will obstruct any negotiation.
I'm guessing Cyril is just trying to persuade him.
My mates dad did a lot of work with a certain Sheik. He was telling the guy down one from him about buying a football club. He said I know a great club, it's a City and they play in Sky Blue.
He always jokes how they bought the wrong club.
Now is not the time for this - time for a good deal and most likely best time for SISU to be receptive to any offer is if/when they realise the club isn't going to get promotion back to the Championship - this will leave them with a problem - mounting losses for a League 1 club likely to stay in the same division for a few years - that really is time to cut your losses as they are only going to get larger
It's not Hoffman's presence that will obstruct negotiations, it's Sisu's.

He's my friend of Facebook, though I've never actually met him. Seems a level headed bloke ....maybe apart from the Pompey thing of course.
He's built like a brick shithouse though so I am surprised it was only 100 Pompey fans. I'm sure most of them just simply bounced off him.
Is Cyril in a position where he can even open discussions with Hoffman? I have met Hoff a few times as I work in the city and he is not an easy guy to get hold off. You have to have a serious written proposal and evidence of the people involved.
Hoffman will clearly state why hasn't the billionaire or his legal reps contacted him?
Why?
He's not buying the club off Hoffman?
He wants to speak with him about it.
You have some dodgy Facebook associations Otis.....
Pretty much everything Cyril has said is the truth, he does have the close contact and the people in question could easily afford to buy the whole shebang. I think Cyril is just trying to obtain a line of communication for others to investigate further, once thats done he'll stand back and hope something happens.
Quite, hoffmans done the dirty work and knows exactly what it will take to buy the club

The idea will be for Hoffman to put the proposal to himMy question is why are you doing the dirty work.
You can't just approach Hoffman saying you know someone. Your boss will have to approach him direct. Hoffman won't just go with it. He will want to know a lot more info and how serious he is.
