I wasn't for a second suggesting it was a conspiracy on your part....where do I say this? I was however, pointing out that your writing style and your views are very similar to the formerly prolific poster, Godiva....the implication being that you are one and the same. If that's an incorrect assumption to make then I apologise unreservedly-although interestingly you chose not to comment on my assumption.
It wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility that a poster who has repeatedly supported everything that SISU have done and told us consistently that it is all part of a very shrewd business plan and it's the rest of us that aren't 'getting it' has realised that maybe they aren't doing such a wonderful job after all. After making statements praising their every act, supporting Leonard Brody's text vote idea, his plan to make us pay for signings, suggesting we play the same formation, tactics and style 'till the end of time', said poster loses credibility and reinvents himself with a different user name. This time with more 'toned down' support of SISU but still very much anti-Hoffman or anyone that wants to take the club over rather than merely invest....Believe it or not some people find it a lot easier to do that rather than just admit they were wrong.
As I said if I'm wrong I apologise and I would agree with much of your post regarding caution. And if am wrong my comment about the writing style is still a compliment as Godiva has always come across as a very articulate, intelligent and interesting poster....just completely blinkered in his views of what SISU have done to our beloved club!
I am flattered you think I am thon-in-my-side, but it is really unfair to him. We are definately not one poster using two signatures.
Another thing you have completely wrong is me being pro sisu. I am not and I have said this so many times but have resigned to the fact that not many believe me.
I joined in March and my second post was actually about the looming administration and Ransons dismissal. In there I explained my view on Ranson and how I thought he failed. I also said I didn't think we would be put into administration as it would make no sense from the owners point of view.

Much of what I have been writing have been with my personal experience with running businesses with private investors in the boardroom. As virtually nobody on here seemed to have this experience and nobody really understood how they think and how they do their part, all kind of conspiracy therories emerged ... and still do.
In the shadows of events I could see Ranson, Hoffman and Elliott having a score to settle and I have a few times tried to ask if we really are happy to play their game. To be pawns in their attempt to remove sisu and get back in where they previously failed.
I was against the sisu-out movement from day one ... and I still am. Not because I have any emotional feeling for sisu, but because the disruption and turmoil would eventually get to the team.
In an attempt to at least bring some facts to the table, I invited OSB to become cowriter on the three FAQ's (Board/Finance discussions). Nobody on here thinks OSB is pro sisu, so why would he team up with me if I was/am? We may see things differently, yet we agree on the facts - as clearly displayed in the FAQ's threads - and at least we respect each others views. Had we met in real life, we would easily become instant friends.
Again, I am not pro sisu, but I have resigned to the fact that the runaway train is unstoppable. Sisu's plan to get co-investors seem to have failed as no investors in their right mind would walk into a company in open war with its customers. Hoffman, Elliott and Ranson will probably come back and hopefully they will do a better job than when they were here first (though I remain doubtful).
I wish us all a happy new year!
but know what your saying.
