Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations (14 Viewers)

[SuperFred]

Can someone change the title and add "rumour" please, reads like a telegraph headline!

I can tell you categorically there has been no offer for CCFC from Hoffman and Elliott to Sisu, let alone a bid accepted. Rumours are false

Gilbert

 

[wingy]

Bit random that someone was about taking snaps?

 

[Liquid Gold]

anyone that posts bullshit rumours for attention shout have a flag on their posts.

Take a break magazine

 

[ccfclinney]

Yeah not true.. Gilbert tweeted saying spoken to Elliott or Hoffman both denied it.
Close thread

 

[pusbccfc]

I'm happy to dream.

 

[chiefdave]

Simon Gilbert says its bullshit...........so it must be!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't believe it at first but now I think there might be something in it!

Could believe that Hoffman and Elliot still had interest but the idea they managed to formulate a bid on Friday in a Costa and have it accepted the next day is stretching it. The 'proof' doesn't give proof of anything other than some mates met for a coffee.

 

[Don't know why I bother]

I believe, I believe. When the tooth fairy leaves me a quid in the morning I'd happily donate that for new players

Another load of crap Tim trying to sell season tickets

How does that work?

Hoffman and Elliot were at Wembley together last weekend and sit in the stand together most very game - so nothing new there

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

If Gilbert has said it's not true that only makes me more inclined to believe it

 

[CCFC54321]

Of course they will deny it. Until a deal is done they will deny it.

I hope....

 

[Nick]

Can somebody post a football friends gif?

 

[covcity4life]

Evo was right about something in past when every1 said he lying wasnt he?

I will keep hoping he's right.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

How does that work?

By him and the queen of debt leaving or the rumour of

How does
Saying Hoffman & Elliot take over help Tim sell Season Tickets, especially late on
a Sunday evening

 

[ccfclinney]

doesn't one of the photos show the w**ps directors?

Correct
Armstrong and Eastwood from wasps.. apprently friends with hoffman. Possibly good if there was a future takeover haha

 

[rupert_bear]

I just reckon when and if any bid to buy ccfc and get it out of the clutches of these parasites who presently own us it will happen quietly and quickly. Could this speculation be true ? I have my doubts think it's just a rumour.

 

[wingy]

Doesn't feel right to me.
Some of the things re where we're playing next year don't suggest she or Fisher are ready to exit yet.

 

[skybluesam66]

it may be true it may be not
1 thing you can be sure of is that if they have signed a confidentiality statement, they wont be spouting off to the local rag - especially one which the selling party have banned from press conferences

If you'd read my following post in reply to Nick I said I didn't think it was Fisher and that I didn't believe the rumour

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Gilbert is about as believable and credible now as this and every other rumour on there internet, if there is something going on Gilbert will be the last one to know and will copy, paste the article after everyone else already knows.

Said he's spoke to Hoffman or Elliott..

It's not happening until Les says it is

Apologies if I missed the post but the post I replied to, on its own, does not add up

Its not even a rumour is it - just someone throwing out a wild statement for their own purposes

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

We will see , I do get a lot of info from very reliable sources , for example I found out beavon and Reilly was joining 24 hours before fans knew , I found out Venus was leaving a week before people started talking .
I wouldn't dismiss this

I would be seriously happy with this. Regardless of whether it ends up being right or wrong, don't see Evo as being a wind up merchant. Fingers crossed!

 

[Suffolk sky blues]

I will pray as iv lost hope I'm broken

 

[gruffskyblue]

To be fair it does look like Armstrong and Eastwood from Wasps.

It was meant to be tongue in cheek. I agree there are probably going to be lots of these over the next few months.

Wasps have now signed THAT long awaited stadium sponsorship deal with a local firm that operates in the automotive sector.

So the proof is just them having coffee?

Probebly in costa's at the Ricoh
Wouldn't they be drinking out of China instead of paper cups?

 

[gruffskyblue]

It's the Mill Bar at the Ricoh. Just next to costa.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Said he's spoke to Hoffman or Elliott..

I don't believe him, he's the sort of ego that would lie to make himself feel important.

Even if he did, it's possible they would lie to him as they don't want it to be splashed all over the CT within the hour. I dunno how these things work but there could be some sort of confidentiality agreement, so telling a journalist would almost certainly break such an agreement if it exists.

Or they are subtle with words, I don't believe it would be those two who actually became the club's owners.
