Hounded on the 1000 post thread to answer questions accusing him of being a publicity seeker and even saying he is as bad a Sisu.
And from who the usual we support the club better then you crew.
And before you ask no I will not trawl thou those threads for quotes just go back and read them for yourself..
Should all be ashamed of yourselves , even if Michael is fucked over he did it in good faith.
Shame because you lot will be pleased just so that you can goad and take the piss...
This gets more farcical by the minute. You are dealing way out of your comfort zone. A phone call? Well that says it all.
I'm sorry to piss on your parade but I've said all I can say on this previously.
let the grown ups get on with it and the chips fall where they may...
Cheers, LAST. With the combination of England and this will we meet/won't meet mini saga my early morning optimism has disappeared. Have repeatedly said we'd be delighted to meet to discuss and offered dates etc but just being knocked back with 'telephone call only'. It's actually a really sad indictment of the situation. I can't think of another situation in my entire life when I wouldn't be more than happy to discuss things over the phone but there are several people involved in this and previous 'confusion' 'misunderstanding' 'quoted out of context' etc has left people feeling once bitten twice shy so to speak. I'm calling it a day. If sisu want to meet to discuss they know how to contact me. If they want to respond to the offer by email that would be fine too. But the stakes are just too high for this to descend into who said what etc etc etc in a phone call
Michael the other week I conducted a deal for my company for £419,000 purely over the phone. I never met the individual and the individual never saw the product. If you have a phone phobia I don't. I'm bloody good at negotiation.
PM me details of backers what's involved and I will set up a call. We will have it as a conference call and you can just listen in. This cannot be dismissed as you want pick up a phone.

So ML calls for parties to talk promising no more spin and its ok,, but someone who care's more than doing it to get paid is shot down for trying. Are some jealous because someone is getting stuff done and they are not involved!!!.. Me i would prefer Micheal or anyone to fail trying then failing to try,, i would suggest most let this process run and decide once parties have finished talking before pointing fingers,, surely we are all fed up with looking for blame and want closure...Stop crying stop wasting energy and support any possibility of a return home....

Is that the new technical version of Monopoly?In my day you used to just do deals over the board.
Come on the products you sell really sell them selves don't they? nothing to do with negotiation. easy to sell when you have a quality world brand...
Must admit though you really are good at bullshit!! so would probably pull this off.
In this instance no they were "forgotten stock" - love phone deals I get a buzz from it. Its only an initial exploration as to if the deal is a possibility - it only should be telecommunication now anyway.

I don't agree with most you say and don't give a fuck who gets headlines, i'm sick to death of everyone second guessing. The one thing we would agree on is we have to play at home and any chance is positive and should outweigh who made what call, who said this or posted that... We together need our club back in Coventry, anything else means nothing, because another season in NTFC could mean the death of the club as we know it...And all parties know this...
Well I scrapped off £52,000 worth of screws today, 219 of them to be precise.
Reminds me of my Maths GCSE question 'what is the probability of a good screw?'
As I said before, if I was Michael I wouldn't bother if some of the tiresome fans on this board are the norm.
However they are not and this board is dominated by posters full of their own importance. Grendel with his £400k deal and offer to take over is probably one of the highlights of it. Taken me a few minutes before I cleared the tears from my eyes to post this.
Michael please continue with the process, go with you gut feeling and ignore these people, the majority of fans need you to continue. Make the call.
Who said the club won't meet Michael?
you slate grendel yet he is also saying 'make the call'.
As for people being full of their own importance, is it not you that comes on here every five minutes to declare the cessation of your support, because sisu might see it and bring the club home?
Fuck me how can you say that read some of your own posts.
Christ this is getting silly.
I met TF briefly a week or so ago, and he said he was prepared to meet again, face-to-face, to talk about the football side of things. And that's me, one fan, deeply cynical, and with not a penny to bring to the table. I had a lot of respect for that.
And now we get ML refusing to meet face-to-face to discuss something of potentially far greater importance, and there are people here trying to defend that?
All this bullshit about negotiating multi-million deals on the phone is presumably aimed at trying to make Michael look small.
Asking to meet to discuss this properly and formally, is a perfectly reasonable request. Given how ML has been bending over backwards to meet small groups of fans or even individuals, but is now refusing to do this, is remarkable. That the blame for this failing is somehow pushed in the other direction, even more so.
I spoke to the club earlier and they have tried to call michael all day. He won't pick up apparently.
Also Hoffman is the man behind the bid
Hmm I have heard the same about them meeting all fans, something sounds fishy about it? They have recently seemed very happy to meet fans, even joy.
Have they said they refuse to meet or just they want a quick chat first?
Anybody guess the headlines tomorrow?
Brilliant criticize Michael for wnting a face to face meeting and not a phone call,but leave ML alone for wanting a phone call and not a face to face meeting. But then again who the hell does Michael think he is,we all know this is all his fault dont we? In the spirit of RFC HEEEEELLLLLPPPPPPP

When you spoke to them, did they say they'd meet Michael?
Since you're obviously in a position of knowledge and have the club's ear, would you be prepared to broker the arrangement?
Forgive me, it sounds like you might be engaged in a little cheap sniping here, but perhaps I've misunderstood.
