That's the bit I don't get. Get the friends a bit to a degree, but family? Surely your family would know the potential damage of playing along.The problem is, all his family and friends were backing him on Facebook a few weeks back.
I reckon my cat would pass that.would he pass the "fit and proper person" test.
The one thing that hasn't been picked up on, I'm assuming because everyone is (rightly) thinking the whole thing is absolutely ludicrous & is created in his own head, but this guy would have to pass a 'fit & proper persons test'. And whilst we know that this test is far from bullet-proof as many clubs can attest to, there is absolutely no way Dale Evans would pass such a test.

He's already got really upset and agitated a couple of times over what he sees as abuse.
When you say 'family,' how close a family member are we talking?
Like what?Maybe they know something we don't believe.
But he could become POTUS.
Or produce a picture of him standing outside a white house.Not unless he was born in the US.
Saying that, I'm sure he could get an email knocked up from that other stable genius, confirming that he was born in the White House or something...

Like the rest of the posters on here I believe the whole thing is ridiculous and only exists in Evans head
However, assuming it is true, I wonder what the Football League would say and would he pass the "fit and proper person" test.
Surely before he could even put in a credible offer and let alone buy the club he would have to approach the EFL for approval to purchase the EFL golden share
so in addition to buying the club for £20m, paying the professional fees etc he is going to provide major funding this January for transfers, plus covering the working capital required, in addition to all the assets and property he has been providing for his family (a pot of £25m + ? or double his first statement of wealth)........... all on his own no consortium............. :banghead:. Anyone paying that sort of money out for CCFC is completely off their trolley.
If he does turn out by some small chance to be for real then how does he convince others to get involved - because he would need to. Who would be prepared to give him funds knowing that they would have no real say in anything. Why tie all your money in to getting rid of SISU, who deserve no reward for their actions, to leave the club short of funds going forward. The investment to challenge at the top of L1 or in the Championship will be significant. Its mad, I can only see it ending badly
Not to mention he needs to negotiate somewhere for the club to play - Wasps will not be shy in asking top dollar from him, BPA needs the funding too
In all honesty I feel the club is in safer hands financially with the current set up, as much as I distrust that. Just my opinion
Didn't they refuse it to that Italian bloke at Leicester (or was it Leeds)?Is there an example of the FL refusing the golden share to any new club owner on the basis that such owner didn't pass the "fit and proper person" test?
Yes, Massimo Cellino but the refusal decision was overturned on appeal and he went on to run them like a shit-show for a few years.Didn't they refuse it to that Italian bloke at Leicester (or was it Leeds)?
Anyone remember the Kurt Drago fiasco? As Mr Evans appears to like a bet, is it possible he’s part of that betting group and is having us all on to get some publicity? Seems similar, that’s my theory anyway or he’s just completely insane
In all seriousness, I'm amazed they haven't said anything. Doesn't even have to be nasty or negative, just as much as he was welcomed into the consortium, informing people that Dale Evans is no longer part of the consortium, and leave it at that.My theory is that the Hoffman consortium has kicked him in to touch

Now?
