has anyone thought, the club goes into admin, Mr martin makes an offer to the admin for some little donation. He writes of his debts he then get the club to himself , So what happens to us mugs that brought shares in the club. as far as i know the money we invested in the clubs goes down with the old SUFC. so has Mr Martin not only ripped the club off, has he also ripped the heart out of the club by cheating the people that tried to help by investing in shares? the more I think about what Martin has done to SUFC. the worst it feels i belive its time he showed his true colours and tell us what he has really done. Or what would be better is if he sold the whole thing to someone that has the money to build a ground and a team.
what do you think
 
I got shares for myself and Dad (Xmas present) only £500 worth but there you go.

NEVER once expected to make any money from them and that wasnt the reason I got them. I brought into the idea of us owning a bit of our club. Whilst I didnt expect to make any money I didnt expect my investment to be worthless within two years and I can see no evidence of what Ron did with the funds.

The jury is out on Ron for me. I am pretty disheartened by the current situation and I hope Ron can repay some of the faith I have always had in him up until now.
 
The fact that I have an email from a club representative 6 months after the event openly inviting further share purchases indicated financial difficulties to me...

My share certificate has pride of place on my desk at home.. i only got the minimum amount but i am confidently looking forward to the preferential choice of seats at the new ground in a couple of years.. thats why i bought mine.
 
Sadly I bought 2,000 shares, you do the maths at £6 each, never thought id lose the whole lot in 18mths
 
I only bought 120 quids worth and knew fully well that there would never be a return on these. Nonetheless, I never expected Martin to take us down the road to administration and although it was not a vast amount of money, I feel he has totally ripped me off.
 
I think the shares are still worth exactly what they were the day after the share issue i.e., approx 0. However they still (at the moment) give you the warm feeling that you own some of the club - so nothing has changed.
