How’s the getting Southend fans with big money on board going .. or the research .. would love an update. Cheers.
Click to expand...

the research is going on - check in with the trust on that ...

one issue is one share one vote at 250 each - or if someone puts in 25k do they get 2500 votes ...

and articles of association etc.

somebody told me if the organisation was properly set up investors could get interest on their investment

I think we should open up the company structure as much as possible so even people in Japan could buy a share - and if Tom Brady ha a spare 10 m he could put in ..

and getting the appropriate structure for this particular circumstance etc ..

I think there are various models available -

Difficult and complex sort of stuff - and although it is something I want I feel like in
a massive minority and most fans would rather not ..

I think the poll is part of that process of assessing is anyone really interested or not ??

Really could have spent that 40 k on legals and consultants to move this forward - hey ho

Tom Brady? Japan?

"A reliable source tells me" - 1 Shot
"Ron knows he has to sell" - Can of Fosters
"His family are pressuring him" - Pint of Tennents Super
"There was a meeting..." - 1 x Roots Hall Burger (Rustlers burgers fine to use as an equivalent, if you drop it on the floor first)
"Do A Lopata" - Pint of Tyskie
"Fans to buy the club" - Finish your drink
"What does Tom Lawrence Actually do" - Order yourself a dustpan and brush off Amazon
"Kimura Group" - Lose an item of clothing
"The Club should release a statement" - Glass of Wine
"It's close" - Bottle of Wine
"Where's Anna Firth in all of this?" - Literally smash your phone/ workplace computer to bits. Game over.

Only real ITK is sadly Ron, he holds the Aces and sadly the snippets we hear from so called ITK could change if and when he moves the goal posts (as he often does).

I see this stuff about Ron moving the goalposts a lot on here.

I know there was an opportunity punted around (the whole FF-based deal) that Kimura apparently though they'd got a deal on. Due diligance is supposed to be the reason that fell apart.

Then, presumably because he wasn't getting anybody biting for the FF-based opportunity, Ron came out with the famous £1 for the club £2.5million for the Roots Hall site, so much for the training ground, so much for outstanding debts etc. offer.

Since then there have been loads of statements about him moving the goalposts, but no detail on what this actually means.

I'm no Ron fan, but he gets dog's abuse for doing this while nobody has told us the facts of what he is actually doing, and how they know (because I haven't seen anything in the public domain).

I appreciate that there might be something solid about this on the 1070-odd pages of this thread, but if somebody can point out the facts that'd be really appreciated.

Yes… it could be that the ticket price RM put up was an ‘offers in excess of’ offer which he’s now auctioning round and every time he gets a deal put forward he tells other interested parties the latest offer and it looks like he ‘moves the goalposts’. Maybe.
