SUFC: The Future SUFC up for sale

[Shrimpergonzo]

Are they going to pay what Ron wants though? Otherwise pointless

I think therein lies the problem - for the transaction to take place it needs a willing buyer AND a willing seller. If the price doesn’t match Ron’s valuation (or other terms) then he’s not going to be willing to sell to them.

That seems to be the impasse we’re in at the moment and perhaps why another group (the Aussies?) are now in pole position.

And I thought it was the Harry Kane transfer that was holding up the sale

I’m going to make a point! And it’s the final point I make! Laurie and a consortium are ready to buy the club! End of!

Are they meeting the price ron wants?

No one will!

 

[meerkat54]

No one will!

What a surprise

 

[CRATE]

Imagine when you buy a house! How many times do you offer under asking price! NO ONE is offering asking price! And why would you? Because RON asks?

 

[CRATE]

What a surprise

Would you offer more than something is worth?

I’m totally a novice when it comes to law so forgive my naivety

If Martin can’t, or more likely won’t, clear the debt by the date set is there any way in law the judge can:

1) get the club valued at a sensible figure.
2) then put a Compulsory purchase in place for that amount if it can be determined Laurence et al have the funds to pay the monies & run the club.

Effectively & hopefully prying the club from Martins grasping claws into the hands of those who have our best future interest at heart.

Martin can’t keep kicking the can up the road like this & dragging the club & fans through purgatory. It needs to fncking well stop now!

This is no different to football clubs putting a price on a player. Usually they end up going for less.

The fact he's not engaging with potential buyers that are making themselves known would suggest he has a better offer he's already looking at though would it not? I'm not saying it's a better offer for the club

Depends how much you want it / what it's it's worth to you

 

[meerkat54]

Definitely not. But it’s unreasonable Ron the buyers are dealing with.

That's a poor example as a lot of houses the last few years have gone for more than the asking price due to demand.

That said, I see where you are coming from.

Do you honestly think SUFC is worth 6-8M?

 

[bazzashrimper]

It seems to me that the Aussies (or whoever is in front) has offered more than the consortium. I could be wrong, but it would make sense. That said - Ron should still negotiate with all parties.

 

[CRATE]

Any more news your side then Crate or is it still as it was on Wednesday ?

Nothing has changed, except Laurie and his “partners” are ready when Ron goes “I’m ****ed”

This is the last post I make on this! As the abuse simply ain’t worth it!

No one, FACT! Has offered anything

Most of us would be prepared to pay more than that if we a) had to and b) had the cash… but that might be looking through deep rose tinted, heavily misty specs.

Mate, if I had the money, I would pay double or treble what it is worth! But fact is, how many people do you know with 10-15M? Over to you!

Keep it going please Crate. The vast majority appreciate the feedback. We're lucky to have someone with your dedication seeking out the latest.
