What a depressing thread, I'm really beginning to fear the worst.
Two thoughts about the recent posts. First the consensus seems to be Ron is playing silly buggers. I'm not so sure, maybe the DD has resulted in indemnities or warrantees that Ron simply cannot provide because he's bust?
Second, I can't see administration as a way out if it's only SUFC that enters administration as this would still leave Ron in charge of Roots Hall and the mythical new ground. Who would take on the club and it's dwindling assets in these circumstances?
Hoping against hope.
 
I think you'll find in deals like this involving so much debt that the sale price will be £1.00

It is the level of debt and future rewards that will be the sticking points - not the sale price.
This is what i've always assumed. Kimura's DD all surrounds what could they end up liable for, not can they pay less. That said, it shouldnt take this long to remodel. I am nervous.
 
Russian Roulette !
That court hearing is going to be one not to be missed, i think some TV channel should show it live . Media going to have a field day too .

RM Your honour Kimura accepted a deal ,then tried to change it.
Kimura. Yes your honor a deal was agreed , but after the DD it was found that RM had hidden several debts amounting to a very high number not just in the 100000s ,so yes we have attempted to broker a new deal.
RM Your Honour its my club ,i own it ,a deal is a deal ,
Judge , Bailiff take this Narcissistic mentally deranged man away and have him assessed for incarceration at Runwell Hospital

Sounds like he is refusing to budge with changes due to DD
Does look that way. Guess it comes down to how much kimura want to buy sufc. Ron is right when he says it's in kimura hands whether they take punt on us or not. It could in theory all change when d day arrives on the 12th if kimura are the only option left.
 
Surely if the DD has shown up something that could not be reasonably known at the stage of the agreement, then there needs to be an adjustment to the agreement. Assuming this is the sticking point I would have thought it highly unreasonable to expect the original agreements to still remain in place. If this is Ron’s stance then I can’t see how things move forward
 
All the talk, none of the walk. He is done without selling the club, everyone loses most importantly including RM.
If ron martin cared for the club like he said he did he would walk away now he the reason why the club on its last legs he playing a dangerous game what if kimura walk away the club be in limbo i suggest ron martin accepts their bid and does the decent thing and sell to kimura nobody else will touch this club with a barge pole southend utd name is mud because of 1 man ron martin
