SUFC: The Future SUFC up for sale

[Flinty]

You might want to read my post again. Jack gave himself away on several occasions by using info he was fed specifically to drop himself in it. This is not a guess. Wolfy is Jack Martin.

This is just bonkers ! What a family !

 

[Cultist of Sooty]

Today and tomorrow likewise

"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."


You know, a typical week for Southend fans.

I think it was to put pressure on Kimura. They themselves early on thought it was Jack.

Was he threatened with legal action for breaking NDA do you think ? Is that why the account got deleted pronto ?

 

[Strykr]

Last week or so someone asked who Woolfy was and I said it Ron’s son. Guess what, I got boo hooed.
Feeling a little smug now lol

 

[TUMBO]

Pathetic really that I am wishing my life away to know the outcome of Wednesday morning.

No matter the result, I can never forgive Ron for what he has put the club, the staff and myself through

Hopefully the Martin family have more than met their match with Kimura and will have to stop playing games and agree to the deal.

 

[Westcliff DGS]

This one you mean?

If thats the case better before Wednesday lunchtime if the NL expulsion rumour is true.

 

[Liam AAS]

So Ron's son took to Twitter to try and scupper a deal that would make his dad (and probably him) very rich? Weirdo

It wasn't to scupper but to manipulate. There are no other credible bidders (we would have been able to identify them by now) but Wolfy's MO was to make everybody think there was wider interest and drive up the price/affect the negotiations.

Which could mean Kimura walk away now, or they can trust (as we all know) the Martins very little. The Caymans thing could also mean the Martins trust Kimura very little now. I cant see a positive in this either way for the club.

As i just said if the NL expulsion things is correct then we have till what Lunchtime on Wednesday to resolve the issue and get the deal done?

Pathetic, amateur hour. Much like most of rms tenure.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could finally be rid of them forever.

The behaviour we're seeing in the last week or so is typical of people like RM and JM when they know they're fighting a losing battle.

They can't materially change reality, as they don't really have any leverage to change the deal that's on the table. They either take the deal and everyone moves on, or they become local villains.

So instead they resort to manipulation, putting things out in public and breaching the NDA they have to 'strictly adhere' to. Trying to pressure Kimura from afar because they don't have the stones nor the evidence to do it across the table. Trying to drum up distress among fans to further increase the pressure, while also laying blame on the purchasing party in case things go south.

If they were in a good position that suited them in this deal, would they seriously be resorting to these tactics?

 

[Che's Left Foot]

Given everything on the Internet is permanent, I'd love to see affected parties use the web / twitter archive sites to source all Wolfy's tweets and take appropriate legal action.

Surely Ron is going to have to fold at the last minute and I love how much that is going to hurt him inside.

Any sane person would.

And therin lies the problem...

I would hope he does, i guess more likely if only one bidder (especially if it is true they have put a Wednesday morning deadline in place) if there are two bidders he could well hold out

 

[EastStandBlue]

Some incredible Succession vibes to this story now. Was Jack sat down and told he was not a serious person last night?

 

[hlane17]

Well either he takes his money or he gets nothing. He's surely going to take the former option... right?

You know who we're talking about here, yes?

Oh I do, but I'm thinking his tendency for self-preservation might lead him to the correct option for the club.

 

[Booma]

Or they’ve given him enough rope to hang himself with
