SUFC: The Future SUFC up for sale

[BedfordShrimper]

All the superlatives being mentioned about Steve Nash are completely deserved. This guy is a true true legend in the basketball world and the sports world in general. A very business savvy man with plenty of contacts, and a nice guy to boot.

I really really really hope this can happen. Lets hope that Ron doesn't scare him off by acting like the tw*t we know he is

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Is this just hyped up gossip or is there actual proof that Nash is interested?

As has been said before, you're not going to get solid proof until a deal is struck. (If Indeed It happens). The one small concern about Nash is, does he have his fingers in too many pies? I doubt that It would be the kind of 'hands on' ownership that Wrexham have. Is that important???

 

[Shrimper]

Only problem with Steve Nash is if Levy was up to selling Spurs he'd be in like a shot. Like Smiffy says he ticks all the boxes. We can dream.

Except buying Spurs would cost over £2bn. He doesn't have that money. Doubt his friends would part with that either, even if Levy was interested in selling. Which he isn't

@BoyWonder2 and @Lincoln Shrimp seem to be the two that are ITK. Im confident that the Nash rumours are more than that and this defo has legs. But as previously mentioned its unlikely we will hear anything official until a deal is struck or its appropriate to do so

Who ever buys the club it is vital that Kevin and Co stay .

Indeed. Imagine what could be achieved with a proper budget?

 

[londonblue]

Yes it was embarrassing wasn’t it. The BBC’s latest love interest appears to be Wrexham. And calling it a fairy story! It’s amazing what investing millions into a non league club will do. I think the fair play rules are different in the EFL so they may find it harder next season.

It was even on the BBC national news.

I said this months ago on another thread. I don't have a problem with Wrexham but I do have a problem with the media coverage.

I’ve never mentioned Nash, either to confirm or deny anything.

Won’t be getting any names from me, as has been said on many occasions.

 

[Medway Blue]

It's still only 2nd/3rd hand info but I've heard enough to be convinced that it's more than just rumour.

Like I said though, I don't think it's any further at the moment than a hat thrown into the ring with other hats.

 

[Shrimper]

If Nash buys the club will Crosby and Stills be involved?

 

[Tommy's Mooney]

I need to stop watching Steve Nash videos and pretending everything is definitely going to be great

 

[Maroon Blue]

If Nash buys the club will Crosby and Stills be involved?

It will be the nWo (New World Order) of wrestling fame.

Nash, Hall (RIP) & Hogan.

[TJC]

Anyone else got the "Johnny Ekstrom is signing - dead cert" feeling on this one?
Then end up getting an unknown center forward from Crystal Palace?

Few weeks of Steve Nash speculation, then we get the owner of a local skip company stumping up to buy us

Mind you, the first one turned out rather well

​

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

All I would like is an owner that can pay staff and players on time. Is that too much to ask for? Probably

 

[E for B and Billy Best]

Nash ticks all the boxes for me. I would be delighted if he proved to be in the running...


He's a sportsman and has competed and been honoured at the highest level

Loves football (soccer). Spurs fan, but we can let that one slide

Has a share in a couple of football clubs already (Vancouver - MLS & Mallorca - La Liga)

Has significant personal wealth

Has a contact book to die for including industry leaders, celebs, billionaires etc

Has donated many millions $ to good causes and has his own children's charity. In fact just last weekend he arranged a 20 team charity shield football tournament in NYC

A very astute businessman, with interests in a number of useful areas including venture capital, media and fitness

Not met the man obviously, but comes across on videos and things I've read as a genuine, down to earth, nice guy. Likeable which is important after what we've been through


There's a nice piece here on him, which gives an idea of the guy he is. Pretty damn impressive -

Which is all very well, but will it pass RM's warped DD process.

I know your comment's tongue in cheek, but the checks and balances would surely be done by the agents responsible for the sale?

Surely joking Nash er? Where’s Dennis the Menace?

Speculation is futile. 100 pages of it just around the corner

No, it's not. Unfortunately we have been so downtrodden for years, that we believe this is the norm. It is not.

The staff, fans and club deserve this at the very least.

Someone with care, vision, business acumen and a decent bank balance could fulfill the huge potential this club has given time. Basically the polar opposite to what we have currently.

Heaven forbid people get excited about the most optimistic story about the club in years eh?

Not a story though is it - pure conjecture. I'd be amazed if somebody of this calibre is interested in investing in the square root of **** all...
