Wow what a ****ing soap opera. Whoever is there fair play, getting him to talk and answer questions. Seems to be being done in a civil manner too.
 
From all of the comments I've read, including the email (whether it's genuine or not), I don't think anybody has offered him anything close to his asking price.

We sorta go round in circles because if the only constraint was the WUO then the bank accounts were unfrozen in early June.

If every time the club wants to make a payment to a “ creditor “ it meant going to the court to release funds then almost certainly the club won’t be able to even play its first game.

Things like printing the match day program will almost certainly require COD similarly anyone providing food , drink etc will need paying and if the courts haven’t sanctioned payments then forget next Saturday

I think there is far more going on here than we are being told ( I know that’s obvious) but more to do with some ham fisted attempt to try and outwit creditor and in particular HMRC.

RM is paying off N Power from his own resources without, it seems reference to creditors or indeed gaining the court’s permission so, if what we hear is right in that “he paid £250k to football creditors “ did he really need to go to court to gain authority?

He needed the court's permission to pay football creditors ahead of HMRC. He doesn't need permission to pay each creditor.

I don't know what the situation is with day-to-day expenditure though.
 
Apologies I am not there to ask him myself, but can someone ask him how he feels the embargo is going to affect the club? If he is out still of course.
I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if he says he doesn’t care
 
No idea if the email is genuine. Wouldn’t surprise me either way. There is so much made up, so many alternative facts, that a natural consequence is one day something that is true comes along and nobody believes it..

More widely it’s deeply frustrating that the only party controlling the agenda and making statements is Ron- other parties sit in the background and have obviously (no doubt for good reason ) decided to remain silent and out of sight.

So he makes statements like Kimura haven’t got the money (translate: didn’t offer enough), and there are no bids on the table, and no other party challenges that, and hence the comments hang formally unchallenged..

We can rightly criticise what he says, but he is the only one talking, is there actually an offer currently on the table? I have absolutely no idea.

At some point there will need be transparency as the current situation is increasingly untenable (to state the blindingly obvious). Can’t wait until this nightmare is over (in a positive way only of course)…

That’s because deep inside they all want Ron to succeed and have a love for him that stirs in their loins as he speaks.

Ron’s stubborn as well. All he needs to do is grant official ITK status to those present and they will all go home happy as Larry.
 
Ron from what I have seen in the past few weeks during the protests Is you are becoming more and more deluded. For any buyer who won't buy because of the protests Really is not worth having them as new owners OH dear more lies from the natter chairman .He really should be locked up for his own good in a padded cell

I see someone looking seriously ill , maybe down to the Protests and Stress , as its stands no-one going to buy the club and Ron Martin needs to see a Doctor ( shrink )

I feel the Shrimpers Trust can try to fund raise, then maybe us Supporters can buy the club ?
