SUFC: The Future The Takeover - Very very close.

Our hopes and visions for the rebirth of Southend United, plus any plans published by the consortium for discussion

If Justin is going to be at the AGM tonight maybehe cant say to much .But it would be helpful to the fans to say how much longer have we got to go through the pain of the takeover finaly brought toi a close .
Perhaps before the we add players, management team and staff
 
I wouldn’t read too much into a date not being set. As much as we all want to know when this is going to complete, I think Justin and the consortium are very wise in not putting a date out there when things can change so quickly especially when you consider who the owner is! The last time a date was mentioned the whole fan base almost had a melt down when it couldn’t happen.

Will we get good news today or next few days? Maybe, maybe not.

Unfortunately, we would have liked to record tonight but we were requested not to and we would rather have the opportunity for some supporters to see it than none at all.
 
This takeover biz.seems to have been going on for rather a long time.Anyone got a song which sums up their feelings about it? Personally I'd go for REM's Losing my religon.


But I'd imagine the more opttimistis amongst us would opt for Hot Chocolate's I Believe in Miracles. :Winking:

 
Corr that has proper depressed me was hoping Friday
Appreciate your update but what a **** way for us to start the day. Yet again this is going to continue to drag on. It gets more depressing every single week now.

After JRs comments last week or the week before it is harder to take as it sounded like there wasn’t much more to do at that point with DD being completed and issues with the rat sorted too.

Any idea what the hold up is?
Not sure if there’s any particular hold up or whether it’s just taking a while to wrap up.

As @jphfitz says, I think they’ve been cautious to set a date after missing the last one.

I’m sure Justin will face questions around this tonight, so we may know more later today.
 
Somuch hope yet agin it seems a bridge to far .Ron must be laughing at everyone He is doing every thing he can to stop the club moving on .I like a lot of fans are feeling disapointed that the club is still in the hands of the martin clan .

Personally much prefer Jackson sisters 1973 and the Pasadenas brillant 1992 remake ‘. I believe in miracles’ ( rather than ‘ you sexy thing’ )
 
I just wish the takeover would bloody happen once and for all

I was away traveling the world in March when the news first broke the club was up for sale
I am now looking forward to going back on my travels and still no news - seems my holidays come round quicker than this sale

All that money spent on holidays, and to think you could have spent £1 and bought a football club. 😁 😁
 
I'd turn your attention to Christmas and New Year with your friends and family if I were you

Early January would be my prediction if I were picking a horse to back

Home to Altrincham would be my guess
Ideal for Kev really. Let him struggle through the busy Xmas and New Year period with limited players and then get things sorted when the fixtures die down a bit.
 
Unless everyone attending has to sign a NDA the information will get out so it might as well be recorded so the everyone knows what was actually said and not peoples interpretation.
I think it's so the consortium hold a degree of flexibility around any information they give us, rather than being held to every word when they don't even own SUFC yet.

If there is any notable information disclosed tonight the wider fanbase will know about it, no doubt someone attending will post on here or on Twitter.

Asif! :Whistling:
 
From the little I have heard and can mention, it's the same as before the consortium announcement. Many Hoops and hurdles to go through. Some surprises. Lawyers involved. Making sure nothing comes back to bite the consortium from the tangled web the Martins have created. The deal still happening.
We have come this far, just be patient, it will be worth it.
