Did Cllr Dan Cowan slip off to Germany for the England match at such a crucial time???

I have much better hair than this bloke. I once featured on the "politician's hair" twitter account.

They'll probably pull another made up one out the hat

"The national league has today decided that any team near the longest pleasure pier in the world must pay a 2 million bond".

….we have notified the club today that the deadline is yesterday…

 

[Cricko]

Any club who at any time has had a manager with the surname Bond must pay a £5million bond

Don't give up your day job Garry.

 

[CllrDanielCowan]

in a similar vein was thinking of taking Dan Dan the Council man out for beers - he's also worked his nuts off

This reminds me of the summer someone called me "Labour Man" and Cllr Matt Dent made up a "Labour Man" song to the tune of "Spiderman"...

We've agreed Heads of Terms (the principles under which we will test a proposal through due diligence).

The club still need to work with COSU on completing the sale but this is a positive step.

Well done and thank you. Amazing result

Status Update- Out but sadly unopened…..

It will be subject to a cabinet report and council but that doesn't need to be done to go through DD. We can line it up for the end to save time.

To comment on @SunSea&Shrimpers' point. Cabinet agendas and papers have to be published well in advance (legal requirement) so the business on the agenda doesn't necessarily reflect what is happening on that day. We had a confidential discussion at the end of Cabinet about SUFC just to reassure you that it is being discussed and worked on daily.

Whatever happens from now on @CllrDanielCowan & we still have a way to go I know, you have made many, many friends on SZ the vast majority of whom you will never meet. But they will be eternally grateful for your huge dedication & deal of creativity to "get SUFCexit done".

Sorting SUFC from the mess the Martin family have made is not really a job for the Leader of SCC but you have gone above & beyond, I believe. As a Maldon resident I can offer to buy you a drink without risking claims of bribery & I truly hope one day that I can have that pleasure. Please don't be a stranger after this "hopefully" all settles down.

That must be a 20 year old malt by now

@CllrDanielCowan One last request. Please don’t ever tell us what team you support (if it’s not Southend of course) Not that it really matters, just don’t tell us.
What an awesome job you and your team have done. On behalf of my Dad, me and my Son thankyou.

Rumour has it even @Napster has threatened to buy @CllrDanielCowan a drink.

This of course will only happen on Naps part after due diligence and negotiations are completed.

 

[CllrDanielCowan]

Fab. Thank you to you and the hard working team.

So this now goes back to DD. Do you have a rough timeline for this - or is that tomorrows work?

DD will take 12+ weeks but that's a less pressing issue now decoupling is on the table

 

[SunSea&Shrimpers]

OMG I got a mention from @CllrDanielCowan!!! EEEEEEK sooo excited.
We’ve got super Danny Cowan, I just don’t think you understand!

 

[borientater]

Well done councillor Cowan , probably the only politician in the country who hasn’t had time to put a bet on the election

Oh it’s not the original one by far- this is the next one and it can’t be opened (or another one) until we are Ronless- that said other alcoholic beverages may, thankfully, be imbibed in copious quantities…

Any ideas what shade of blue the new kit is?

 

[Che's Left Foot]

What stage are we talking here?

 

[hlane17]

Come on... want a reason to crack open an ice cold beer on a Wednesday evening without feeling like an alcoholic

Oh come on @Cricko although we are far enough into the Land of Make Believe today suggesting Nappy would buy a drink is just way too far-fetched even for my tiny mind!!

"Treating" (one of the electoral definitions of bribery) only counts if I'm buying you a drink

Some money will have to be decoupled from napsters wallet....
