When will the takeover go through? The Waiting Game...

[lreed567]

Well of this is the case, it really isn't going to help give the national league any confidence

 

[rayleigh dan]

Firm deadline needed now, take it or leave it and be ready to reap the consequences if you don’t accept. They’ll keep can kicking into eternity otherwise, it’s beyond a joke.

If Ron & Jack Martin not careful, there will be an bad ending for both of them.

What the **** are they holding out for?

a Hero

Can someone please explain when the contracts were signed back in December ( i think ) What exactly were they signing I thought that was to agree the sale of the club

They agreed to the purchase of the club subject to two conditions being met.

Those two conditions were

1. The Council entering into an agreement for lease at FF
2. CBRE approving the transaction.

Neither pre-condition (both are outside of Ron’s control) has been met so they aren’t yet the owners.

They are now attempting to find a new deal which doesn’t depend on at least 1 (and possibly 2).

What the **** are they holding out for?

A miracle

The goalposts have been moved again and the can gets kicked down the road

 

[Danshrimper]

What the **** are they holding out for?

A deal that favours them more than the one currently being offered. And until a truly final deadline is set, they will continue to move the goalposts in search of a deal that suits them better.

I agree on this BUT.....havent we been told that COSU are now trying to de-couple the FF part from the club purhcase,? if Ratty and son are awaiting for those conditions to be met, it dosent sound de-coupled to me and we could be waiting months for DD to come thru, Cowen mentioned 10 weeks, we dont have that amount of time left due to the bond requirements of the NL.
Thats the way ive read things i might be wrong but if so please advise me

An apology from the fans, who make him and the family look like pantomime villains, and don’t believe “ He loves this bloody club “

Think it's time to give a deadline and threaten to walk. The idiot Martin's are absolute shysters and want to take, take and take again.

Just let go for once and put the Club first rather than personal gain.
Because Ron, you F'ing love this club......................remember!!

 

[Tommy2holes]

I'm sorry bored and frustrated at this whole process. It's a national league football club.

Anyone would think we are taking about purchasing a small continent.

Whilst other clubs are showing off new signings, and talking about season card and shirt sales, we are wondering if we will even start out first friendly in just 12 days time.

All of this damage by one man.

The system has to change to protect clubs from this exact situation.

Hope they both get crabs

Roger mate I know your only on here to boost CllrDan but this sort of ignorance is the reason why so many are surprised as to why its taking so long.

Best leave on high otherwise some of us my start explaining why CllrDan is not the messiah in this deal.

Please explain
Why is he ignorant?
Who has said Cllr Dan is the messiah

Feel free to educate us all

There will be nothing .. they know

An apology from the fans, who make him and the family look like pantomime villains, and don’t believe “ He loves the leverage and attention that owning this bloody club gives him“

Fixed that for you

 

[sufc4life21]

Time for COSU to set deadline for completion and if that isn't met then they should walk. Yes they lose there investment but its starting to look like wasted investment anyway with the rats keep moving the goalposts! This deal isn't happening and it's about time COSU realise that to. Unfortunately lads you been strung along like the rest of us.

 

[Hampshire Shrimp]

Tell them to shove it, they then walk to the lift, and co chase after them and say ok, deal done

 

[leeblue]

Ron want sizable rent
And not pay 20 million out of profits.
Figure less than half that being banded about.
