manorpark Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 If they are seriously interested (and have enough backing/money) WHERE have they been all summer? First thing I thought. f*** 'em, Moat in. First thing that came to my kind as well. Stump up the cash quickly or f*** off basically. The whole thing (welcome, if it was real) sounds very contrived, to me. Don't believe it. Llambiarse was publicising the deal with the Graham Roberts fans bid last week which turned out to be a storm in a tea cup. I hope this is different obviously, but it all seems a bit late to be going through due diligence at this stage. If they are making a bid, DD is done i think. What's the betting that if a deal with 'someone' is done, it will be signed the day the Transfer Window closes. Ashley, as determined as ever to f**k us as much as he can . . .

"Geoff is dealing with Keith Harris and we are still waiting for proof of funds." Wasnt proof of funds necessary before access to the data room was granted? And as far as I understood that data room was quite important regarding due diligence? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Redheugh can I ask you, do you know if this will go through? I work for a legal firm and all I can say is there are funds in a client account for the purchase of a football club. I dont want to lose my job If you were you wouldnt even say that much tbh.
