Guest ToonBart Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Has sillious mentioned how todays news fits in with yesterdays. Does Ashley now have two bids? Why have the press ran with Moats bid but not sillious clients bid? Are his clients frantically upping their bid.? Come SS....Let us know the score.

Guest Redheugh Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 That's good timing. I can't vouch for the veracity of the Moat bid. All I know is there is a meeting planned between BM and the GS party, and it will go ahead. There has been no pressure on the US group to up their bid at all. That offer was accepted over a week ago and funds were lodged with lawyers. Due process looked at 7 days when i said last week. I dont think any party is keen to talk to the press, who will write what they like anyway. I don't think Barry is as near as you all think, thereagain the two sides are dealing with a "maverick" owner. Again, i await ridicule. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think GS would like to speak to BM? Do you know if the GS group also failed to meet Ashleys asking price of 100 mill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have thought that the fact BM has offered less than GS would be newsworthy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I wonder why Caulkin/Bird/the Mail/the Chronicle have all got wind Moat's formal bid yet there's been nothing about this other one that's supposedly in. Seems strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows whats going on behind the scenes I realise that, it's just that as ToonBart pointed out this lot have hardly been shy about making claims to the press previously.

Pilko Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Exactly, this is just as much about good publicity for SP as it is for giving a balanced view. Not saying they're actively lying to the papers though, that's Llambias' job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
