Dave Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I'll leave it then, because the Beeb is more reliable I guess. It's still only speculation though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dotdotuk Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Still nothing on BBC website and SSN haven't picked up on it. Was I having a nightmare or did anyone else see/hear it??? I heard it which is why I am sitting here in front of the PC now instead of watching the rest of the Top Gear I recorded! Cheers, Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Guessing its £60m upfront with it topped up to £100m So that's us £40m in debt to Ashley before we've even started. I want a bidder who can pay it all off and rebuild, i certainly don't want this cretin back with finances to worry about. no it would be 60 mill of his own plus 40 of a bank Then it would be a £100m offer not £60m.

Shak Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Hope it's true. Was glad to see the back of him and he's far from ideal as chairmen go, but he was/is immeasureably better than that useless cunt Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probs £20m when we go up, and £20m within the next couple of years for when we stay up. Means Ashley gets his cash eventually and gets out now. That kind of deal should be bringing in better people than Shepherd though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 With Shepherd we might go into financial ruin, but at least we'll seem to be getting somewhere. With Ashley we'll be heading to financial ruin and falling down the leagues. While both are cunts, Shepherd is the better cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I hope the £60m is simply Shepherd trying to get a bargain rather than him simply not being able to afford any more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Shepherd knows the ins and outs of the club, it should stop him making too many critical errors like Ashley; long term though he's certainly not the answer. Can't believe i'm looking at a bright side on this news, that's how FUBAR the situation is right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BBC 'understanding' it will be accepted, despite being so far from the £100m suggests to me that Ashley is utterly desperate and nobody is offering more than the £60m.
