YankeeToon Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Even if a bid IS imminent (and not wanting to impugn the reputation of the fine Icelandic press corps, let's assume it is) what makes anyone think Ashley's going to sell? Didn't we already get a quick bid from some Chinese group earlier this month that he turned down? Patience, and let's just see what happens, eh?

Tsunami Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 These stories don't go away. You have to hope they aren't true. MA has never really laid his cards on the table & even when he has paid of 30M of debt it is now seen as ulterior motive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzieMandias Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 I don't see what the £30 million could have to do with it, in that surely wouldn't put more than £30 million on the price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 On 17 August 2005, he was charged by a court in Reykjavík with 40 counts of breaking the Icelandic penal code, Accounting Act, Annual Accounts Act and Companies Act. Most of them are related to transactions between him and Baugur. The Supreme court sent most of the charges back to the Reykjavik district court in the fall of 2005 on the base of technicalities. In February 2007, the case was still underway. Great! A sort of Icelandic Thaksin! Errrrrrr not quite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
