That’s a pretty debatable proposition given the results in the UK and US recently. Just as a matter of interest, thinking back to MC and how quickly the holes in his proposal were located, and knowing that Rawlin’s proposal seems to have had no holes found, no wonder it’s bloody depressing to likely see this whole proposal shitcanned. Shadwell’s right, this does smell a bit, the no answers before the deadline...but who is pushing what narrative and which timeline from the club side. With a club insider reportedly involved in torpedoing this bid, how was the voting deadline arrived at? -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you don’t put X s in the box you give Gary Deans free reign to vote as needed on your behalf.That’s what I did anyway.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LatapyBairn. Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) So hypothetically let’s say the worst case pans out and the resolution doesn’t pass. What happens next?......Could we call an EGM and try to force the issue again perhaps with a few tweaks to the resolution or does Rawlins just take his money elsewhere and we remain with the status quo and same stagnant, disinterested leadership rotting away in the seaside leagues for ever more, could we turn into to an Airdrie or a Clyde? It’s a depressing thought! Edited October 19, 2020 by LatapyBairn. Mid type 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestfieldBairn Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) I really can’t understand why people would not want this to pass. Not just for the Rawlins money, but Phil’s knowledge as well would be crucial. He’s got clear pedigree with Stoke and in America. Utterly baffling if you vote against this and then claim “to want the best for the club”. Edited October 19, 2020 by CC52 FFC 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this gets derailed then i take it the opportunity for Gowsers indian backers to get their feet even more involved in the club. You really couldnt make it up go all out to woo a f**king idiot like MC announce him as preferred bidder last year and just when you think we have turned a corner and get someone with someone with a proven track record in football and business and arse it up Edited October 19, 2020 by AL-FFC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) I know we all received another letter regarding the vote etc but I'm still not sure that the majority of folk will understand what is actually going on here. There has been no mention by the bod of people wanting to vote against it or again rival bids. If I'm a shareholder who doesn't use social media then I doubt I'd see an urgency in voting as I probably wouldn't think that anyone would be thinking of blocking it.

AL-FFC Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 So in the grand scheme of things those voting against Rawlins investment are basically endorsing the past few years of mismanagement and okaying lex and co's stewardship and the f**k ups they have presided over 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this, a lot of minor shareholders will presume the 6 in the MSG will vote together as is the norm however knowing that two of them plus Paul Healy are planning to vote against the resolution changes everything. For it to pass votes from smaller shareholders are needed. I feel the club should have been canvassing and informing all shareholders over the past couple of weeks so they knew they’re vote mattered if they wanted this change and Rawlins investment. We did get a letter from GD encouraging us to vote for the resolutions but the full back story was not explained, I think of it had been far more shareholders would have made the effort to vote in favour.

Long Suffering Bairn Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) If the Rawlings plan on the table was a takeover I could understand some people having worries. But it's not. They are throwing money at the club for a less than controlling share in the club with the long term plan of increasing the value of their investment as the team get more successful. There are NO downsides. The detractors must be relatives of Alan Gow. Speaking of Gow, get him out of the club. It seems to me he is only there for what he can get for himself.

Dawson Park Boy Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Very confused by much of this. The Annual Report states that the directors recommend the Resolutions which would include Lex? Additionally, why are we employing Gow if he is part of this new takeover? All very weird! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with a brain would understand that, unfortunately it’s questionable whether people actually use theirs.
