Dawson Park Boy Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 8 hours ago, Duncan Freemason said: I am actually less and less convinced that the MSG came anywhere close to selling the club to the fake American real estate/coffee magnate. I think he was an excellently timed stalking horse who was perfect for what the MSG wanted, and that was to kill the patrons bid for control of the club. Initially, I don’t think they believed that the patrons and pledges would get anywhere near the sum required, and when they did come up with the cash, coffee boy was the perfect excuse to say “sorry, there’s a better offer” rather than simply reject the patrons offer with no reason for doing so. Coffee boy gave them their reason. Interesting scenario? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 18 hours ago, MSG GTF! said: The only way this club moves forward in my eyes is when Ritchie and Alexander f**k off. They’ve held a noose around our Club’s neck for far too long yet despite the state we’re in, their arrogance still won’t allow them to loosen their grip. It’s their baw and they’ll decide who plays with it. Don’t underestimate the influence that certain individuals, some who post regularly on this forum, had with regards to getting the Rawlins deal over the line. Without their lobbying to the smaller shareholders in the build up to the EGM, the deal would not have gone through. Not convinced the fans will be allowed any sort of major involvement in the future of the Club, certainly not while the two p***ks I previously mentioned are still around. As for Holt, I’m all for giving him a chance. I’ve stated already on this forum that I think he could be a very good appointment...if he’s allowed to get on with his job. My gripe is that he shouldn’t be wasting his time trying to teach our two managers how to do their job. I realise that superfan and Ritchie are still sniffing about in the background. We just have to hope that Rawlins takes up his full 45 percent or whatever it is and realises pretty quickly that some of the folk involved in.the club need emptied asap. A clean sweep from top to bottom is really what the club needs but we may have to see this in stages unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believe The Hype Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I thought only the South Stand was his? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately MR & SA will become less influential but dont forget without SAs personal investment with building the two stands, we’d probably be still sitting with a stadium that could double up as a race track, and yes he’s getting paid back , but who wouldn’t. He only owns the one stand and I think many fans would give to the club for free if they were in a wealthy millionaire position like Standy Alexander. If fans were allowed into games at present, we wouldn't even need 3 stands in league 1. The North stand which the club do own would sit empty most home games.

Bairnardo Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Sandy Alexander can f**k off with his superfan shtick. He's one of the MSG and all that entails. No more than that. You can argue that hes done some good, like you could for most of them probably, but the benevolent fan act isnt one I'm buying. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An example of this is us employing a DOF on whatever he is on while players and staff are on furlough getting 80% of their salary. It is morally wrong and financial madness IMO Players and staff are still getting 100% 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Please, please stop with the endless unrelenting incessant absolute pish about who own what bit of the stadium. Nobody gives a f**k. So long as there's a team, a pitch and a place to watch, I couldn't care less if it was owned by Pol Pot and the Munchkins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
