NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) If he was prepared to buy in to Sunderland I'd be pretty surprised if he hasn't got the 7-10 million quid he'd need for a bit of development and investment for ourselves by comparison (Jack Rodwell's wage alone was £3.5m last season). My main question would be exactly how he intends to recoup his investment? Edited July 30, 2019 by NavyBlueArmy1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as has been said, if his money came from private property deals there wouldn't necessarily be an easily traceable internet trail.

bairnsaloud Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Im sure he said the hotel was Maddison Avenue NYC for whoever was wondering. Are you sure it wasn’t on the avenue in Maddiston? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know, but there could be a connection with this lot. https://twitter.com/kobrickcoffee . One of the directors of the Brooklyn Coffee Company used to work for them, before setting up his own cafe selling their coffee.

Not claiming conman status on him at all but still a few things need to cleared up IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggerG Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 2 hours ago, Estragon IS NOT a fud said: Falkirk's just another run-of-the-mill shite town in Scotland, very like Greenock actually. It hasn't "got" anything going for it. A fucking statue of a horse isn't going to entice anyone to come support Falkirk. Aye, very good. I think you may be missing the point somewhat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieBairn Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 When you say no one will pay attention, presumably you mean no one on here can possibly answer on Campbells behalf, nor should anyone attempt to?Yeah poor word choice from me but that’s what I mean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s face it the MSG will not sell their shares unless they get paid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
