Part of me would rather we were liquidated so that Green gets f**k all.

If he put 650k of his own money into the club to try and keep it going, why would you want him to lose it all?

Read a snippet on Sunday Times and he was £50m in late noughties, £42m the year after. And Courier has £56m in 2011.

Not that it isn't to be sniffed at btw.

Someone linked an article about Sawrij in this thread last night. I think it was from 2011 and it cited the company's annual turnover back then at roughly £50m. If it's only grown since then I don't see why a value of £400m is unrealistic.

Because people have got this idea into their head he is been greedy now having heard the rumour he took the season ticket money and provident money out before the admin which are both unfounded rumours.

Why cause this unholy mess then? And why block a bid if he has any good intentions at all?

Looks like another ideal Bulls owner http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/n ... _licences/ Also aren't you concerned that your "perfect for waste management" real estate will be owned by someone in the waste management business, who only came forward at the last minute. When he sensed a business opportunity.

Not only do we steal their fans we steal their business men too.

Did he cause it? Or did our p*ss poor performances and 5th place finish in 2016 cause it? In either case I'm fairly certain this wasn't his original intention.
Until we have some official statements from the administrators, we don't know who or why a bid is being blocked. Maybe it's hmrc and not Green who is blocking it? Or perhaps the bidder is taking the mickey and offering them next to nothing?

I want us to survive more than anything but how long does this take.

Ross, suggest if nothing tomorrow no more talking. I would guess that means we are done

Re: Administration 3 - now in technicolour : Thu Dec 29, 2016 7:07 pm  

At the end of the day if Green gets his money back we may be well on the way to only getting 6 point deduction

The impending wage bill will presumably play a large part in that!
