But there is no evidence of anyone 'holding up' the takeover.
The lies told about the directors last time were proved to be lies.

So forgive me for not believing this one.

From the companies house document it confirms 4 people have Owner Shares , John Allot , Michael Carter, Roger Lambert ( no longer a director according to Companies House ) and John Minards.
I presume that Owner Shares come with voting rights. Then there is listed the people who recently very generously purchased Member Shares, I presume these shares do not have voting rights. At the bottom of the list of people who own member shares is shows Frank Carter who with amazing generosity purchased 300,000 member shares, top man. It does not indicate when these were purchased, it is again a presumption that they were purchased at roughly the same time as the several other people bought mainly 500 or 1000 member shares each. Not including Frank Carter the total Member shares sold was 49,500.
So trying to get to grips with all the informed gossip it would seem that to take control of the club a potential buyer would need the 4 people who have the Owner shares to agree to sell them, it can of course be at a nominal figure as I presume that they have no value, especially as Sports Clubs tend to have considerable debt. So unless there is something in the constitution that says that if a majority of Owner shares vote to sell then a sale goes through. I suppose it could be anyone of the Owner Shareholders who believes its not a good idea to sell to any particular buyer.


The owner shareholders have all said they are happy to transfer ownership, pending the due diligence process.

What?
They are in negotiations with the person who wants to buy.
And he said in the press they all agree to sell/transfer.

Who would be sending a letter? And why the need to challenge it?

Even the post on RW&B has been locked, and thar hardly ever happens, so that should show how believable it is.

We must really be doing well for people to work so hard to put the club down.

The director shares and new stand rights were wrong, why should we believe this.

The reason I am asking is that I can name one person on that list who has never been asked if he agrees and accepts the takeover. However if he was asked I am sure he would not mind. So it's not an entirely true statement is it.

Also those people are only member share holders, they have no legal influence and it matters not what they agree or disagree with. So it just sames a strange thing for Minards to comment on.

Anyhow, let's hope it all goes through. We need a fresh start and right now have a board who may have the clubs interest at heart but do not have the resources to push the club to the next level. Roll on Matt Ellis.

When you say, people on the list, you mean the owners?

Yes. Because it was said they were holding things up because they wanted rent for the stand and were wanting their loans paid.
Both of which have been proved to be false.

And 'just letting the deal go through' is what got us Pearman.

Why not just let the people who know what they are doing on both sides, with lawyers and accountants, sort it out.
