yes and what worries me most is the last option. yes we could go bust but i doubt that would happen with BP waiting in the wings to take over. or we just get stuck at square 1 again! not what i and probably many other people want

About time BP got mean with the board its the only way they might realise that the takeover is actually real. No doubt there come out with a statement saying its all lies and they have proof its shares not a loan. Aload of bollocks as normal. Lets just hope power can now get control of the club and take us forward

There is a possible fourth option .... that the mysterious investor (Who I reckon is Chinese BTW :-))( ), is actually in takeover talks. However, perhaps somebody can help me out here. One thing that I am trying to get my head around is the fact that the board now appear to have gone back on them selves & are now saying again that Bills money was for a shareholding. (I'm sure they acknowledged in the winter that it was a loan). Assuming for a nano second that they are right, given the value of the comapny it would need to be a significant shareholding, say 30% of shares.We already know that the Wills did hold about 65-70% of shares. So if they are right where does Bill's share holding come from? ... Logically the wills family. We have a situation that the board are courting an investor. If it were a "Takeover", then he would need to acquire a Majority of shares. So where will they come from ? Conclusion: Either Bills money was & is a loan or this is NOT a takeover, but more money going into the same blackhole at SN1. Unless there is a serious flaw in my arguement, I can't see any other conclusion. (I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong here)

The Board become a non entity with this next stage. It's the Wills family who stand to lose the money. The club going under means £6m of loan notes vanishing, even Diamandis would be hard pressed to advise that course of action. He may be a big influence, but it's not his money at risk. If it is true that Wills has mortgaged most of his estate to keep the club running, the club going under (and thus there being no prospect of having those mortgages paid off by someone like BP) could mean him having his estate repossessed?
