ADVER: Fitton Back In Uk to Finish Takeover

[Reg Smeeton]

Unless Fitton himself releases a statement by tomorrow morning stating that the deal is as good as done, the fans have to protest like it's 1999.

Whereas before, people were not entirely clear exactly what they were protesting about or against, there is now something tangible for everyone to rally around. i.e accept the God dammned mother fucking offer you mother fuckers or our Club dies. There's been too much pussy footing around to date. Tomorrow has to be the big one.

 I'll look forward to seeing you behind teh Arkells then OST.

This has just been posted on thisis....:

Lard boy Diamands wants £1.3m for redundancy payments for Starnes, Lamberet, Grey and himself, before he will release his shares in the holding company that he paid £10 for.
That is the sticking point.

Apart from Mike D the rest are employees of STFC arent they?

Which would mean the new owners would take them on when they take on the club and any redundancy would be paid by STFC under the new regime?

[OneAndrewFitton]

He's just posted again saying Fitton wouldn't pay it hence him not getting the club.

that bloke has a reputation for being a wind-up merchant.

i've never heard of directors getting redundancy pay though!

[OneAndrewFitton]

This is probably a wind up as well but i'll post it anyway, this was posted on myonlyswindon earlier today by town_end_wig

On the way to the town centre this morning I happened to be party to a supposedly informed discussion over the reasons why Seat and will appear completely under the spell of Dime and mike.

This unnamed person who may or may not have been connected with a Newbury based business was adamant that Dime and mike have "something big" over Seat and will which they would never want "getting out in the open".

I of course could only speculate on what said person whose name is unknown to me could have been referring to. But he or she was convinced that this was the reason why Dime and mike had enjoyed such a charmed existence over the years.

Hope this helps.

   Fuck me SY the world is awash with execs/ directors who get massive golden handshakes for incompetence.....Diamond Mike probably thinks he's some sort of major player.

Not unusual in business for the top men to get a golden handshake, even in cases of failure.

But this is surely a piss take on oldtownreds part!

[Sussex]

Hope so Batch.

Still waiting..

redundancy pay though? a couple of mill to fuck out off of it, sure, but never heard it referred to as redundancy pay though

[Red Len]

how long have they been in there now? are the talks still going on? if its been more than a few hours surely there must be enough common ground to wrangle it out? redundancy package??

fuck , this is painful  :|

Meh, an overnight statement or early tomorrow wouldn't be a major surprise.

[OneAndrewFitton]

Diamandis is just being greedy as per usual, he just wants to screw people out of more and more money.
