Can't see this mentioned anywhere

http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/10513407.Swindon_Town_investor_Greg_Hall_was_part_of_rogue_firm/

Does this explain the empty purse?

The firm was used by Jed McCrory’s consortium to take over the club. It is believed Hall represented a group of investors which made an official offer.

But this was not taken up by the club when the group’s initial promises failed to materialise.

Pretty much ties in with what was said on here before the adver broke the story some time back. They should put con men like this in prison

I wonder if these were the funds that Jed said were similar to Blacks, I guess when it wasn't forthcoming we went with Lee Power instead.

Not exactly a surprise...part of the reason why some fans are sceptical about the current incumbents of the boardroom

You'd have thought the board would do background checks on potential investors? You could have anyone from anywhere promising investment. Munto-Finance style.

They did...and probably took a gamble on Hall coming up trumps.

Could well be, but we must not lose sight of the fact that Black withdrew his cash and we were going down the admin route - in fact we were hurtling towards it - until Jed came in initially.  It will unravel soon and we will see exactly where we are.

Has Jed or Murrall hacked DRS's account?

Reading the report, it seems more a case of no money was forthcoming rather than any scruples about Hall's background.

Black took over a business that was sufficiently insolvent to need an immediate and serious injection of cash
Jed?
Black lost serious money during his ownership and took nothing out for himself
Jed?
Black left a business that was sufficiently solvent not to require any serious cash input
Jed?

Huh??

They were approached about investment,realised he was a blatant cock and got rid.Agree they should of done more checks but lets face it the timeframe they had has clearly left them undoing a few errors they made.

So do you think that if he'd have come up with the funds Jed and Co would still have told him to do one?
