Fuck letting him run the club but the bit that interests me is that he has stated he has offered £20 million SUBJECT to seeing the clubs account. Could the consortium not have done that with our board then made them a offer subject to seeing the accounts Title: souness Post by: @MacPhlea on Tuesday, January 9, 2007, 16:00:09 They did - it's called due dilligence...

I know that but did they offer a figure or just say we know we can afford it we want to buy the club can we see your books pleaseTitle: souness Post by: hansgruber on Tuesday, January 9, 2007, 16:06:33 You'd have to be pretty stupid to offer money for any business without seeing the accounts

I know that but did they offer a figure or just say we know we can afford it we want to buy the club can we see your books pleaseWW are a completely different kettle of fish Deano. For a start, they are solvent and not in the throws of a cva. This basically means they have a positive balance sheet. Therefor someone could table an opening gambit of X ammount of pounds on the understanding that due dilligence could then proceed over the lastest set of audited, approved and filed accounts. Our situation is vastly different ; No accounts being filed The latest accounts not being ratified by the accountants. Behind with CVA payments etc We are not solvent ! In order to make the club solvent AND to trade from a positive balance sheet we need to understand the full extent of ALL of the clubs liabilities (debts). Now in order for that to be understood we need to examine the trading history of the business (due dilligence) Given the points tabled above, and the clubs unwillingness to grant us that facility, it knocks the WW scaenario into a cocked hat !

Title: souness Post by: lebowski on Tuesday, January 9, 2007, 17:59:13 he offered £20million because that's the figure that was (supposedly) quoted as being the asking price.

It has gone quiet over the XMAS period, and quite rightly so in my opinion. Everyone at this time of year is entitled to put their feet up and spend some time with their families (and yes I do mean everyone) Trevor Watkins (Lawyer from Clarke Willmott) was away for Xmas and returns on the 12th. Mike has been away at family commitments in Europe but is now back in the UK. Iam sure that once the 12th passes that things will begin to progress. The break may have been a good thing for all parties Title: souness Post by: red macca on Tuesday, January 9, 2007, 22:37:09 Quote from: "Fred Elliot" Yes I hope your right i just hope we keep the momentum goingIt has gone quiet over the XMAS period, and quite rightly so in my opinion.
