Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 15:43:51 Quote Dear Trevor, Why can you not pick up the phone and speak to Mr Fitton's lawyers to find out what the hell is actually going on, rather than act all blase and say 'Well we're waiting to hear from them' when they are infact actually waiting to hear from you. I think the phrase I'm looking for is - PULL YOUR FINGER OUT! Kindest regards Sam Binstead That ought to do it.

Bob Holt was right - it actually IS just like buying a house !!
Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 15:50:27 Surely Fittons solicitors should be chasing them on a regular basis anyway?

"erm can I speak to Mr Watkins please" "I'm sorry he is in a meeting right now" "ok can you get him to call me as soon as he comes out" "of course" AD INFINITUM Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: Power to people on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 15:53:58 Quote from: "Fred Elliot" Quote from: "Power to people" Isn't it Westlake Bell they use for the Holding Co ? may have changed P2P, but thats who Davies and Co were communicating with over the FC They was using No Show at Clarke Willmott for the Football club and Westlake Bell for the Holding Co I beleive as this is who holds Diamandis shares in proxy for him - so I would imagine there is 3 sets of solicitors involved Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: pauld on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:09:03 Clarke Willmott for the FC; Wedlake Bell act for the Holding Co; Breems (IIRC) are the ones that act as nominees for Mikey D's shares.

Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: redbullzeye on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:22:25 So it could be any of these cunts holding the deal up :evil:
Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: BANGKOK RED on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:38:00 Quote Dear Trevor. I am a supporter of Swindon Town Fottball Club for over 15 years now, and despite now living in Thailand my passion for the club has not wained in the slightest. Despite my physical distance from the current debacle at the club I still follow events very closely, and would like to urge you in the strongest possible terms to get the deal completed for the sake of many thousand's and other like myself, and for the fine footballing history that our country has in general. I may be no legal guru myself, but I suspect that the technical jargon for this scenario would be "JUST DO IT, INNIT" What's more is that should this deal fall through, then you may well be representing your clients in a different capacity. Such as defendant's in a fraud case for example (Or have you thought of that already: $$$$$) Your's Sincerely Jamie Finch. Do you think that I will get a reply?[/quote] Title: Re: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: STFC_Manc on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:56:31 Quote from: "Fred Elliot" Trevor Watkins is the guy we need to put under pressure Get busy lads http://www.clarkewillmott.com/contact.html?Article=31 Sent a nice little email :) Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: BANGKOK RED on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:57:44 Errrrrm, I just got a reply:
"Perhaps you can alert your comrades to the fact that you have the wrong law firm – we are NOT dealing with this matter. I suggest you direct your concern to the holding company lawyers. Trevor Watkins Partner" Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: STFC_Manc on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:59:09 haha oh well. who are they?
Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 16:59:12 Ohhhhh
comrades !!!!! Thats fucking ace !!!!

Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: pauld on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:01:04 Quote from: "redbullzeye" So it could be any of these cunts holding the deal up :evil: Yes it could be but lawyers act under instructions from their clients. We've been here before remember when we (Fans Consortium) were trying to get them to sign an NDA? Then we had the "email sent to wrong address", lawyers mysteriously not available for days at a time, and "sources close to the club saying they have done everything that has been asked for" (from this afternoon's Adver report). Just waiting for Holt to pop up and say Fitton never put in a formal offer now and we'll have a full flashback nostalgia trip. Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: DerbyRed on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:01:18 I'm guessing we don't have a specific contact name at Wedlake Bell?
I'd guess just filling in the contact form won't get us very far but will do it anyway! Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: BANGKOK RED on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:02:42 I feel a bit sorry for Trev now!

Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: DMR on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:55:28 To be blunt it's not anyone on here's duty to email lawyers about a transaction you're not involved in, you all look a bit sad and more to the point YOU HAD THE WRONG EFFING BLOKE!
You're hindering your own fight Fred, sorry Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:56:23 Oh well, he probably deserves it for all the guff with the Fans Consortium. Meh.
Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: DMR on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:57:55 Oh and they're lawyers ffs, they act on their client's instructions - in this case the Swindon board.
Thats who our grievance is and always should be with. Fucks sake Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: DMR on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 17:58:41 Quote from: "Samdy Gray" Oh well, he probably deserves it for all the guff with the Fans Consortium.

You're hindering your own fight Fred, sorry I put links to both lawyers websites. We now know for definate who is handling the transaction. The only way that could be done was to phone the club or Fitton, or use a process of elimination.

Thats who our grievance is and always should be with. Fucks sake Yep. If the lawyers are stalling it's because they've been told to. Just like with the Fans' Consortium last spring/summer EDIT: although that said, both sets of lawyers are cocks so I haven't got much sympathy with them Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: BANGKOK RED on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 18:07:54 For me, sending Email's to Lawyers regardless of wether it is right or wrong, give's me the opportunity to at least TRY to do SOMETHING and so I shall continue to do so!
I don't really see how it could hinder the cause either. Title: Clarke Willmott Solicitors Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, 18:17:01 The guy that is dealing with this at Wedlake Bell for the club is CHRIS PUTT.
