I assume the legal actions will start today.So no more chat bullshit and wondering where we stand.

Am i right in assuming the fans cant really do much about this either now.

Oh and if power does not wear a orange tie to court i will stop supporting his takeover Cheesy

I'm bored by it all now - just want it sorted. It may seem we can expect an all action duel now, but this will drag on for months upon months now

The Adver seems to think it's all set to go off today:

This is starting to worry me. I just hope it doesn't all end up with the fans being left without a club.

There is no way all of this will be dealt with before the season is started, and I can just see it being one big distraction.

Don't get me wrong, if it all ends with Power and the trust in, the current board long gon, then I'm pleased.

It must all be frustrating Sturrock aswell, when he's trying to get players in.
I realy hope it comes to an end son, with Power in charge.

It shouldn't go on for long in my opinion.  One side or the other has to show the proof in court and a ruling be made, seem simple enough to me.

it would seem that it's a fairly straightforward case, certainly having read what si pie has said on the issue - if the club can prove they have either a share certificate or an application for shares then the club win. if they can't, power wins.

don't see the club going under unless diamandis insists on taking it down with him which seems unlikely given what ssw stands to lose.

i don't see how it will effect sturrock or the players, the budget is in place and he'll sign the players he can afford.

Do not put it past Diamandis- even if SSW stands to lose. Remember he only has his interests at heart and he will be losing his business their biggest income stream

I can't see SSW letting it get to that stage, although he rely's on Diamandis surely he is not that stupid to see he would lose everything if he didn't do a deal...

Or diamandis may out of spite let it get to court and do an out of court settlement minutes before the judgement is due so he can keep his gresy little hands on the club a little longer before he is forced to let go.

At the end of the day I trust the consortium I don't trust the stfc board...
