they state in their article that 'The club has previously said a new consortium of investors would include long-time owner the Wills family, their advisor and club general manager Mike Diamandis, and a new investor '.
Read the first few words of that - 'The club has previously said...
tells me that there is nothing new to report other than the company name that was released lst night.

The BBC was incorrect then in that SSW is not on the current board. He's left that to the Horray Henry part of the Family. They may hopefully be wrong on the rest too

The BBC are the worst source for anything to do with football in the lower leagues, all they do is just trawl through old articles from every where else. This is just the statement that was made 6 weeks ago brought up again. All the recent stuff has suggested a Takeover as opposed to an investment.
And AFC Swindon is not a good idea, it has not taken off at FC United and they have got millions of fans, if the worst comes to the worst I will go and watch Lambourn in the North Berks thanks.

ALSO does anyone else find it mildly amusing how wound up Fatters is getting about this? I find it more than mildly amusing!!! However. Im still sceptical as to what has taken place overnight will mean to our club. |

It might be refreshing to actually look at the positives than continually spouting negativity.
1. Complete new board with a sporting background
2. the next Kaka or Ronaldinho being unearthed and starting their career at STFC
3. Significant funds for the manager to push on to the championship and then the promised land
4. A new stadium within the Borough whether that be on the CG or somewhere else
Now I know I will get slated and people will point out reasons for none of these happening but at the moment they have as much chance of happening as all the negative points that have been put forward and that is because it is
all SPECULATION.

We've still got no hard facts, so everybody should stop fucking speculating. Unfortunately the absence of facts, is bound to lead to speculation, its entirely possible that this may turn out to be a pivital moment in our history, (for the better)......but sure doesn't feel like it to me. When SSW opened up the door to the Brady bunch for STFC to be their plaything, he did so on a basis of waiting and seeing, and when it went pear shaped, for better or worse, stepped back in. This may be a similar arrangement....the Portugeezers take a chunk and presumably deal with the playing side, Diamond Mike , deals with the ground. I can't help feeling if it was *good news week, there would be more of a fanfare. * Hedgehoppers Anonymous. |
