it's on page one of this thread as well! Yes but the wording is "believed" to be a friend of SSW not that he actually was...I was wondering if it had been confirmed that he ACTUALLY was a friend of his and not merely a neighbour or business aquaintance. |

when the club called there was a rye smile in the office
The bit about the wry smile in the article could be interpretted to back that up.
KT - you should get a job at the adver. Their grasp of the English language is appalling. |

i havent seen any other evidence to support the theory other than that speculation in the adver then.

Cross posted from my post over on the L&P forum.......
but these are my feelings on the matter....
For once I am being optimistic but feel the outcome of the revealing of the height of the clubs debts will be tantermount in the completion of the deal. He may well walk away when he realises that the club is in much higher state of debt than has been suggested by MD or SSW which is pretty much what drove BEST away along with the wish of those 2 to have some/all of their previous investment into the club repayed to them...the missing 8mill as stated previously by the adver etc.
Clearly, I am aware that due diligence is a touch more thorough than internet or local press financial revelations, but he must at least be aware of the scope of likely liabilities by now, and yet still appears interested. Like you JJ I am cautiously optimistic about this |
