Whatever Fawaz, all your legal team have blatantly walked off or been sacked. On a serious note, what is happening? Has the greek fella pulled out altogether? Fawaz just seems to have totally lost the lot now....his comments seem to suggest no buyers or anything happening soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that impression to, and if I was a forest fan I would be very, very worried. Certainly seems like Fawaz is trying to flog the club but he's made that much of a mess nobody wants to buy it, and he now seems unwilling to keep throwing money at it, which means the debt grows and grows and grows. i can see Forest being in a lot of trouble in the next 12-18 months, I'd laugh but I honestly think it will see them in serious trouble and we won't be playing many Derbies any time soon, which ultimately would be a shame.

I guess there are a number of issues...does he want his money back?, this is the second time forest seem to have debts of circ 100 million in the space of a few short years, fortunately for forest the last time the family wrote off a large amount of the debt, will he? I really cannot see anyone, unless they have some affinity to the club like mel does with us, buying a second tier average club were 100 million is required BEFORE they even start investing. I think he will have to write off a massive amount. He may actually decide if he isnt going to get his money back to to flip the bird big style at forest fans for the abuse and strangle the club, i think the next few months are critical for forest...either get someone in or go the way of portsmouth/blackpool, i just dont see there being an inbetween with fawaz in charge.

RadioactiveWaste Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Well, how much would Fawaz write off to be shot of them? He's never getting all his family's money back, but will he write of 80-90% for the good of the club? He may have to. I can't see Fawaz doing the "sod it, let it decline and go bust" thing, but I don't think the millions are going to start flowing under his stewardship. Walsall, Chersterfield and god willing Cov, will all make good local rivalries in League 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 If he wants rid then he will put them into administration and that will save him losing any more money and give a buyer a chance to start again. Would lose a lot of players to bring wages down etc.. if if he's really pissed off then the next visit to the high court will end badly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the FL vetoed it as he wasn't a fit and proper person the ironic thing is, the good preseason work that was done getting PP and PM and some good players in was instigated by his team but now that's fallen through the club is back in the hands of a lying crook i think PP and PM came to forest on the assumption that the Greeks would eventually take over. Now that's fallen through PP as gone as apparently the Greeks were paying his wages. PM won't see the month out either now. Apparnetly Red Bull had shown interest but were put off when they realised fawaz wanted to stay on as chairman. it seems now that no one is interested at the current moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not surprised, they have big presence in other leagues, although becoming "Red Bull Tree Stumps" might have an adverse effect on public perception if the experience in europe is anything to go by. Sooner or later I'm sure they'll buy a club in english football and everyone will hate them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to admit, the Red Bull Red Necks has a certain ring to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are allowed to. If your fans piss him off too much he might not settle a winding up order. He won't get the money back anyway and he could be rid of the hassle.

If Fawaz really cared he would have sold and walked. Red Bull money would easily buy you the league, just look how popular they made that German club.
