GenBr Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 2 minutes ago, MACKWORTHRAM said: I keep reading things about an article John Percy wrote in which he referred to an American Consortium as "the dream" Did anyone read that? If so was it about this American Consortium? Think their were rumours at the time that they were linked with an agent or agency, which is what made it such a promising offer. Could be the alleged Sam Rush/Andy Appleby group that is a sports agency that represents a fair few sports stars in the UK - might make it easier to get people to join us - bit like Wolves I suppose.

Helped spaff all the parachute money in advance. Made promises of “taking the Premier League by a force” (sic), and “we are not there to make up the numbers”, before funding the likes of Eddie Lewis and Andy Griffin. Stood outside Pride Park to announce signing of Myka Varynen, again, didn’t happen. As soon as he could offload the club, with all its future money tied up, he was off. I will keep my comments on his involvement with Lionel Pickering ending up broke to myself. Otherwise you quite like him ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwram1973 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Looks like he's insisting it's still on. Either Percy has got it wrong or Alonso is a duckin headcase ? Indy, Jourdan and Derby4Me 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean (hick) Saunders Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Is it too much too hope that MM will next time be a bit more selective on buyers? I am expecting Noddy next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my perspective he was brilliant to me and my two boys. Invited to a game, sat in directors box with the full works. Found him to be good company .

DCFC1388 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 So either Alonso is delusional (likely) thinking the deal is still on, or maybe the club have leaked this story on purpose to get Alonso to pull his finger out and to submit the funds the EFL have requested. I know which one I think it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
