MK-Ram Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I can't see beyond Appleby/Rush on this if they are bidding. I'm convinced this is the bidder Percy was talking about a while back when he referred to a dream bidder. Whoever the backer is, Appleby and Rush know the club and Appleby has a record in making us stable...even if the football was dire for a while, he ultimately gave us the best season in my memory.

I'm not on Twitter but I think someone posted a Tweet on here asking Percy, after the Kirchner bid had been revealed, whether that was the bid that he had been referring to and Percy confirmed that it was i.e. Kirchner.

Although, if this was 321, Tepper would be the speedboat, Kerchner would be a new Mini Metro wheeled out with its four way flashers on, and Alonso would be....

Ramarena Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Appleby returning would be an interesting one. Had a prudent financial plan for the club, but ultimately it didn’t go down well with sections of our fanbase. The atmosphere got pretty toxic and led to some protests. Its all a decade ago now, but how would our fans react to him now? If he has a backer with deep pockets (Tepper) would our fans demand more and how would that fit with a potentially prudent financial plan that would be required to resuscitate the club?

therealhantsram Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) 5 hours ago, The_Sheriff said: I think Kirchner is the front runner- the way the admins spoke about him this week that's the impression i got and i am all for it. Anyone got the atheltic subscription to share Elias article today? I have it. The summary is: In the view of the Athletic, Chris Kirchner is not wealthy enough, and his company does not generate enough cash, for either him or his company to be buying DCFC alone (as he has suggested so far). Therefore they suggest one of two scenarios: Kirschner is just a front-man for an un-named money man, or Kirschner does not have the funds and him going public this last week was an effort to drum-up a consortium to provide the necessary cash. (I guess you could call this the Alonso strategy) Edited October 29, 2021 by therealhantsram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
