roboto Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I don’t think we ever had confirmation that Appleby had made a final bid, did we? There was mention of a UK and a US bid and people assumed it was Mike Ashley and Andy Appleby. However today we’ve found out that Mike Ashley hasn’t had contact for 2 months with Q so is unlikely to be the UK bid mentioned recently and Elaine, whoever it is at Ramstrust who can’t keep her mouth shut, mentions Appleby not in the running. Could still leave the 2 aforementioned bids on the table and being considered. However, you’d think, if a suitable bid had come in that satisfies the criteria by now it would’ve been accepted already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing we've ever heard about Applebys bid is that he never seems to have had quite enough money. He was always trying to "raise funds" to get a bid in, so no I don't really think he was ever in the running either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An NDA should not prevent disclosure of who is Bidding, but it must prevent any details of the financials or terms of the bids in order to ensure bidders cannot see what they are bidding against r_wilcockson and RoyMac5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wtf do they expect Quantuma to say? They could give us a little more information, like yes there is still 3 bids in the running. A statement telling us the stumbling block is the cost of what Mel wants for Pride park etc. The None Disclosure is about details of who is bidding and their various details. They don't confirm the exact amount of bidders and they seemed to have dropped the "shortly" and "immanently" quotes. Any other club on the brink and thinking of going into administration, won't be giving these clowns a call. europia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I'm still struggling to understand why there are interested parties, but seemingly no acceptable bids. Surely Quantuma have given the credible potential owners a series of minimum figures which will secure the bits of the deal - eg, £62m gets the club, stadium, golden share and no points deduction, £33m gets you the golden share, the club on -15 points, but no stadium, £12m gets you the club, but no stadium or golden share... etc The 'bidders' must all know the figures by now, and none of them appear willing or able to offer enough to get the club in the format they want. So why are they still interested? The debts aren't going to get less, so their bids aren't suddenly going to become acceptable. So why haven't they made a viable bid or walked away?
