I may be adding 2 + 2 and getting 500k, but is it possible that somewhere down the line, is Clowes going to give us 'normal' fans a chance to buy a share in the club? If the club was valued at £50M, then each share would be worth £100. I think that most fans could afford to buy at least 1 share. Is he looking to really make the club, a fans' club?

Some technical one I guess, as on the face of it borrowing money from Stretford to pay wages does not sound much different to borrowing it from Dell for same purpose ?♂️ Crewton and r_wilcockson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing for certain it wasn't any of the prospective owners fault. The appropriate action (if any rules were breached) would be to go after Quantuma who were responsible for day to day management and financial control, Kirchner who was claiming ownership and supposedly funding us, and Stretford, although the other 2 parties should know if they were able to accept his money or not. Would be pretty hillarious if those who have acted ridiculously over the past 9 months got their just desserts. Agree with most of your post but I thought the “vendetta” was being carried out by the EFL ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look where that got udy I remember that too. Something about him just having a more expensive season ticket than the rest of us as well. Have tried to find it online but to no avail...

RAMS1992 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Could Clowes have inadvertently caused Kirchner to happen do we think? May be a bit of a conspiracy however my thoughts are that Kirchner never intended to buy the club. Kirchner comes in I’ll pay more than it’s worth and more than anyone else will pay BUT I don’t want the stadium AND I don’t want to lease it from Mel. Name is in all the papers, fans in love with him, he’s the saviour and it’s all Mels fault that we can’t move forward. Quantuma have a figure the creditors like and struggle to get other parties close whilst Kirchner remains balls on table. Lease deal is put to Kirchner with option to buy, he refuses and admin won’t make him preferred bidder and he storms off…blames admins. Comes back a few months later, does the same thing except this time someone else will buy the stadium and he doesn’t want to lose face, runs around trying to beg, borrow and steal to complete?

One is that the slync investors got tired of CK’s shenanigans. No surprise there. His gallivanting around may well have messed up their fundraising round leaving staff unpaid ? The other is the claim that Stretford ‘self reported’ to the FA. That’s a weird one given he also claims to have had legal advice that he did nothing wrong. Perhaps q told him that if he didn’t blow the whistle then they would lots more to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
