Actually it's less a speedboard and more an old steamer - perfect!

 

It's on the banner here:

Well it kept us all amused for a few minutes I suppose...

 

Edit: I missed the other bit. Yes it's also described as a tractor belonging to Imhof Gemüsekulturen AG. Looks like they use the same numberings on boats and on land thingies.

that is true but if they have more ability to spend more you have a chance. Your arguement could be used if Paul Allen was buying or A N Other. Pinnacle seem to me to be really short of funds to really push us on and so we rightly look at other bids that may give us more of a hopeful future. I want us to be purchased and so what will be will be, but it would be nice to have a real advantage.

 

You seen the bank statements and know all the members of the consortium then??

 

Or is it just your assumptions?

 

Not only do we want a saviour but we want to be back in the Premiership pronto???

 

I'll take salvation thank you.

Just to summarize the thread so far :

A (classy as f*ck) chick with nice tanned legs was seen at SMS getting out of a gas guzzler with a Swiss reg plate (ZH 33) which is registered as a police boat belonging to a vegetable farmer !

I'm seriously beginning to think that we are on the cusp of a sensational takeover after all !

Bring it on..............

:)

"were all dressed in white suits, and looked classy as f*ck"

 

Those two statements contradict themselves somewhat! Did they have open collar shirts, medallions and arrived with nightfever playing on the stereo

 

Indeed. Whoever heard a white suit being classy..? It may look good, but it certainly doesn't exude class. ;)

Ian,

 

For me the money or amount of it has become a side show along with the league discussions.

 

What has to underly any relationship for it to be a success, personal or business, is trust. I simply don't trust Pinnacle and in particular their reporting of how they intend to finance the deal. We have gone from several major backers to one very wealthy allegedly multi millionaire backer and now MLT advises us that Fialka is one of many providing the funding or words to that effect.

 

Had these changes been communicated in advance then fair enough, situations change and we can understand that but Pinnacle have started to give me the impression they are bungling through this and IMO have used the league discussions as a smokescreen or worse actually believed the right to appeal was key to their bid and an appeal they would win.

 

What worries me even more was MLT's recent comment about Fialka's financial status and how Fialka's personal details should not be MLT's concern - again at least words to that effect.

 

We then have Tony Lynam posting long winded messages on this forum that initially were welcome but have simply become repetitive babble without meaningful content and like a donkey I have been trying to eat the dangling carrot but to no avail and as a result have lost interest.

 

I don't have any inside track unlike many on this forum but for the reasons above and many more mentioned elsewhere on this forum I don't have any faith, confidence or trust in Pinnacle and IMO I am hoping the Swiss come up with a better solution. From my position of ignorance to any aspects of the deal from the inside I personally don't think the Swiss will need to try to hard to win the bid provided they don't leave it to late. If Pinnacle conduct takeovers in this manner what are they going to do when they have control of the club?

 

 

NC,

 

You know what. I'm getting the same feeling that you are getting.

 

Come on Tony prove us wrong !!

 

Regards

thats rich,. I argued against going into administration and what a disaster that would be. Some thought it would be great to see people lose money. Well I worried we may lose our club and many of our players on the cheap and just be a shell. We'll we havent lost our club, but getting very close to it.We are losing our players on the cheap and if the deal is bad we will only be a shell.

As for assessing that they dont have a lot of money I can only go by their actions.To worry about -10 when a decent team with a decent manager you'd make that up, so think (maybe wrongly) that they are underfunded if this is such an issue.

Under Lowe there was no club. He was like a dark cloud.

I wonder if the white uniformed copper-laden steamboat has left the SMS carpark yet?

 

OK, If anyone is still interested the said ZE.33 was parked directly outside the De Vere hotel at 5:35pm as I received a text from James who was working in the kitchen and all hell broke out.

Make what you like of that. I, like everyone else just want the deal done and dusted.
