Saint_clark Posted 2 October, 2009 Share Posted 2 October, 2009 Something similar happened with Weymouth not long ago. The bloke who was meant to be taking them over apparently had a heart attack a couple of hours before the deal was to be finalised, and then "saw what his real priorities were" before disappearing.

Master Bates Posted 2 October, 2009 Share Posted 2 October, 2009 Just found out it's only shock. Apparently there's been a misprint on the documents he's signed.

Gemmel Posted 2 October, 2009 Share Posted 2 October, 2009 I actually think this is positive news for our fishy friends. The "Save of Face" exercise has begun. He will now sell to Storries mob, due to ill health and ironically probably make a few million out of it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will now sell to Storries mob, due to ill health and ironically probably make a few million out of it all. I'm not convinced he actually owns anything yet. From what I understood, while he's put down guarantees that he'll service the debt, Gaydamak still owns the majority of the assets, which won't be handed over until the fake doctor pays off the rest of whatever Gaydamak is owed. As such, I don't think it's actually possible for Storrie and his consortium to buy the club from the fake doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenridge Posted 2 October, 2009 Share Posted 2 October, 2009 Surely he could do some DIY-doctoring to save a few pennies on health care insurance?

Clapham Saint Posted 2 October, 2009 Share Posted 2 October, 2009 Care to elaborate? If not why bother posting. Because I couldn’t be bothered to re write what I had said on the other threat. If it keeps you happy though... Unless the Premier league are going to pump in cash to meet the clubs financial commitments, or use their time machine to go back and prevent the club from incurring the liabilities in the first place I don't see how that is possible. If there was a different way that the club's current finances could be run in order to prevent administration I'm sure they would already be doing it. Sounds like a rule "for show". And how would they fund things to January? The Banks, players and suppliers will still want paying. The PL can't stop QFCs appointing administrators if that is what they chose to do. Long story short. If the PL want to step in to prevent administration they need to do so BEFORE all of the mistakes are made not after, by which time it is too late.

Even people on the dole get their money every fortnight these days. They don't. They get paid monthly, it is just common practice to describe the amount weekly. Probably as a hang over from the days when they would have earned significantly less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
