Mandaric bid to be rejected

[Jeff]

Only if he issued a winding up order or similar, is he likely to do that?

Who knows?

If he's only ever been successful before we don't know how he'd react if he was losing money and we didn't get promoted.

And the decision may not even be his - he could be hit by a bus after lending us a load of money, it would still need to be paid back.

 

[Babylon]

and we will be waiting from now til eternity for it.

Or until 10pm tonight when I ride in on my horse and save the club after winning £88m on the euro lottery.

I thinkn the key to this is in your first line.

You'll only have £44M then cos Ive got my eye on it. Joint bid?

Sorry EMC I am now part of a consortium with Babylon :icon_lol:

 

[From Gradel to Grave]

Even a loan would count as an investment.. wouldn't it?

That was never the implication.

Mandaric has been saying his motivation is his love of football.

The idea of 'investment' that is in reality 'debt' leaves me feeling very uncomfortable.

Obviously the club has something going for it to be attracting the interest it is. I'm worried we're going to blow it if we don't get the investment - and I don't mean debt - that the club needs.

I want Mandaric in but...

...you wont take a chance on him? You'd rather wait for a £25M gift to fall out of the sky?

Cuckoo land.

He would get his money back by selling the training ground and any decent players we might have.

Yeah get lost EMC you splitter.

My only stipulation in giving the gift is that I get a throne on the half way line and get to wear a crown. Oh and get 5 virgins girls in my boardroom after every game.

Seems fair, make it 2 lots of the above though :icon_bigg

Well.. when I win.. you'll get a throne alright.. but the view wont be very good

Blimey

He started to do the same at Pompey... ask their fans.

 

[OldGit]

Exactly, anything else is a gift....

Not necessarily - money could be put in as new equity.

And the nature of any debt is also important - is it simply a loan which has to be serviced, corporate bonds, or what?

This latest rumour gives no indication of the exact nature of what is proposed. I treat it with the same caution as I have treated all the euphoric statements and other rumours, but it does serve to illustrate the complex job the board has to do before making any recommendation to the shareholders.

Does it really matter? It's either an 'investment' or a 'gift'. They either want the money back or they dont.
