Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

If the potential new owners have loaned the club say to £2m to cover costs until the end of the season could they put us into administration if Dai changes his mind and can’t afford to pay them back? Not without a charge against the loan, which would appear on companies house. Without this they're ...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Someone suggested they could just be working on behalf of the yanks, similar to what they did for Bristol Rovers. There website says investment and advisory, so could be either. They also talk about seeking co investors, so it could be that they're leading but also have investors beyond their 2 mai...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

One big reason we don't have a sensible financial model in this country is that it's fundamentally bloody hard. You don't want to discourage ambitious owners from investing and fans from dreaming of punching above their weight, you don't want a system that entrenches the dominance of those fortunat...

What reception are we expecting for Moore? I'll probably go with polite applause.

Re: #SellBeforeWeDai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group

Their point about naming the counterparty is impossible; EFL rules don't allow them to be named until they have completed their OADT procedures. As for asking for communication from the buyer, it does seem a bit self important, but I would agree with the sentiment that building a rapport with the f...

Re: Anyone For Chinese?

What is the point of this discussion? The SCL is obviously our home for the foresee future. The development to push is REP that allows the area to become more of a match hub.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Would love to see football run more like the NFL. Now I know there is only 32 teams so not as much competition for fans etc, but NFL franchises are rarely run at a loss. If we could get the same kind of branding and marketing awareness into football, especially in the catchment area that Reading ha...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

The big question is who with. I expect a journo will report in the next few days. I expect so, there will be no official confirmation as the EFL rules don't allow it but I would imagine one of the local journos will get a name in the neat future. Wording suggest the process could take up to 2 monts...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Would be very happy if its the Wilf bros FWIW the NFL players association do a survey of their players and release a 'score card' for every team on a range of factors including ownership. The Wilfs were 2nd out of 32 teams, with the Vikings players rating them 9.7/10 (A+ grade) this year. Reports a...

Imagine how shit it will feel if it doesn't happen now. The day I thought we were selling Bearwood is the low point to date, but this would top it.

Stranded WE HAVE EXCLUSIVITY.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I repeat THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Amazing. Lots of distance to run, Dai is a cnut, all the usual disclaimers. But this is bloody excellent news!

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

My guess is that while Howe does his best to broker the best deal he can for the club, Pang is working independently to get what Dai thinks is the best deal for him i e the highest bidder. Pang could no doubt find a chancer who says they're willing to pay a big price, but who in reality has no chan...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

SCL are being lead by their hearts, not their heads - they are fans made good and know they are in a position to help the club in the short term. As fans, they will not want to be standing idly by whilst the club dies but at some point, they will not be able to loan/gift more without putting their ...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I really appreciate what SCL and other sponsors have done this year, but it does allow more procrastination. 7 days ago, my working assumption was we'd either have exclusivity and funding, or we'd be in arrears with HMRC which would mean 2 points deducted and a step closer to the endgame. Turns out...
