Again, so what? He probably had some info but jumped the gun a bit and it didn't pan out.

His parents live across the road from me and he visits now and again. Did a really nice thing for my daughter once. Nice fella. Clearly a big supporter of the club and the city. Not going to get carried away by one iffy tweet or cast doubt on his integrity based on that alone. I don't have the energy to be that cynical.

He had no info as anyone who did would know the critical situation.

Which means he can be wrong, and may be again on this occasion.
That doesn't mean he is but it would be naive to get too carried away.

One of the articles that was linked earlier in the thread said they kept getting consultants in regarding the refinancing knowing they had no hope of paying them. At what point would they be classed as trading insolently?

Monday is that day

Had he recently had a large poker win?

I mean he’s certainly on the board at some companies and had a successful mobile phone business in the 90s, so we’re not even at Dhinsa levels yet. But of course his role isn’t ridiculous front man who promises Champions League on the front of the CET, it’s mysterious money man while Dawkins does the media dance before it almost certainly comes to nothing.

The amount of debt (not the loans of £60m) is I would suspect horrific. I’d love to see Martin reeves in the dock

So SISU will sell when the arena is sold to a big company, the council Wasp thing was one big game and experiment. Shouldn't the council leaders and executives face court action over this?

2 maybe 3 people have made negative comments about him, not the whole forum, stop being a drama queen.

Clearly not been on a thread before where he's leaked something.

If we end up rid of sisu the second the arena becomes available it just shows what a shit show the council bringing wasps in was all along.

Not that we couldn't see it anyway.

Sometimes it’s just down to timing. In answer to Gynns question, this is probably at SISUs peak. Nobody would’ve offered SISU anything worthwhile at the time Wasps bought the stadium so they wouldn’t have sold. This time it might be different as we’re a championship club with players worth a few quid. Let’s hope so anyway

He leaked that wasps had funding and gave it the big un to those who questioned in by stating he only stated things that are definitely happening

So where has all this rumour/ takeover activity suddenly come from? We hear nothing for months or even years then……wham!! and there’s three groups trying to get a hold of everything, it can’t just be because it’s a full moon can it?

Do you ever have any idea of what YOU’RE talking about??

Yes I think Dawkins is dubious as he’s previous source made him look a fool

What is your take of the situation.

We're in the Championship with a stadium available and no council involvement.

Actually agree with you!!! Can you Adam and Eve it.

Also very sceptical of American owners (I know SISU are utter cocks, whom I do not trust one bit) but equally I don’t/wouldn’t trust American owners, so for me it would be out of the frying pan and into the fire.
