Weird listening to CWR rather than Radio Four this early.

Weird listening to CWR rather than Radio Four in the early.

No difference is there.

Doug king on cwr shortly

Put it on to hear the news that somebody bought a cabbage in a shop and the price scanned wrong.

 

[Nick]

Why are they saying cwr broke the news? Wasn't it on the official site?

 

[Nick]

Gilbert straight in asking about sisu.

Says he knows Dermot but didn't know joy. Couple of weeks ago he approached joy.
Link important because of the speed of being able to do it and the trust.
Share holding is 85% and what it is.
He loves it is run smoothly. The club
Great chance to get stadium

 

[CCFCSteve]

Go on Gilbert..

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Willing to pay £25m for the CBS says King

 

[Nick]

Went later than were hoping
Club belongs to the stadium
Disappointing with wasps, lot of people lost money
Don't want to speak bad of Ashley
Haven't been able to look at anything
Willing to pay 25m




He keeps saying super. I feel sick.

Full interview online

 

[CCFCSteve]

Lots of ‘super’

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Seems a very round figure to pay for the stadium (£25mil), as though plucked out the air.

Being a city fan makes me cynical!

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Why on earth didn’t they play the full interview with King? Bizarre

 

[Nick]

So purchasing with equity, not debt, what does that mean?

Smashing

Super excited

 

[CCFCSteve]

Smashing

lovely

 

[richnrg]

did anyone ask him why he has a meringue on his head?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Watch Ashley bid £26m

I mean big words to say he want the arena for £25m without doing any due diligence.

 

[djr8369]

Right so no due diligence but would like the chance to buy the stadium. Who is this aimed at? The council can’t just pull MAs bid and give it to this guy? Guess we’ll know a bit more after the court case but this has a strong chance of going absolutely nowhere.

Has anyone listened to the extended interview and know if he takes on the club without the stadium if MA gets it?

So purchasing with equity, not debt, what does that mean?

Shares not bonds effectively So there will be no wasps issue and no debt on the club

 

[torchomatic]

Trust statement soon. Ha.

 

[CCFCSteve]

Gilbert back on within next 15 mins

Shares not bonds effectively So there will be no wasps issue and no debt on the club

So paying up front?

Gilbert back on within next 15 mins

[GIMOC]

Doug king in a previous life

 

[SIR ERNIE]

The more we hear, the stronger the stench of SISU's familiar underhand tactics grows.

This has the medium term potential to completely destroy the incredible on-field achievements of recent weeks.

 

[skyblu3sk]

Video doesn't seem to be up yet.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Told you not to celebrate just yet

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

 

[JonesBob]

Let's be honest, ALL of us know totally naff all about this situation. My only conclusion, after stepping back, is remember 95% of you guys on here are totally negative pessimists and maybe, just maybe, the good Lord has seen how we City fans have suffered and is going to give us the next 20 years or more of Man Cityish style success. Amen to that!

 

[CCFCSteve]

Ukraine war this, Ukraine war that…common CWR, get to the important stuff

[GIMOC]

after sleeping on it. Even more convinced after hearing Doug this deal is just one last roll of the dice from sisu. No mention of robins or the team in his statement. Just all about the ground. 12 hours before court case starts for it.

the amount of naive and gullible posters on here is scary.
