Another thread on the same subject why not just amalgamate it with the other 4.

Why not tell the trust to prove me wrong?

No worries, they can just get somebody like you to bang on about something over their heads to ignore it.

Another obvious thing that happens every time.

People aren't thick, surely it's about time people stop trying to make out they are? The silence is deafening. Why won't moz answer? Where's CJ to correct me? Why does David Johnson not have answers when quizzed?

All just hide behind a silly old prick from the council and his social media accounts to spout nonsense. Laughable.

Let's just hope their plan does work, ay?

I've been pointing out for weeks what it looks like is going on.

Predictable to the point it was obvious it would happen
I have been pointing out for months though.

It's almost as if I called exactly what was happening but again got told was paranoid ;)

Please note, I did call Hoffman rising from the shadows a few weeks ago. That's how obvious it is.
Like I have been saying for weeks,

People don't seem to have been picking up on me pointing it out

Which is the point I have been trying to make
It is going to be exactly as predicted.

Odds on Hoffman or one of the crew being caught on Sky's camera on Sunday?
Fwiw it has to be the ripe time to oust sisu but have this group got the wedge in the bank to do it now?

Course they will pop up just like Michael buble at Christmas coming out his cave

It keeps being said it’s Hoffman but if what I’ve been told is true there is a consortium of local business men in the back ground some considerably wealthier than Hoffman or Elliott, one apparently not resident in Britain which I suppose doesn’t make him very local does it.
Looks to me sisu have got behind the black ball they either back down and cease all legals present or future or see an asset currently with £7million+ bid for on the table become valueless in just over 3 months

Where on earth have you heard about this non-domiciled benefactor?

My box is just down from Hoffman’s at the Ricoh, might pop along and ask him a thing or two at the next game (or forge a betting account statement and see if I can join the consortium).

One of them has been sponsoring the academy so even without ownership he’s doing more than the owners.

We all assume Joy doesn’t want to sell because that’s what she has consistently said but what if she does, apparently the last Hoffman led bid of approximately £7million is still on the table so from her point of view how better way is there to get a better bid than to use the threat to our existance to try and twist an arm or two, with the crucial dates now out of the bag, an end game now looks in sight, still a case of who blinks first though.

The thing is, people lost their shit about ACL being distressed but don't seem that bothered about CCFC being distressed for the same reason.

Can anybody see SISU letting somebody else get the better of them at their own game?

Like I have been saying for weeks, amazing if it works but I can't see them being taken by surprise by it and will have something up their sleeve. My worry is what that is.
do you think the league are in cahoots with someone to try and force the issue?

The only thing I can see that might have changed sisu’s view is if they have trousered the Maddison money Meaning they might not demand as much up front. I doubt it though.

Looking at all the angles I can see what you say and sisu are old pros in this sort of things and will have gone through all the scenarios, I think she might sell this time...if the price is right.

Wasn't part of the Hoffman bid allowing ARVO to take Ryton?
If that were to happen valuable resources would have to be devoted to training facilities rather than to the squad. New ownership might mean a much poorer club.

would anybody care if it secured our existence? If we had new owners running the club properly, securing our future and trying to take the club forward in the proper way then it would be worth it.
Though I've absolutely no doubt that if they weren't throwing money around after a season there'd be a new NOPM campaign and people calling for their head.

I'd rather it was done right.

So that would mean no ideas above station like starting at the Ricoh, concentrating on building the foundations (a ground! A training ground!) and actually getting the infrastructure right.

Ever since McGinnity sold off well, just about everything, we've not had that, and we need it if we want to move forward sustainably.

Agree with that. Fingers crossed and head down (similar stance to Brexit)

My worry is if it back fires, if it works then amazing

I look forward to our glorious future and can see no reason at all to be concerned

The only one that I wouldn’t like to see back is Elliot but currently I would take him over Joy.

I don’t get why people are so down on Hoffman he has a few quid and seems to have a wealthy group of backers, as Overson alone sold his business for over £200 million. These men haven’t built up large personal fortunes by being idiots.

If the club folds surely the Wilson money will not need to be paid so I wouldn’t be expecting Bournemouth to do any deal with Sisu.
