    I'm in for a £1000 worth of shares?

    I would be interested, especially if the previous shareholders were given their shares back for free. Even Rob S :-; They can choose to add to them of course.

    Your very own "Overcome with emotion" thread...

    THE Bristol City match. You could feel the tension in the packed ground 45 mins before kick off. Everyone was on edge. And when it finished the relief was incredible.

    Gary Hoffman on the phone in....

    My tuppenneth.. If you look at it with "I hate SISU" eyes, it seems like a good offer, because we all want them gone. If you look at it from a "will it be an incentive for them to go" perspective, it doesn't appear to be so good. I think this game still has some distance to go yet before we...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Strange, I was talking to a Lloyds Bank support guy on the phone earlier, and turns out he was Chris Cattlin's nephew.

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    So, the timing of the bid was just to get the fans in a "frenzy" before tomorrows match... foolish to think otherwise, if you're into conspiracy theories of course... Or, maybe the FL was complicit too...organising our last home game just after a bid had been made.. bastards.. Or, and I know...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Sorry OSB, you're wrong. They made a bid. Tim said that a formal takeover offer had been made.... ;)

    If you don't want there to be violence, why not set them both up on little pedestals, like subbuteo figures, with an oversize ball? (Can use their ego's for that) We can all have a go at "shoving" them. At least it would be the correct sport? Not sure how to "shove" them though, maybe a high...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    So it's not just italia being an arse again this time? It's a PR stunt? A poster who is known for regularly getting lots of flak on here, and who's opinion on anything is derided by many posters, is suddenly part of a PR initiative by Hoffman? Really?

    So you want to buy CCFC......

    The only issue I have with this is that SISU investors have been "hidden" since they acquired CCFC, so the question should be reversed. Why does SISU expect them to be transparent when they are themselves clearly not. Otherwise I agree with the principle, but reservations because of what...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    You call italia out all the time (he goes home and away too doesn't he?) Can you prove it was a PR campaign that led to him posting what he said? Where are your facts?

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    I didn't say he does, but his agenda has always been clear. What did Tim and Les' response to Hoffman's bid say to you? SISU don't want him involved, clearly. OSB referred to it earlier in this thread. And along comes Rob, and guess what, he starts to undermine Hoffman. Not difficult to make...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    It is quite telling nick. If anyone suddenly appears on here after an absence having a go at SISU, you're all over them. Rob S turns up every so often, and not a word from you, just the opposite in fact. you try to undermine those that mention it. Even this latest post, worded as it is, could be...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Maybe because if he is involved, any dirty washing (that he may have been privvy too) could be hung out in public once SISU have gone. What was his role at CCFC? Vice Chairman? Was he responsible for the Finance? If so, maybe Tim's assertion that the books were in a mess reflected badly on...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    I don't recall how many said it, but, come on, "let's make them accept it at the Walsall game? I mean, it's not like there's been any protests at other games eh? Last home match of the season, we're relegated, you really think people needed any "whipping up" Do you think it will have any...
