Can I just ask quietly and without getting my head severaged from my body: Does this mean that this board is now officially supporting the SISU out campaign?

From CT: The club’s directors, including Ken Dulieu who is back in Portugal, Leonard Brody who is currently in Vancouver, vice-chairman John Clarke, chief executive Paul Clouting and Sisu front man Onye Igwe held a weekly conference call board meeting early yesterday evening but claim they...

We'll never know the full truth, but history will be written by the winner.

Remember SOAP?

I am old and my memory is too good anymore. Yours is probably much better. Can you recall hearing Ken - with his own voice - saying that the business is still making a £6 million/yr loss? I know he has been quoted in the paper, but we all know how reliable that is. It has also been stated as a...

Loans can only be recalled if they are defaulted. As long as the payment scheme is followed Hoffman can not use his influence in the way you imply. England is not Zimbabwe.

Yes, but we have already established that financial losses are not the same as cash flow deficit. Previous player sales could have been transformed from receivables in the previous account to actual cash in the last account. Still, it is a fair assumption that the board have upped the external...

I have seen a few posts that hints the chairman and board members will do whatever it takes to ruin any chance of a take over. In reality they know what kind of offer the owners will accept/consider and is acting as instructed.

They also lost all their Wimbledon FC history and had to return their FA trophy won the year after us. They are battling a relatively huge debt and their fan base is down to about 3.000. In those 9 years we have played in the championship, the league cup and the FA cup.

Yep - and we could even be back to where we are now in about ... eh ... 20 years time?

We won't know for some time if we get relegated, so at this time I don't think a discounted bid for the loans will be accepted. And as I said, leaving the loans in the hands of new owners will only happen at a price. That could be in form of an immidiate down payment of a considerable amount and...

I think we have been over this a few times already. SISU themselves have not invested anything - they are managers of funds who have loaned the club £25+ million. Those loans are just sitting there - no interest is charged and with no periodic installment. As long as the club is a going concern...

I think it has been mentioned several times on this board that the price for the shares is not an issue. It may be £1 - it may be more or less. It's the £25+ million loans that is the stumbling block.

Probably not, but if 2.000 fans did, and the board did, and many in the club administration did, and some players did ... it would be a hell of a strong signal to potential investors! If would be a walk in the park getting the rest of the £250.000. And one more thing ... it would bring a...

Did you see my photo (top of this page)?

I think they can - so they ask the question: "Would fans be prepared to help fund new players".

Administration is what we should all fight to avoid, it won't do anyone any good. Strengthning the squad is the way to fight off administration.

I understand what you are saying and respect your commitment. I could afford the £25 and I certainly would expect the board members to contribute on a personal level as well. If the money was placed as a loan and repaid after say three years with a 10% interest, then it could maybe attract a...

I don't know - it's a little too abstract for me. Would I contribute £25 towards buying a player we desperately need? Yes, if the money really was ringfenced for the purpose.
