Didn't even realise he was interested in the first place
You really ought to take more interest then.
There are some who think that he should pay SISU back a significant chunk of their "investment", but I don't think there's anyone who seroiously doesn't think "he was interested in the first place".
<br />I don't know but thanks for the info - I'm switching to Nat West.
In Hoff we trust. The private equity boys like Shitsu are corporate chancers will do things that although legal may be unethical as their reputation to the public is not as important as a high street bank's reputation. The reputation that matters to them is with the sovereign wealth investors ie that they can give them a good return on investment. Thus walkig away from CCFC empty handed after incurring huge losses is not an option
No comment on Hoffman.......... but you do realise the circumstances why he is being put forward as the head of Barclays don't you ?

Hoffman isn't "sorting" out Coventry City.

If you do your homework, Gary Hoffman has previously been chairman of Barclaycard and vice chairman of Barclays bank before assuming the role of Cheif Exec at Northern Rock. He's very capable, highly regarded and extremely talented. Any failings to secure investment at CCFC are purely down to Sisu's ineptitude and bare faced reluctance to do a reasonable deal, not pay off their misguided negligence.
Bet he has a better paid job than you though !If you do your homework you would realise that when he was Chairman of Barclaycard it made huge losses(well before the financial crisis), and that he was removed from that as not considered a big enough hitter.
He was made Vice-Chairman of Barclays, but in a non job as Vice-Chairman of Equality and Diversity, basically a long "gardening leave".
Made Chairman of Northern Rock once the worst had really happened, though after he left it was sold to Virgin at a loss to the taxpayer.
At NBNK, closed down after failing in either of it's mandates to buy either the aformentioned Northern Rock, and losing over £30million for it's investors in 18 months.
Can we stop waiting for "the King over the water", not going to happen, and not the best track record in high finance that some like to make out.
Was never going to be a quick solution although a deal was almost done last January but Dulieu fucked that up, different circumstances now and it's a buyers market. I think SISU could throttle the tango man

Gary Hoffman has always been interested ...... in getting someone else to buy and invest in the club.
There is no evidence that any deal was nearly done ..... no due diligence was done ..... no offer accepted...... no heads of agreement that we know of...... there were some discussions (how detailed we do not know) and a possible exchange of correspondence. All parties likely to involved (SISU, CCFC, Council, Charity) have all said there has been nothing recent by way of even discussions.

Take it from me a deal was on the cards, exactly what who knows but Dulieu scuppered it. I have heard said he wanted to stay on as chairman or some capacity, anyway thats gone now also heard he fed the SISU higher-archy with bull. We will find out one dayThere is no evidence that any deal was nearly done ..... no due diligence was done ..... no offer accepted...... no heads of agreement that we know of...... there were some discussions (how detailed we do not know) and a possible exchange of correspondence.

Your maths ain't that good mate KD went about 15 weeks ago not months and how do you know they haven't been in touch ? Oh i forgot Tim Fisher says they haven't
I stand corrected on my dates not maths ......... how do you know they have or is that the same as the chinese buying the club in two weeks time ...... remind me when that was ?
As for TF well no not where i got my info but then again i am open to the possibility that he might be correct.
