Hoffman & Elliott meting i saw today! OLD THREAD ALERT (1 Viewer)

Walking Bird · Apr 28, 2011

I was attending a work colleagues leaving lunch at the Varsity by Warwick Uni.
First Elliott arrived, a couple of minutes later Hoffman came in & about 10 minutes later 2 men who i didn't recognise came in. One of these men was oriental.
I went to the bar & heard Hoffman saying to the oriental man "Thats why the stadium is owned like it is".
meeting went on for about an hour when they all left.

Hoffman is the guy in the dark jacket

They are Oriental in Coventry, they must be wealthy. The Hoff has business interests in Trinity Mirror, could this be the source of some info that is reported?

I love how you filmed it. I thought it was a piss take to start off with!

Did you get curly fries?

Walking Bird · Apr 28, 2011

I had tried to take photos but they either blurred or Elliott stared right at me!
So i tried to casually film it as if i was using my phone for something else also Elliott was at this point sitting behind the pillar.

I wonder what the Varsity Snack of millionaires is?

Hopefully it is a bit of a plan from far east investment, maybe something is on the horizon.

You should have planted a bugging device on Hoffman!

and what exactly does that mean???

CovKingChris · Apr 28, 2011

haha, you filmed it. Legend

paul1978 · Apr 28, 2011

well if this is all some sort of wind up and joke then its not good

kg82 · Apr 28, 2011

How would it be a wind, he's just informing us what he's seen and actually filmed it!! It's not as if he's saying they were talking about this, that and t'other! All we can actually do is see if anything comes of it.

Walking Bird · Apr 28, 2011

I've just realised i don't know how to spell "Meeting"

The Reverend Skyblue · Apr 28, 2011

The Chinese looking men were deliverying from the Chinese restaurant next door.Joe had a number 63 with black bean sauce, and the hoff a number 45 with prawn crackers.

ccfcway · Apr 28, 2011

true or not, 100% made m smile, so hats off to the OP.

Chineese guy - "i wish to buy the club"
Hoff - "no probs, where do you want to meet ?"
Chineese guy "somewhere classy"
Hoff - "Nando's ?"
Chinesse - "not that classy"
Hoff - "ok, see ou at the Varsity at 2pm"

Don't think he bothered as he was the one leaving!

AmyandAdamsDad · Apr 28, 2011

Just think they could be over for the Royal wedding, just stop off in Cov & buy a little football club

bamalamafizzfazz · Apr 28, 2011

Regis87 · Apr 28, 2011

Regis87 · Apr 28, 2011

And I think we should have a statue of Joe Elliott next to the Jimmy Hill one . Again working tirelessly behind the scenes .
Btw has anyone tried " the dogs dinner " at the Varsity that is served in a dogs bowl ?

is it possible an offer has been layed down to sisu and the hoff and elliot were asking for players to be offered contracts and a new manager to be assigned by sisu (to make it more stable so contracts are likely to be signed), so that the players have not found clubs elsewhere during the time it will take for the club to be taken over. its possible it could take a little while which means the players contracts will have expired and they will have left by the time they take over the club.

Tell more, what have you heard?! My own long-running conspiracy (good) is that Thorn is their man, Hoffmans' quite a long way down the path (not exactly trying to hide anything), and the contract offers today are no coincidence. I may be wrong, but you have to dream.

The vids awesome..that's DEFFO Joe,unmistakeable! And looking at pics of GH it does look like him, too..yowza. 4 days off work, Mark Thomas gig 2mo, Thorns got the job...is this going to be like the Dallas shower scene? It can't be real...maybe the vid is an incredibly elaborate hoax involving a Joe Elliott lookalike? They don't get much demand for him at the agency, but every so often...

Mark Cooper · Apr 28, 2011

Calm down it's only JJ Dinsha ffs, oh and the person who took the video? you fcuking stalker :wave:

Walking Bird · Apr 28, 2011

Is it my fault that they happened to walk into the boozer i was in?
Why not get the scoop before the Telegraph.
