Im hearing Ashley as our owner is done and dusted and announced in the summer? If so, no deal required.

Heard the same. Not claiming to be ITK but that's what I heard.
Could be absolute bollocks.

And all 3 of us have ultimately heard it from the same person. (I know too many people in real life on here)

A fair few on here pretended to be ITK and said he’d be taking over before Christmas - it’s probably just nonsense.

Not quite the same people this time though. Though I still have a hard time believing it

None of it makes very much sense

Sorry that’s what I meant. As things happen things may start to but at the moment it’s a wait and see. However for the Fraser group to have kept completely quiet seems very unlikely

If Ashley offers King more than he paid then he’s made a profit and reunited the club with the stadium again. It can make sense.

Apart from the club wouldn't actually own the stadium.

How does it make sense for Ashley?

Surely the question is how did king purchasing the club make sense when he hadn’t an agreement in place after May to
Play anywhere

Get the club into the top flight and sell club and ground for a big profit

Why does it make sense for him to let someone else buy the club first and then sell it to him at a higher price?

Well it doesn’t which is what I’ve said plenty of times

Perhaps he wanted to be the subject of a daft song

King has been very much in the public eye, at the games, at the U’21s… personally I don’t think this sell to Ashley is going to happen. I don’t think King is a front at all. Would be a bit embarrassing for him being so active in the public eye to sell after 6 months, wouldn’t make sense.

Rumours are rumours and while they are fun to get on the bandwagon of, I personally don’t think this one’s a goer

Does he have to buy the debt now ?

Presumably? If not, why does the deal make sense for King?

Potentially as he can make money from the fund transfer. No one even knows if he’s paid anything at all

There's no incentive for Ashley to buy the club. He's in a win-win situation. If we don't go up anytime soon the stadium will still tick along making cash for him and if we do go up then he can either retain the stadium and make a lot more cash from the increased attendances/rent or cash in by selling it as a premier league stadium to whoever.

Is this a joke post?

Can you image SISU investors if by some miracle, our form continued and we sneaked into and won the play offs.
King really would have pulled off the deal of the year/decade.

The investors would I assume still get paid as the funds surely have effectively been absorbed into another hedge fund

No one actually knows now who even owns the shares in Covcity co

Grendel · Mar 7, 2023

One thing I never even noticed is the accounts suggest we paid lease costs of £1.3m last season for playing at the Arena

Do we lease anything else?

Seems a huge figure for a licence given it’s the best deal ever according to Boddy - if the FG are looking to make this higher that’s a problem

Were we leasing Ryton off the owners?

possibly but the total charge the prior year was £445k

i think there was a St Andrews penalty, that may have been included

Penalty for what? I’m sure Boddy said there was a break clause? Seems to me we paid an absurd amount for a non protective licence and the narrative suggests we want another licence deal as opposed to a lease which frankly is absurd

oldskyblue58 · Mar 7, 2023

Wouldn't there be rent to pay at higgs centre for the academy

Would also guess that previous year we only paid for the pitch use because stands etc shut due to lockdown?

Plus there is the rent for club shop
