Witch bar? Ahhhh, so that's how he made his money.

After he's bought the club will he turn back into a toad?

Can’t be the real deal nowhere near enough
pusbccfc said:
What if he goes to Hoffman, offers him the cash to add on to the bid they put in earlier this year?

Would SISU sell for say £20million plus the add ons Hoffman offered?


It's a scenario that would happen if any of us on here won £120m on the Euro Millions. None of us would really know how to take over the club, but we may part with some of our money to help buy the club up front.

if I won £120 million+ after making the family secure for life sisu, toxic Tim, Boddy and Hornby would be history within a month, now I don’t know how genuine this Evans guy is but if he is my guess he is fronting others or trying to attract similarcwell heeled supporters to get this lot out, going to need considerably more than what Hoffman and his consortium have offered. Their bid seems to have petered out now.

So have our current owners. The very nature of a hedge fund is to gamble. Whether that be on project premier league or judicial reviews. TBF to this guy he does at least seem to be able to make a gamble come of, clearly no business acumen though. Best thing he could have done was talk to Hoffman in the first instance.

Given that it is the club bringing the latest JR and not the owners I would suggest that trying to buy the club is a pointless task anyway until JR has been exhausted and that could be years yet.

Unless you're Wasps RFC and you want to avoid the risk of being forced to pay £30m to the council however likely or not that is.

Absolute non-story.

Not sure why there are a couple of negative comments about Mark Hornby. He’s been caught up in this chancers games through no fault of his own. He is Coventry through and through and works his nuts off -unappreciated for the most part. Some people assume that because he works there he agrees with everything SISU. In all likelihood I’d imagine that wasn’t the case, but that’s just my guess.

Simply to clear out everyone to ensure I have all the bad apples out and start again completely from scratch. I would however allow Mr Hornby a cut price season ticket as thanks for his services.

Please god no!!!
About the only person out there who is capable of buying our beloved CCFC and then running it the same way as SISU. Apart from maybe Grendel and Mr Strange!!!
:stop::stop:

The more I think of this the more it makes me laugh it potentially cry

I can just see it now.
We would be in the Butts playing in front of a crowd of 1500 making our ends meet. Well at least it would be ours !!! ( well actually it wouldn’t)
We would have some of the most creative midfielders you could get at our non league level pinging continuous balls to 3 strikers who haven’t scored a goal between them for 35 games.
With the mantra from the owners to the manager ‘yes we had 60% possession, yes we are top of the shots on goal table. Yes we haven’t conceded for 40 games. Yes we haven’t scored for 30 games. However I stil don’t think weneed a new striker. Get better chances torcthose strikers the goals will come.
Then when the fans get annoyed with the Butts, non league footy and the lack of goals or any form of entertainment. They start to voice their displeasure.

The response from the owner (Nick) will be...

Call yourself a Cov fan if you attack me you are attacking CCFC!!!!

As the advert for the lottery says....
Please please don’t let it be him, or Grendel, or Jonathan Strange)

Have a day off, you seem to have been a little upset since I tried to talk to you about football, you never did reply.

Why would it matter to you? There will still be bbc stats for you to become a football expert from.

It's quite funny really. I can see it now, that football fan who struggles when somebody asks him about match situations they claim to know everything about. It's ok though, they will post paragraph after paragraph without actually still being able to.

Credit where credits due, that’s quite a well constructed and written post for someone who was clearly steaming when they wrote it.

I always like to take a little time out on a Sunday morning to appreciate Saturday night pissed up ramblings.

You’re forgetting one thing though. They’d have given Oggy his marching orders so we’d actually be top of the premier league, reigning FA Cup winners and topping our group in the champions league above Real Madrid, PSG and Bayern Munic. All while residing at the BPA with a capacity of 8K thanks to temporary stands and tickets of £2k a game because it’s supply and demand isn’t it.

If HE calls him a chances, I'll back this Evans and his bid all the way...

Think he's just come out the woodwork so I beg for Hoffman to take over, anyway.
