Looks like a sensible bid to me. SISU keep the only thing of value left other than players. The consortium don't overpay by too much leaving funding to take us forward. SISU don't waste any more money on something they don't have a clue about running.
But Joy will hold out expecting much more. Why won't she at least meet to negotiate an exit? Maybe she knows they will just walk away.
apparently one of the facebook groups has people on it who are adamant the 4th bid has gone in, not on it myself so don't know but that's the talk at work by people who are on it.
I am not saying it will happen but if it gives Sisu a way out at a price they can live with then it will be done once that point has been reached.This won't happen now. This is so demoralizing for us. We are literally stuck in the sisu prison and joy is the only one with the keys.

That's the key. If Hoff is saying CCFC, or the bits he wants to buy, is worth £20m she'll want the £20m now.If this really is a £20 million bid as its being suggested then offer the £20 million now - I think she'd talk then.
Your analogy doesn't work for me. A football club is emotionally owned by the community and city. Financially supported by the fans - SISU are mere custodians of CCFC. Yes is has cost them money - but remember they picked it up for a song.Another pointless bid that's conveniently leaked across social media.
Regarding the view it's being considered as it took a while to reject I suspect the truth is that Seppella took a few days to look at it and then just said no.
It's ridiculous to suggest it's an insult she's not meeting to discuss either. As people like house analogies would you meet with someone who offered a tiny fraction of what you believe the house is worth

Hoffman really is a bastard trying to get the club out of sisu's grubby hands isn't he?! He really should just offer untold millions and that be the end of it!Another pointless bid that's conveniently leaked across social media.

the worry is that this means they want to hold onto the club? But why, it's a fucking basket case.
Would you pay £20 million up front ???

From her point of view why would she meet to discuss. The three bids so far, each increasing by a small amount in actual guaranteed funds, have been well short of her expectation. Why would she waste time on it given the high probability that the figure expected can not be provided.
Do they need to sell, is there any current financial hurt for SISU or ARVO?
Firstly to give them an inclination of what that figure actually is.
Who knows what Gary Hoffman is actually capable of pulling off with his business connections.
That's what most business people would do. In her position. Keep that door ajar.
It could keep the relationship between her and people with money who are interested cordial. Everything changes in business so who knows what is around the corner. Why upset them either rudeness.
Also this is lifelong fans trying to bid for the club. She has personally met other fans to discuss her plans for the club.
Why not meet a few fans who are that passionate they wish to throw their money away.
Also we are reportedly under consideration at the moment from another consortium. Amongst others dealing with our owners could be perceived as a big negative compared to other options.
Finally it is the decent respectful and proper way to behave. Even if it is just a video conference call.
Refusing to meet shows a lack of class, in my book. Which if very different to my experience of her.
That's the key. If Hoff is saying CCFC, or the bits he wants to buy, is worth £20m she'll want the £20m now.
Is the club realistically worth £20M? The assets are: Ryton £6M, Current Players £3M?, Transferred Players Future % £0 - £5M?, Good Will ....ha, ha!No but if someone tells me they are offering £20 million and that's their valuation I'd want it now.

Are you surprised?
When have Seppala, Fisher etc ever shown any respect to the fans? or shown they give a shit? They despise us, and probably see us as insignificant peasants.
Then he's way out. There's no way if you total up what SISU would get if they sold every player they could get a fee for and sold Ryton it would be a total of £2m.He's saying it's worth £2M
I wouldn't say they despised us personally, that would mean they've given us the slightest hint of consideration.
My own personal experience I contacted them to vent my frustration at they way they were running the club and I ended up meeting both of them. I disagreed at the time and still disagree with the way they are doing it. Also things they stated have not happened.
However they met me face to face and debated.
So I respect them for that.
So not meeting the consortium I find strange.
