Not sure if this has been mentioned but it is ironic that SISU, who will not reveal their investors in CCFC, have stated,
"We also understand the bid provided no proof of funds, or transparency of investors – the criteria by which it is understood Sisu would consider any bid"
(this is from the Les Reid article, the Sean Spicer of CCFC)

Wrong. If the golden share goes it moves to another club and happens only when this club ceases to exist

While I agree it is not their to sell the F L could say the new owners are not fit people (do not thlnk they would SUSI got it twice) notice you did not question my other points. I think no deal and it leaves them a very tricky situation

Any extra money before they set sail is all good to them

Not even that, even if they bought the club for £500k debt free and then sold off Stevenson for £1m and Willis for £250k they are laughing aren't they? Especially as without any interest payments going out they could be quite close to running at an actual profit.

Maybe you martcov grendel and ccfc92 should put a consortium together as you all seem to know what it would take to get rid of the sisu scum. At the very least you should be advising any potential bidder.

It would suggest they don't feel the opening gambit was good enough. Does that put the ball back in the bidders court? Who knows...

Personally I think she's been told by Tim to put something out to discredit it for whatever reason.

We just got in from checking our new house and was hoping on a 2nd bit of good news.

But no. Everything looks civil on here from the past couple of hours. Not even anything on the pregnant fish or black polar bears.

Even Nick seems to be getting on with the majority!

No "the club is not for sale" in that statement more like come back and try again . No one expected any first offer to be accepted but I think there is hope .The BAD publicity is starting to take it's toll.

Not read the thread.
I'm guessing those who actively want Sisu Out are pretty happy about a bid from local business men
Those, ahem, who apologise for Sisu on a regular basis, arent happy at all and are turning over all sorts of stones and moans.....

Me Im happy an offer for the club is hitting the media and we can have a whiff of getting rid of the useless scumbags.

just seen on twitter Sisu turned down an offer of 500k. Sorry but I laughed at the low amount. Surely Sisu are not budging for less then about 10m. only a ball park figure from me. they don't really need to sell for anything less while JR2 still current. am I being stupid?

For all the arguments for and against, all the critique and questioning of the offer, all the speculation around what it might take for SISU to accept - can we clarify one thing; literally nobody wants SISU to stay or are apologists or fan boys or whatever nonsense is going round.

We all have different views and stances on SISU/Wasps/CCC, but surely everyone on here realises in an ideal world none of us would have SISU here.

As soon as people's responses include something along those lines, their point becomes moot in my mind.

Due to transparency Hasselhoffman has had to disclose that Kitt the car from Knight Rider is also an investor.
