The grapevine is starting to buzz with stories regarding the end of SISU and the dawn of a new beginning. Dear old Brinner has some info just wonder if it compares to what i have just heard. Share us yours and I'll share mine.

Well he's met one of Hoffmans investors, who certainly sounds like a much more approachable and straight-forward bloke than any of our present board-and with a sense humour too. He'll be needing it!

From what I know it's that "things could be about to get very interesting".

Sorry, that's not much help. I'm sure Brinner can be more "open" than me

I am keeping my powder dry because if you post a "this is what I've heard" thread you get ridiculed, but I will say that come Christmas we could be able to compete financially with anyone in this division and a number in the Prem.

eleanor - yesterday you were talking about businessman paying for loanees - today you have this - you obviously do a lot between sunday evening and monday morning

The truth is that any investors will wait for admin (or at least do a sisu and wait until we are minutes from admin)

So many rumours on these threads. Let's just hope one turns out to be true. I've been a city fan for 19 years and have never been so disheartened as this season. If one of these supposed investors ever reads these thread then please do step in and take the club back to where it should be!

The business man loan story is 100% true, i can assure you.
What i have heard today, if true, will make us all feel a lot better soon. How can i wet your appetites ? mmm. One of the main investors apparently is just about the richest man in Hong Kong !

And what is 83 year old Li Ka-Shing looking to get from owning CCFC? I love the ring to his surname. Ka-Ching.

I'd take any of them... a few are on the older side although Sir Ka-shing Li is welcome to leave his fortune to us in his will...

with the greatest respect if you have something to say then say it. Please stop playing games. If you are proven to be right what have you got to be worried about being ridiculed. You can go told you so.

Bit of a cheat to have three guys as Hong Kong's second most wealthy person isn't it? Unless they're midgets and all three make one real person, in which case I'd like to apologise to the Kwoks and their dad Bert.

Is there ANYONE really daft enough and willing enough to invest (Lose) 30 mill because that’s what we need at least. Someone with enough dough to buy at least half of the ground and clear debts and invest in the team.
If there is then great but i won’t hold my breath.
