Chairman Takeover now Old Car Chat

[Essexyellows]

...but which Monday ?

On form sir, on form.

 

[werthersoriginal]

ECYellow has basically confirmed it's gone through and will be announced this coming week. Think he said Monday morning would be the first announcement.

What’s gone through? Are we being taken over by Richard Branson?

Nah, Juve have finally bought us.

New owners, yes but absolutely no way a new stadium will ever get planning permission so whilst the new owners may present flashy plans for a new stadium try not to get you're hopes up.

Don't you think the potential new owners have determined that there is a possibility of a deal to be done? They think different to you.

You should start a thread to discuss a potential new stadium............*


* only kidding

Yes - they aren’t here to just own and run a league one football team and they certainly aren’t here to try and buy the current stadium.

How involved will Uncle Horst be moving forward?

 

[Tomox]

Hopefully we can get something from the owners next week with regards to what the grand plan is!

God I hope it's an exciting announcement, after an awful 18 months, we need something to smile and get excited about

I presume Monday is just a takeover announcement rather than takeover and stadium?

With all due respect, these people are millionaires or billionaires, and subsequently will be so far ahead of the ball regarding such things that presenting flashy plans with no substance, is not their game. They will be so far ahead with their thinking, and taken every eventually into account. That is why having been around the club for a while, they will know our situation, and realise fruitless flashy plans won't be the order of the day.

 

[Essexyellows]

But what about the season ticket prices.................. and why haven`t we built the South Midlands Wembley yet???


And what about the flipping cess pits???

What point is a takeover if they don't come out and say what ambition and plans they have?

 

[Carpy]

Yeah, but would you believe them or demand more proof?

"Fruitless flashy plans"


Phrase of the day for me, Brian.

 

[Paul Cannell]

I like fruitless flashy plans: airport in the sea, buses that don't work, a bridge garden, tunnel under the Irish Sea a moon shot to save the world from covid. They would be the sort of fruitless flashy plans I would make. Mad, eh?

 

[Coffin dodger]

Is Boris leading the consortium?

Is Boris leading the consortium?

On second thoughts he can't be otherwise Essexyellows would be more ITK
