OxVox and Tiger meeting notes out

[myles]

That’s why I asked the question? It seemed an odd allegation to throw out. I’m not asking u to prove anything I just wondered what its in relation to. I’ve asked Colin as well but no reply. As for them not answering ur questions in the original thread, they weren’t actually questions, but a list of things that have happened in the past and people he has known. I’m sure if u list out ur actual questions and send them in (as they have offered) they will ask them and get the answers back to u. I got a feeling u won’t believe the answers anyway

Firstly, it was carefree who said OxVox hadn’t answered my questions.

Secondly, I think you’re taking “questions” rather literally. My original post on Tiger and co raised a number of issues and concerns regarding their tenure at Reading. That clearly raises questions about what their plans would be at Oxford and, in this context, “answering the questions” means dispelling those concerns, surely? Has anything been published which does that?

Finally, my initial post on Tiger and Co focused quite heavily on his links to others who were also involved at Reading. Your line was very much that I shouldn’t worry about this as there was no evidence that any of these individuals would be involved at Oxford. The clear inference here was that if these individuals WERE involved, then there were grounds for concern. Now we have confirmation that Jack Srisumrid IS involved, do you still believe there are no reasons to be concerned?

The major news in all that is that Tiger was in discussions back in November. Here we are in February and what are his plans?

I know it’s not like me to be pedantic, but the notes actually show that they were in contact with Tiger’s group as early as the start of October. And at that point they were emailing Jack Srisumrid! This is one of the two with clear links to Shinawatra who is clearly a pillar of respectability.....

Well he’s paid for dickie and branagan, used his contacts to bring in loans from Man City and Chelsea, and made big money offers for Moore and Cole before he even owned the club, so a pretty decent start.

My interpretation of what was said was that only Dickie was "his". But its a guess.

I can’t speak for anyone else on here, but I was really hoping for some proper meaningful insight into the plans our new owner has for the club. Taking us forward was something that DE stepped back from. I needed to hear a clear and definitive statement from our new owner and I am afraid that I never got it.
In fact, we are worse off information wise now than we were beforehand.
Because of this vacuous press conference, the rumour mill keeps on turning. Ffs, I ain’t no businessman, but when I buy summat, I can tell you why I bought it and what the f**k i’m gonna do with it.

Many thanks for posting the link to the article I was referring to, very helpful.

I can't wait to see Tiger's bow tie whizzing round in celebration of a goal!

If you intend on spending big to own the stadium, the best players or best manager do you think it is wise to say so?

DE has done extremely well negotiating the best deals for the clubs in the transfer market and that was always on the basis that we don't need to sell and will only pay fair honest prices.

If Tiger comes in shouting that stadium ownership is crucial and he is going to chuck money at players to go up the leagues we will end up like Bury and FK will just up the price of the stadium.

He has identified the Oxford brand as a way of maximising one of the clubs revenue streams which makes perfect sense.

And, fortunately, there's no recent history of investors of dubious repute getting involved in football to exploit the global cachet of the "Oxford" brand.......

I was always led to believe u would never see two identical snowflakes

The problem occurs when these snowflakes clump together!

Travel chaos due to myles and myles of snowflakes!!!

Give the guy a chance. He has spent HIS money investing, he is not asking for you to do so too. It could go well or tits up, we don't know, but if he has friends who want to join him and invest in the club, then we can enjoy the ride.
He's investing in a team, he's not some git who will asset strip and leave us with nothing.

When BMW decided to stop supporting Rover but keep the Mini and develop the brand one of the reasons they kept the Oxford plant instead of the Longbridge plant was the name 'OXFORD'. From then on BMW stopped using the word 'Cowley'

Pretty sure any supporter perturbed by the involvement in the deal of ‘Jack’ - a 30 in bit of research raises eyebrows and difficult questions - does not make him a snowflake.

Not to mention Tiger’s and his pals’ record at Reading.

Clearly it is too much to ask that the local media or ‘independent’ supporters’ group ask difficult questions of Tiger and Jack instead of swallowing it all down like good chaps.

Clearly it isn’t even worth wondering why said ‘independant’ Group chose to keep Jack’s involvement quiet for weeks

I find your triumphalism bizarre. And your haranguing of fans with justified concerns likewise.
