Tiger and 'comparisons'?

[MJB]

Although Nick Cusack had a better long term career after us.

Matt Murphy is simultaneously a dark horse for both our All Time Best and Worst XI’s.

Hang on! Are you telling me that the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' group you enrolled me into isn't real? Disappointed, very disappointed.

I am Groot

Scotch egg you’ve got my vote. To work that out from a pseudonym demonstrates that you are the greatest investigator on this forum.

He did actually post what his real name is!

As an exiled fan who only knows the likes of jem etc though their names on here and social media. Can someone please try and summarise this thread?

Not asking for much, are you!?

Since the announcement of the takeover (and for sometime before) there have been questions over the role OxVox had in all of this. This has been little things like OxVox and DE being too cosy, to more serious allegations of a dereliction of duty or that some OxVox members would somehow gain from the takeover. What and how this would arise has not been mentioned.

There have been a number of questioned asked of OxVox (and Jem in particular) from Myles (ex OxVox committee member) and The Hawk (Investigative Journalist) although many others have also asked questions or requested additional information. In addition to questioning OxVox questions have been asked about Tiger, what his plans are, where is the money coming from and is anyone else involved. These are issues that are held by many but again have predominantly been expressed most strongly by Myles, The Hawk and Charlie (part of the Lenegan regime and behind previous bid to buy the club).

OxVox released a statement saying about a meeting that took place in November between them, DE and Tiger (and Tigers mate Jack). Takeover talk was at the early stage then and OxVox agreed to respect a request to allow this to run its course before being made public. As a consequence, some including the three previously mentioned) have questioned the independence of OxVox. Some of this has been put across out of frustration at not knowing what is going on, but some has been very personal and directed mainly at Jem and some of the other committee members.

Jem started this thread after getting tired of having all the talk being one sided. He spoke about the discussions that took place, and that more have happened since then. He explains that more information will come out to answer many of the questions being raised and that OxVox has nothing to hide from its committee members. He has then responded to concerns about the Tiger ownership to say that there are concerns with any organisation and that those in glasshouses shouldn't throw stones etc. The implication is that Myles was less than honest with information disclosure whilst on the OxVox committee and that Charlie has some business dealings that could be seen as unsavoury.

More counter allegations of OxVox failing it's members of being too close to Tiger/DE etc followed with Colin then snapping and making more explicit claims directed at Myles. This was then deleted so I won't go into details. The rest of the thread has pretty much been about allegations being directed at Tiger, Jack, DE and OxVox but not to any degree where the average poster really knows what is going on. This has caused a lot of frustration with many members (myslef included) and effectively said "put up or shut up" with all of these allegations.

The result is basically 150 posts where we have still learnt very little. No one really knows how much money is being put into the club, and by whom? What our short, medium and long term goals are, who will be our manager and what the backroom structure will be. We are led to believe that there is something fishy going on, but I honestly couldn't say what. It may be money laundering, it may be asset stripping, it may be some vanity project that is doomed to fail. No one knows, but many are guessing.

Hopefully, this week will put to bed most of the rubbish on here with a manager brought in, a clear business plan provided and an OxVox meeting on Friday. We will then be able to go onto far more constructive threads such as "Nick Cusack or Matt Murphy? Who was better?"

Hope this in some way helps, but even I'm not sure if this is right or not!!

Damned good effort, sir

I can't believe I have just wasted 15 minutes of my life skimming this thread. Its all bile, yet we are all supposed to be on the same side and want the same thing.

ACRA is the Singapore equivalent of Companies House. Singapore is where Tiger's companies are registered.
