Lloyd and the temporary CEO

[Burslem Academicals]

So there was no Board meeting friday and no press release monday and there will be no meeting with the fans and shareholders while Lloyd has asked for an extra 24 hours to word the press release....so no change there and a catalogue of lies.

If this deal behind the shareholders backs by a Board of Directors with a vote of no confidence is not a 5 million investment with 1.2 million upfront then along with Bratt and Oliver the acting Chairman Lloyd should resign....

do not forget Lloyd has a vote of no confidence, has already kicked in with the lies and is frankly taking the michael.....thought it was meant to be "Black and Gold untill it's sold" not black and gold untill the old guard change hats and and tell yet more lies.

They simply must open talks with Mark Sims and open the books so that Mark Sims as elected by the shareholders can take control of the club and put an end to this regime...there is 5 million on the doorstep and a plan to take the club forward and if this deal cannot match it then it is not in the best interests of the club.

The big concern is that a new owner and CEO will find a club that has sold off the catering,pouring rights,hospitality and pre-seasons with even more debt and this secret underhand deal could further damage the value of the club to a new owner with many strings attached and like the council loan

a built in mechanism to make it as difficult as possible for any possible new owner.

This deal might only be 400k and the 24.9% the Board need to silence the voice of the shareholders such that they can never be challenged again via an EGM.....but even if it is under 24.9% it could effect the chance of other investment and the future of the club and must be put to the shareholders

along with any other investment offers....if it does not match the Mark Sims and Mo Chaudry offer to each individually invest 24.9% which is 1.2 million upfront then the deal is not acceptable...the shareholders must decide the future of the club not a set of small time disgraced Directors with a vote of no confidence.

This press release had better be the real deal and at least equal to the rejected 5 million investment with 1.2 million upfront or this vote of no confidence Board of Directors are not acting in the best interests of the shareholders and need to be challenged legally.

Either it is the deal of a lifetime or they must now finally resign.

But what if they have signed and sealed a deal we cant get out of.

[Jimmy]

This 24 hour deadline, does it mean we will not get a press release until Wednesday BA......Is your sourse in the Sentinel or local radio excuse my ignorance....??

[Burslem Academicals]

Jimmy the Board meeting was supposed to be friday,didn't happen,there will not be the promised meeting with the fans and shareholders,the press release was supposed to be monday.....didn't Lloyd reply via text to yourself that the press release will be tuesday now instead....Lloyd is probably having difficulty with the wording....the source is Lloyd the great pretender via that text to yourself.

[Jimmy]

Cheers BA that has cleared things up.......By the way Mike Lloyd gave me his number after i emailed him over the proposed 'deal' a while back.......I am prepared to ask him any question you want....He always tends to reply.

Can't people just have a bit of patience!

 

The current team is easily good enough to go up.

 

Obviously the short and long term future investment as well as ticket prices are key agenda items to address, but investment isn't desperately required until promoted.

GD

 

I agree with some of your points, however I still think we need to add two quality signings, 100k a year players. Then we will have a real chance of top 3

[Goal Drought]

Nobody would disagree about difference two quality signings would make

With respect GD how do you define patience......2/3 weeks or 8/9 years......

[Burslem Academicals]

That is the nightmare scenario.....since the EGM they have already sold off the catering,pouring rights,hospitality,pre-seasons and there can't be much left to interest a possible new owner...this deal could also have many strings attached.

Remember all the above actions were committed by a Board of Directors with no authority or mandate who got a vote of no confidence from the shareholders and should not be signing deals behind the shareholders backs...

the old guard inside and outside of the Boardroom were a 28% "cartel" that

operated a closed shop bought the Broxap shareholding and were seemingly

about to give away equity for what was only a sponsorship deal inorder to gain another 24.9% of the vote....the plan seemed to be to survive the EGM at all costs then to secure over 50% so that they can never ever be challenged again at an EGM...and not to be overlooked in all this that still despite a new Director being elected by shareholders nobody has seen the books....just how have they got away with preventing a democratically elected Director from taking a position in the Boardroom by refusing to comply with requests inorder to complete routine due dilligence...it is a disgrace.

[Tosh]

I think people's patience went a long time ago, it's been Groundhog Day for the past few years...

 

I think if this deal actually happens and it's not on par with offers that have been rejected then a lot of fans are going to be dejected and will just give up, it's all become very boring and tedious and a lot have even gone past caring!

Difficult to say but if the teams winning that certainly buys time.

 

Three hotel pre match stopovers already, pre season trip to America and a key loan signing recently made suggest that both the situation is far from dire and that the first team isn't been neglected.

[fairportnick]

But what if they have signed and sealed a deal we cant get out of.

 

Come on , what businessman would invest heavily (ie enough to make a difference) in a business regularly losing £300k per annum (with the full support of its customers) and has now fallen out with a large proportion of its customer base. Logic suggests that they cant survive more than a few months. STARVE THE *******S OUT.

Logistically with overnight stays this season our travel expensives are going to be very steep......But the fixtures were out well before the season so i expect they would have been costed a while back......I am happy for the team to be winning and hopefully we will gain promotion BUT it is not showing in home game attendancies. Lets hope this Boardroom gets its a rse into gear and sort out this long standing mess and ASAP.....
