SC Statement - Keith Ryder and discussions

[Fosse69]

As tomorrow is the last day of the month, the deal happens in July or we goto Plan B. So we may not know until August whether Ryder has dealt or left.

They haven't said anything because they are not told anything. They have been treated with contempt as MTs earlier tweet has alluded to.

 

Exactly my point !!

[billywhizz]

Starting to panic!!!!!

[boomer's vet]

"Now or never"? Please think before you make the statement without this now or never attitude. Remember, he is the only option that we have, and we are ****ed if he decides to lose interest.

 

Being in administration was never going to be a bed of roses. What did you expect?

I want my season ticket money back!

Port Vale Supporters’ Club has been told that tomorrow is D-Day for preferred bidder Keith Ryder’s bid to take control.

 

Supporters’ Club Chairman Pete Williams this evening spoke to Bob Young, of administrators Begbies Traynor, as speculation continued to mount over delays to the deal.

 

Mr Williams said: “Bob Young has told me that he has given an ultimatum to Mr Ryder this evening. He has told him that the deal must go through tomorrow (July 31) or the administrators will revert to what Mr Young called ‘Plan B’.

 

“Mr Young said this would involve giving a period of exclusivity to another potential buyer for Port Vale who has been waiting in the wings. He assured me this party had no links to the previous discredited board of directors.

 

“We at the Supporters’ Club have worked very hard to clarify the position regarding this complex deal for fans who are justifiably angry and concerned at the delays and the lack of information they have been given.

 

“We at the Supporters’ Club have attempted to contact Mr Ryder today but he has not got back to us as yet.

 

“Mr Young told me, however, that Mr Ryder was relaxed and said he was confident that the deal could be completed without a problem tomorrow.

 

“I sincerely hope that this is the case. We are just two weeks away from the start of the new season and time is fast running out.”

 

Mr Williams added: “All Port Vale supporters want is for their club to be out of administration, to avoid a further points deduction and to be able to concentrate on on-the-field matters for a change.

 

“As soon as we have any further information we will, of course, update supporters. If the deal does go through tomorrow then we will call a supporters’ meeting as soon as possible.

 

“Whatever happens in the coming days and weeks it is our belief at the Supporters’ Club that there are serious questions to be answered over the handling of the takeover, the poor communication from all parties, the shabby treatment of fans and the status of investigations into former directors of Port Vale.”

If they have doubts about KR then why have they given him this much time. They should have pulled the plug weeks ago.

 

Looking more and more likely we will enter the new season in limbo and with a very small, weak squad. Can't wait for Mickys reaction to this news.

One one hand doesnt sound good, but then says Ryder is confident it will go through tomorrow no problem so in turn suggests he is still hoping to get the club. Big day tomorrow!

[Andyregs]

Jesus, yet young still has time to appoint dean glover as a coach? What on earth is going on.

[SuperValiant1876]

I don't think Plan B will bail us out, he is too busy doing Bulmers Cider promotions.

[thevalewarrior]

:/ confused, happy about deadline, nervous, excited, scared, mixed emotions is an understatement. :(

[Valiant Haze]

No mention of any new kit?!!....

People, please don't keep quoting the statement as it makes the thread impossible to read!
