Another Rumor

[the old bycars tea bar]

if this investment falls within the 24.9% can the board just accept it without the shareholders say so? if the answer is yes which i believe it is

 

where does this leave mo and mark and the egm?

[Guest Debbie]

Factually incorrect on many levels so probaly came from Bratt!! He has also said they provided the Texans with everything they had asked for, that is another lie as they didn't provide them with half the stuff or have the clubs financial controller present as requested.

 

How did you know? Did anything specific give it away?

That's what I was wondering. Will the shareholders have any final say in all of this?

Are they Vale fans though?

Is this Bratty's trump card that Robbie H was blabbering on about last week?

[Howjy04]

600k exceeds the 24.9% rule does it not.?I wonder why Bratt suggested that they would put it to the shareholders to change the rule?So it looks like the board cannot win with this one unless 75% vote for it.Of course it could be a donation with no shares sold.===

I'd hate to think our board were going to accept a bid from an American (why port vale? Are they fans?) rather than a life long vale fan who is part of a much larger deal, and is English!

Hardly a trump card is it if it's only £600k when at leats twice that amount is on the table with more to follow?

This would be Bill's last chance at clinging onto power, stop the sale of sares to Mo and Mark, let this person in on the proviso they vote in favour of the board at the EGM.

 

I could see it getting very nasty if this happened

And the right colour for some of the board.

Anything that involves Bratt and co staying on the board will signal the end of PVFC IMHO.

It would also prove that self preservation is more important than the club.

 

If it is the guy who is arranging the US trip, Bill will say he has justified his commitment to the club by doing this.

I agree Tim, but they don't care.

 

They would prefer to have 3,000 less on the gate and kill the club than sell to anybody that wants to control there investment.

Can't be the Texans who were here last November.

 

In the car park at Accrington Jackson completely dismissed them, their business model and the bloke behind the consortium, Billy Davies' brother.

 

He also said that Derby County warned them not to do business with them.

 

Why is there always someone warning the board not to do business with a prospective investor? That excuse is getting as tired as "we're in talks with another consortium". :(

Starve the *******s out.
