Lanterne Rouge Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Like a load of fractious toddlers chucking their dummies when they don`t like something someone`s said. Mostly because they know it`s the truth but don`t want to believe it. I`m happy to let them carry on with their tantrums and playground insults all the way to Conference South.

It was OK to have a bit of fun at Nicholas' expense and if you remember I was winding you lot up a little when we all thought the new owners would have the financial muscle to complete the UWE deal and begin to give City a run for your money. But, starting with the excruciating BBC Bristol feature made in Jordan, as the months have passed the evidence has mounted that things are not as they should be. There is no point in typing the list of signals all over again save to say that from the "landing lights" comment by Stephen Hamer to the carpet cleaning and new curtains press release just recently it's obvious that the blundering around is continuing and people who are serious about what they do, such as the Governors of UWE and manager Darrell Clarke, will not put up with it for much longer. Unless they can find a benefactor among their friends in the Middle East who is willing to part with tens of millions for the privilege of owning a league 1 football club I fear our owners will be faced with the dilemma of either taking a substantial financial hit themselves or destroying an institution which has graced*** Bristol for the past 134 years.

Exactly. I'm trying to think of something nice to say, I've got a few Gas mates who apart from their football club they support are decent people, but deep down this is how I truly feel. If they were a bit more realistic about Wally when he first arrived and his (non) actions since instead of treating him like some demi-god, I would sympathise a tiny bit 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No emotional investment, second choice after all, and a Chelsea fan. My comparison to Michael Knighton was apt ( no not the Kit one ) , Knighton went on the pitch at Old Trafford doing keep upies , before the sale had gone through, just loved the attention. This bloke is the same , loves the limelight but has made no real improvement. Gone cap in hand for backing and looks like others have seen through the plans, wouldn't be surprised if he sells up, if he can find someone to pay his price. As an aside, didn't realise the a certain Mr Oyston was approached for backing when the original backers pulled out of buying ManUtd, now that could have been funny. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coombsy Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Coombsy is one of the biggest morons on OTIB. Cant debate with him because he always has to be right and when you actually state facts he just resorts to abuse. Sad really looks like I touch a nerve can't remember being abuseing to him or her never mind the truth will be out soon maybe they will come back and say sorry but I won't hold my breath. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 I think the writings on the wall. Otherwise matters would be moving along at a pace. I think the training ground, the new sponsors entrance and the new carpets and curtains are just Wally's smoke screen to make the proposition more attractive & biding time waiting for the big investment backing from someone else. The plain fact is they haven't got that investment in place. I suspect UWE want assurances and they can't give it. When you look broadly at the figures I believe they are £10M in debt with the high interest loan plus I suspect that they are still in debt in some part to the former directors. There is uncertainty over how they can best liquidise the asset that is the Memorial ground given that it is surrounded by housing in an area where there are loads of independent shops & let's face it the former directors, in my opinion, showed a contemptable disregard for those local businesses and the surrounding area which is why there was so much acrimony towards them. So it would seem that starting from a minus £10M figure you're looking at some serious money spent before any real investment can begin. Hardly an attractive proposition. All this is conjecture on my part but it would seem to add up. I think even the most die hard blue can see the creek and none of them has a paddle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
