JF 694 Posted November 27, 2016 FenwayFrank wrote the following post at 27/11/2016 10:10 AM:How about decent sensible buyers ? RedBull won''t be the slightest bit interested in buying us, so where are the suitable buyers you all seem to know about ? Why''s that then? Recently they have been linked with moves for Forest, Leeds, Swindon and now MK Dons. Explain why they wouldn''t be interested in us? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,289 Posted November 27, 2016 Signs when to give up ownership? Is it when your personal political and religious beliefs - coupled with an obstinate and arrogant attitude - all mixed in with a large dash of nepotism and cronyism. Has a great influence on how you personally perceive is the right way to run a business/football club.....? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

93vintage 16 Posted November 27, 2016 Selling to an outside ''investor'' is probably NOT going to happen. If fans are going to lobby for a change in ownership then why not lobby for a portion of Delia''s shares under the new trust model?The club has gone up in value many times since our current owners invested. How about Nephew Tom gets the equivalent in shares of Auntie Delia and Uncle Winnie''s original outlay, and the fans get control of the remainder?Delia and Winnie don''t profit, their profit in effect would be transferred to the fans.At least this way fans would get to act as custodians of their club and hence get more of a say in how it''s run.
