Yes in 3 years time, which I think the OP is eluding to.

As usual, Keith, you don't outline the process you'd favour in order to oust them, they're not employees, remember! 😁

[Bert 236]

There is no strategic reason for them staying on other than to be bloody minded

Perhaps he'd use the family Cillit bang method?

And as usual Keith gets the reaction he wants.

Out shopping? Out at another's restaurant? Out and proud? What do you mean Keith?

It’s actually 2 years and 3 months as the agreement to vote the same was as Delia and Michael started in January when the shares were issued.

for clarification, it’s only on shareholder voting that Norfolk Holdings have agreed to vote that way. As directors they can vote on issues on boardroom level how they feel with no agreement in place

It's 40/40/20 ownership with MA agreeing to follow S&J in voting.

However I understand MA gets an additional seat on the BOD. It will be interesting to see who that will be.

The return of ‘Big’ Keith Scott only a day after the reappearance of ‘Big’ Vince. Why not have a competition to see who is biggest?

on shareholder issues only. Yes you are correct, he will appoint a further Board member, I’m hoping for a call but am ready to be disappointed

How times change since that announcement that Neppers Tom was going to eventually succeed his Auntie at the helm of the club eh....?

And that we were to like it or lump it....

And instead Delia and Michael look to be passing the club on to no financial gain of their own, which would they would be more than fairly owed - but apparently they care about the club more than at least £40 million.

Wonder if all the moany-moany fans on here would do the same?

They have not sold their shares yet and there appears to be nothing in this recent announcement tying them into any particular selling price. That said, I do agree with the gist of your sentiment but if that happens (i.e. they walk away with zero profit) then that is only what they (or at least D Smith as the partner very rarely opens his mouth) have said all the way along. Quite why they should be openly fawned over for merely doing (or 'might' do) what they said is beyond me. Yes, it's generous, we all accept that but this was their stance years ago. Fair play to them.

They are stupid. Chase would never have stepped aside for nothing, just as Sutton would never have been sold for anything less than a British record fee at the time.

Is it even generous, some might argue that they should have raised more from the dilution of equity that all shareholders have suffered?

The 3 years is because Norfolk Holdings had no plans on taking over and only being a minority (however large) shareholder for at least three years. The approach was made by the club for additional finance to cover forward loans made on future parachute payments and player sales. This has been driven by the club with D&M fully involved.

 

the reason of staying on is so that the club continues to be run on the same way it has been for the last few years.

So doing something very generous ceases to be commendable if you've said in advance that you're going to do it? Slightly odd argument.
