Stephen Frys Evil Twin 0 Posted June 29, 2008 I have to say if this announcement amounts to anything less than a £10m kitty for transfers, Archant are going to have hell to pay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green and Yellow 0 Posted June 29, 2008 It wouldn''t surprise me at all if the Turners are the new major shareholders with a massive cash injection. Delia will fade into the background and Doncaster will move on away from NCFC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen Frys Evil Twin 0 Posted June 29, 2008 That''s unlikely though, the club insists that the debt is "manageable", so I doubt there''s any real urgency to pay it off in a shorter timeframe than that agreed with the lenders.The only way I see that happening is if it''s a full-on takeover, which Delia has said would never happen unless the buyers would guarantee a large sum for squad development...Therefore, if it''s a piddly little loan there''ll be hell to pay.

Barclay_Boy 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Very conerned here that quite a few people are going OT on what we know so far. We are not "rich" yet. Could just be bad journalism, but the word "shock" worries me greatly. If we were in line to get shed loads of money and/or about to sign up lots of top players then surely the words would be delight, thrill etc. Alos "intrigue" fans of rival clubs, what the hell is that all about? If we were in line for a big transfer kitty that wouldn''t intrigue fans of other clubs, the words would be shock, worry etc etc. Also the word "potential ", potential can be a hell of a long way from a done deal. Possible ideas - shock could mean that we are in a worse financial situation than we think, and this potential investment is going to turn the club around, or the shock could be where the money is coming from. But why would this "intrigue" fans of other clubs, unless the money was coming from a bizarre or unusual source?The saving grace in the snippet of info that has been leaked so far, is the statement that this would equip the club for a real push for promotion to the prem, that has got to mean "potential" singnificant investment in players, which is what we have been crying out for. However, assuming that we are still negotiating for players, and the extra money is not yet available, then by releasing the story tomorrow, could this not have the effect of other clubs raising the price for players we are chasing?I am hoping that "potential" in this case means almost rather than just possible, also that no one stands in the way or puts barriers up for this investment unless there''s a damn good reason why. This is going to give me a sleepless night tonight, and if the story has been hyped up by the EDP then I for one will never purchase it again. I will, however, be the first in the queue at the paper shop tomorrow at 6am. Could be an emotional Monday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,376 Posted June 29, 2008 Presumabley we wont be wanting to pay over the odds for these targets we have... after revealing what we''re thinking is big investmentment, this will be the case.So what I''m thinking is, will the majority of our summer signings be revealed tomorrow too...?

Mark Smith 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Bear in mind though, that this appears to be the EDP ''revealing'' things. We have no indication that club want to spill the beans tomorrow. Especially if it''s only ''potential'' investment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ca 1 Posted June 29, 2008 [quote user="TIL 1010"]Just had a phonecall and someone wants total control of the club in return for 20 million.It is a name we have read on numerous occassions and i am delighted about it.There is little doubt in my mind the TURNERS have pulled of this coup so you can work it out for yourselves. [/quote] Just thinking about this and John says ''''someone wants control of the club'''' which doesn''t mean that the board have sanctioned it and its going through.Although he does say that there''s no doubt in his mind that the Turners ''''have pulled of this coup'''' which sounds like its a done dealI''m confused.com so aren''t going to get too excited until I see the ''''sensational news'''' in black and white.You better not be leading us up the garden path Archant!!!

Barclay_Boy 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Another shocking realisation - if this is all true and we are given significant cash to spend tomorrow, then all of the "negative nancys" and "positive percys" are going to have nothing to argue about!
