If you take the money for the team off its not so unreasonable. I take you havent heard the noises coming out of other clubs re. debt. While we ma not be flush we aren''t as destitute as others. Pompey for example are on the way if they cant find a buyer, they have an infastructure and income that cant afford the outgoings. Do you not find that shocking. How are we meant to compete when prem clubs are up against the wall for daring to be competitive.Football is not as it was 20 years ago. But while the majority of us move on and accept the modern game people like yourselves are still stuck in the european run timewarp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellow Submarine 0 Posted September 30, 2008 Let’s face facts 1st Wizard. You, and quite a few other people on here have a personal Vendetta with Delia Smith. You’re not interested in facts but, rather more interested in rumours, miffs and bullshi*. Ten years ago Delia Smith or someone of her equivalent wealth, had the finances to make a real change to a 2nd tier club. Now she has not got anywhere near the wealth to push for a promotion. Now, I’m not going to witch hunt her for that, but thank her for what contribution she had made to OUR club.But at the same time, I’m confident that she has got the best of intentions for this club, and doesn’t’ want to see more than a decade worth of good work (mostly) go down the pan. So surely would you not agree that she would like to make sure it goes to someone who isn’t going to risk flushing all the current boards work down the pan?

KeelansGlove 0 Posted September 30, 2008 I have no vendetta against them, if ten years ago someone of comparitive wealth could make a real change to a second tier club why didnt it happen ? As I have said before the only thing that really sticks in my throat is the fact that they have never given Mr Cullum the courtesy of a face to face meeting, to my knowledge never invited him to see a game from the directors box, never tried to discuss the matter like adults regardless of distances between any valuations. This really does not go along with the concept of being open to investment.Time will tell if any lessons have been learned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In response to your question, I think Delia and co have brought stability from the end of the Chase era. I also think they’ve made a real changes with regards to our stadium and training facilities. Okay we got to the premier league once, but there is so many clubs striving for the same success we want. I agree that something doesn’t quite meet the eye and its annoying being left in the dark with regards to the Cullum deal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T 191 Posted September 30, 2008 The statement from the club today made it very clear that PC has not made any offer for the existing shares. I would like to see PC take over but at the moment there appears that there is nothing to discuss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Colonel 0 Posted September 30, 2008 if cullum really wanted to buy the club then surely he would have done. wats £36m (excluding the 20m for players) to someone worth over £1billion pounds! and lets be honest a man with his backgound would be able to renegotiate the loans and it would therefore not cost him 36m!
