JF 694 Posted May 6, 2009 Didnt someone also post on here before about Icelandic investment? Or did i dream that? Yeah heard Kerry Katona was gonna invest but don''t think she can afford to now![:P] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barclay_Boy 0 Posted May 6, 2009 [quote user="Barry Brockes"]I haven''t spoken to him for a couple of months as he has been up to his eyeballs sorting out his day to day business but my feeling is that it will only happen if NCFC make the running the next time. Unless they''ve changed their tune from the time of ''Cullumgate'' I think that''s very unlikely. He''s been turned away twice and knowing him as I do I think it unlikely he will go back knocking for a third time. The guy who spoke up at the forum on Monday was also very getting very warm and made Munby and Doncaster look very uncomfortable, understandably so. My perception is that Delia wants investment but on her terms which includes keeping control and Munby and Doncaster want to preserve their jobs. They both know the score if Peter takes control so banging head against brick wall are words that come to mind.[/quote]BUMP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smudger 0 Posted May 6, 2009 BUMP... It is clear that Archant are still not shockingly on the case... This story should be front page news by now and should also of been circulated to National Press Reporters to follow up on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to say I wasn''t overimpressed. The issue about the club refusing even to meet with potential investors is unarguable.

[/quote] Whether or not the guy would have been right for us in the end is not really the point though. The point, so far as i am concerned, is that if what he is saying is true he was completely blanked and they did not even meet. The same appears to have been the case with PC. how many more?

Syteanric 1 Posted May 7, 2009 the local press wont tread on the clubs toes yet again! for fear of losing 46 "we owe em one" interviews with the Doc next season... Perhaps the club havent faxed over the news story they want Archant to print yet?Shocking state of affairs from what Heart reported.. our board are Liars.. Doomcaster said that in the last 13 years no one has made an offer or apprached Delia to bu the club - Rubbish!Rick Waghorn reports on his site that no one has approached Delia to buy the club - Rubbish!Thi board love in has gone on long enough and the lies MUST be exposed by the press in order to force the board out...it''s time the local media represented its audience and kept its promise of fighting for the people of Norwich by telling the truth...jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Kent 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Emailed Doncaster about this.He claims that he has never spoken to Graham Tweed or the Indians. He says that no foreign investment has been blocked, because no offer has ever been made.He says the information from Tweed is made up and Carrow Road is used for commercial purposes 7 days a week.On Cullum he said the confiendentially argreement is standard practice with investment talks, but Cullum never made an offer for Delia''s shares.Make of that what you will, but I''m not convinced.

Bulsh*t!the reason the board have not received an official offer is because they do not meet with potential investors..they are cowards, they are arrogant, the club is Delias plaything, a celebrity who''s career is on the wane an has been for years she is clinging on to the one thing she has left keeping her in the public eye.It''s too late for them now, we need a hostile takeover from someone to save the club.jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barclay_Boy 0 Posted May 7, 2009 very interesting stuff. I can''t believe why people aren''t going absolutely mental over this thread (and to be fair some of us are) if ever people wanted proof that there is now and has previously been significant interest in investing into Norwich City FC then all you have to do is thread this thread, click and read the link posted by Moanin Riverender, click and listen to the Heart FM Broadcast and you have the proof. Well and truly nails the myth that "nobody is mad enough to invest in football clubs these days"And why oh why isn''t the EDP running this as a front page story?????????????????
