Latest Takeover Rumour. The Moores / Noell one

[The Esk]

I may have this totally wrong, but it would appear that you are proposing the following:-

That an outside party, but not a bank, is approached to loan the club funds 100% of funds to build a stadium because the current owners won't/can't and in return they get a minority stake in the club , presumably which they have to buy from existing shareholders.

The loan they advance gets repaid when income streams are available to do so.

Is that what you're suggesting?

These so called "Martinez Bonds" otherwise known in the City as IPUBs (Incredible Phenomenal Unique Bonds) look good.

I'm in, can't believe they haven't been done before.

Apparently this is dead in the water. Agreed not to announce until feb

I havent mentioned about majority shareholders nor bank loans.

Personally i'd be exploring PE deals for minority stakeholding to build a ground and repayment terms based around that an future income streams.

It would cost alot but over time the value of the club would increase and the shareholding wouldnt be affected after repayment.

Zat the whole issue about the ground/new stadium is that everyone is looking for someone else to pay for it. Both the City Council and the club are looking for something for nothing.

That's why it's not happening.

Announce what?

That it's not happening.

 

[TheFinnFan]

That it's not happening.

What would be the point of that ...

I've no idea. Perhaps scrutiny of the club is heightened in a transfer window?

Half ST's not being on sale anymore?

Like I said before if this really falls through and we would lose Byram to Hammers for example....it really would tell a story....a sad sad story

 

[weltonblue]

The old old story you mean.

Doubt Byram'd be that arsed about our takeover at this point to be honest. He'd probably join us over them because of our manager, history and squad potential...

We do have one or two other interested parties though you do realise?
These two currently enjoying their exclusivity agreement will hopefully fall away soon so the other(s) can come to the fore.
Incumbents need to sell.
