Re: Administration and recovery
If Bellendini hasn't broken the NDA it's only because Jim White has been screening the c*nts calls.
Also I agree with DSB that this is very different from people trying to buy off Anderson. I also think that, rather than being timewasters, some of the 'tyre kickers' simply found out what dealing with Honest Ken was like. I e. The tyres are made of Papier maché and there's a noisy hairdryer where the engine should be.

Re: Administration and recovery
Administrators said that they were hoping to get heads of terms signed on Friday with new purchaser.
So my guess is thats when there will be a leak/press release

Re: Administration and recovery
Michael James is on the board of one of the consortiums thought to have submitted a bid for the club. Granted, he is only a secured creditor of the hotel and not the football club itself, but that's surely got to helpful to the administrator when deciding who represents the best deal for the creditors?

They could say how many there are, but they don’t have to. Remind me, what’s Friday - did the admins say they’d make a decision, announce it or what?
So effectively they'll have agreed Heads by Friday if they stick to the plan - which in turn means they will have picked their preferred bidder - the one they intend to negotiate the full deal with - as I mentioned previously, we've been at Heads of Terms twice this year already which is still a risk for the Admins that they don't get to a deal with their preferred bidder. Makes no mention regarding announcing anything.

Re: Administration and recovery
I guess that depends on whether FV's bid means paying MJ 100% and all the other creds nowt!nicholaldo wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2019 8:24 pmMichael James is on the board of one of the consortiums thought to have submitted a bid for the club.

Re: Administration and recovery
I don't understand how headlines such as "Bassini is still in the running" have been allowed to go out, without reporting if he has passed the fit and proper persons test? Surely that would be a big clue in assessing the merit of his new claim, given as far as has been reported he hasn't yet in his three months of involvement provided proof of any funds, and the passing of his FPP in his original "bid" was reported to be based on that?LeverEnd wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2019 7:19 pmIf Bellendini hasn't broken the NDA it's only because Jim White has been screening the c*nts calls.

Then again I suspect the inevitable world salad answer along the lines of "yeah, we've put it in, it's just needs checking, we've got the money, Ken Anderson. those people, they're dying, administration. so terrible, I will save this club" might not tell them very much.

Re: Administration and recovery
It's sorta what news outlets do - they could've been given an insider from someone close to the bid that they're still in. It's not unreasonable for them to pass that on, even if they don't know all the detail (which they don't) - is probably why they said "we understand" - which is a few notches down from we bang on certain he's met all the criteria...bristol_Wanderer3 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2019 9:21 pmI don't understand how headlines such as "Bassini is still in the running" have been allowed to go out, without reporting if he has passed the fit and proper persons test?

Re: Administration and recovery
Is it not just a case of Iles thinking that nothing will wind Wanderers fans up and sell a few newspapers (does anyone still buy the BN?) more than mentioning Bassini? Surely the administrators credibility has to be brought into question if that prick gets anywhere near buying us?

Uh-oh. That's jinxed it. Nailed on now that he'll be the new owner and player-manager by tea time Friday.

Re: Administration and recovery
Doubtful on the second part. Their job is to try and get to the best monetary position for creditors that saves the business (or close it). They're not judging the flavour of the fruitloops or how said fruitloop might run it...Burnden Paddock wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2019 9:46 pmIs it not just a case of Iles thinking that nothing will wind Wanderers fans up and sell a few newspapers (does anyone still buy the BN?) more than mentioning Bassini?

If I've interpreted things correctly, the two previous agreements were reached pre-due diligence whereas this one on Friday (assuming there is one) will have been reached post-due diligence.
That feels significant. Is it?

Re: Administration and recovery
So, less of a 'who's who' and more of a 'who the feck's he?' And where's Harry Brockbank's name?

Nixon reported recently that Brockbank's in a bit of a quandry. Apparently, his contract had a clause in it which committed us to offering him a new one by a certain date after making three first-team appearances (or maybe starts, I can't remember). That date has now passed and because we're in administration we're not in a position to offer him the new deal we're contractual obliged to. As I understand it, he's therefore out-of-contract.
