zero self awareness there

The frustration, however, is that he could have done this years ago when it was patently obvious to everyone except Ron that that is what was needed. He could have saved himself the agro and the club its decline.

it is and always has been Ron’s ego which has been his and our downfall

 

[Ex-SouthendUnitedEmployee]

So he’s splitting the football club from the stadium.

**** off Ron, please just **** off. Let us have a clean break!

this was always the plan.

He's a property developer first, owner second.

Ron / Martin Family will probably be landlords to the Stadium, the surrounding shops, restaurants and other things built + the flats.... alongside all that is built upon Roots Hall.

The ' Club' would make it's money still by being a 7 day a week venue, with the footfall around the stadium etc - I'd imagine further down the field that Fossettes would host music events etc. but we are still a long way from that.

 

[Cricko]

Totally underwhelmed with that. Ok he is going one day when it suits him, thats about it ..the rest is just the usual stuff he puts out to quell the masses.

 

[Shrimpet steve]

Bring on the American billionaires.

 

[MountainDrew]

He’s had offers why didn’t he accept, why won’t he accept them now? Trap to get peoples money for season tickets!

 

[Shrimper]

There will be plenty of interested parties

But who would see the revenue? We would pay per season to rent the stadium and then we retain all revenue? This is the bit that concerns me.

Unfortunately, those queuing to buy the club (if there was a queue) were in it for the development opportunites I suspect. Not a football club alone

Oh I see...it was never made clear all these people, consortiums etc. never actaully wanted the club at all. Just one property developer replacing another....Thats unfortunate.

If you are going to sell you are going to run a process to find thb best possible buyer- not just have a contest between those you know or come knocking at your door. This process will I am sure get the best value for the club (lets just hope also someone we want also- we dont get a say)

 

[pottster]

There's not much to sell! It's only worth what someone us prepared to pay, I hope Ron realises that!

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

he wants to undertake due dillegence on any owner ? Jeez...he should have kicked himself out years ago, then #thecheekofit

Oh Gawd, not the 2nd return of Phil Brown!!!!

Exactly ! Something and nothing. Basically, he's open to offers and will stick around until he gets what he wants

Yep of all the Press Conferences that have ever taken place anywhere in the world this is arguably the most pointless of them all!

I won't be happy until the day he actually does one. I'd also like to think that the conditions of selling the football club would grant us the possibility of purchasing the new stadium, training ground and soccerdome to make them SUFC assets in the future.

Be interesting to see if @Carl and his backers will put in a bid.

There was me thinking he put that money in because he loved the f@!#ing club, not because he wanted a return on investment...

 

[Ozzer]

Is this just a ploy to take the wind out of the sails of the 'hold back on renewing season tickets' poll?

Fossetts won’t be allowed pop concerts with the amount of flats built into the stadium

BBC Essex said aim was to have a new owner by start of next season
