I think all the answers to whatever questions may be asked are already to go...RM and co will just use their standard smoke screens and bull and "we cannot answer that because it is to sensitive to our business partners" blah blah blah.

Business partners? :unsure:
Sainsbury's for one....and I was just saying they will have standard answers already formulated for whatever question is asked,
From what was said at the time. It was clear the consortium were in no way interested in investing with Ron Martin in charge.
I'm not sure how a boycott of say 5-10000 SUFC supporters would impact on retailers in a town with a population in the region of 150,000+ and not forgetting surrounding towns etc.
Do you think the Consortium would have been interested in negotiating if those negotiations were ultimately going to lead to RM still being involved in some capacity? The impression I got was that they wanted him out of the picture.
Beefy - I think I've answered your question in my previous post.
However, to take it further, there were so many possible outcomes from a negotiation that could have involved anything from not doing any deal at all, to a complete takeover, to any host of solutions in between. A lot of people see things in black and white, but there are so many different facets to the club's move/any development such that even if it was concluded by RM and the consortium that they couldn't work together as partners as part of the same bit of the venture, another deal could be done to take things forward. So many possibilities. Think how much land, how many units are involved. And that's before you even consider the football club.
The point was there were no negotiations that could have explored that.
