SO when will the takeover go through?

[ForeverBlue]

Yeah I do get the irony of quoting what he said as fact but neither JR, nor the consortium have argued against what he said as yet.

Because Ron’s still not being completely transparent with both the council and the consortium!!

 

[BoyWonder2]

Ron said on BBC Essex he is splitting the costs and if it falls through he owes the consortium half of everything outlaid. Not sure he quantified what happens if the deal were to go through. Probably as he thought that unlikely given his forthcoming antics.

RM hasn’t put a penny into this Club for months, closer to a year in fact.

 

[JB Shrimper]

This is the mentality that's not helping anyone

The seige mentality hasn't worked either as you can see we are no closer really than before the club was up for sale. As I said all along Ron will do what Ron wants because he has all the cards/land. I can't believe we are at silly season where people have an urge to pointlessly stand outside an old man's house when we do not hold 100% of the facts!

Because he has zero money, we know it was his son who payed his last court bill. If this all goes up the wall he is finished, although he will gamble the club to the last hurdle in everything.

Every cloud…

So if he owes 45mill which is the figure quoted and also had a bonus of 5 mill given to him by Sainsburys when they pulled out where has all the money gone. We hear the club owes him 25 mill, mostly back rent and he stated he has put that back in over his tenour in loans, so where has the other 25 mill gone?

I have said for many years it is the club that funds the rat and not the other was round. He has hocked everything we ever owned to run his life for these past 20 odd years, seemly for millions. You can guarantee a few mill found it's way to Mezcal.

And who in the right mind lends him such amounts with his track record, they want their heads testing.

And fyi. The last protest made national news and shone light on our issues... If you think that didn't do something you're smoking something

Has the club sale been completed? Or is it on the brink of collapse? I don't smoke which is why I can keep my head clear and in the real world. Enjoy you fruitless task but you and ya man who called me, and 90% of the fan base who didn't protest, gutless and spineless, quite simply can kiss my grits!

It literally is on the verge of collapse.. you lack awareness

Then your protests did nothing

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

Enough is enough Either the council are going to agree a deal that suits them and all concerned by the end of the month At this present time the 20 million is meaning less because no deal means no club That's about it in a nut shell Tom is now a part of the consortium Maybe he can shed some light as to what the he'll is going on .

You
Keep saying **** like this

 

[Tinks]

Has anyone seen the article in the Yellow Advertiser this week regarding Councillor Cox? And him refusing to give up his leadership as it will put the club in jeopardy .

I think Dent said there is a no-confidence vote in him on May 20

 

[hlane17]

Got to love politicians fulfilling their role of being totally ****ing useless.

That’ll be fun. All above board though I assure you.

 

[barryp1]

It seems to me that there is not a collective focus on the problem.

Why has no one got Action Fraud involved in Ron Martin's affairs?

He said he was losing £100k a month from memory. So no idea where this £3.5m figure is coming from to be honest. Maybe old debts or they’ve been even more silly, I have no idea.

I don't know what the figure was but they paid off HMRC as well as the football related debts which took us out of the embargo so that, as well as the monthly costs, must be a tidy sum.

By the very nature of this thread there will be necessary political overlaps relevant to our deal, but please don't use the thread for a general rant at our council or councillors as deletions may follow. Many thanks all.
