The guys a wanker. Full on fucking crank. I am firmly on the get him away from us at any cost bus now Before ED stopped funding the club - did he receive abuse? Because I don't remember that. I remember general sympathy for him that he's shoved over £100M in and we'd little to show for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted April 17, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted April 17, 2019 Ed got plenty of stick. And he put loads of money in. Still doing so up to his dying day. A top bloke, philanthropist the lot. As opposed to the Kunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hughmungus Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Re the latest Chairmans rants Those of a nervous disposition shouldn't read it, its all our fault etc etc... When he mentions Ed Davies not being welcome, I don't recall any of us being particularly angry towards him - in fact he was always ready for a chat when he was seen at games. So its a bit rich of the deluded idiot to keep dragging ED in as justification for not even being bothered about the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One decided to stop funding after propping up £180m the other because he received nasty words on the internet and funded £1.5m which he has taken back plus some every word that cunt spews gets me even more annoyed.

Yes plenty on here and elsewhere explained how he was lining his own pockets by the interest he was charging. The people wanted Sam sacked. They do not go to many games these for a a whole string of reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But basically what he's saying, like someone has stated above, "Its not my fault and everybody else has an agenda against him" From a hotel perspective I remember Ken telling us he had re-nogatiated the terms with Heathcote and the hotel was doing well. Seems to contradict himself a lot, I gave him the benefit of the doubt, it may turn out to be reet, it may not. No Fucker knows apart from Nixon & Jim Aye Ken has told us numerous times how he has improved deals only to slag those deal of in the next couple of months.

Site Supporter Spider Posted April 17, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted April 17, 2019 Telling staff a sale is imminent is a good way to keep them there as long as possible. Kens notes are always a bit narcissistic, but that one has extremely troubling undertones. No buyer even alluded to. Hope I’m very wrong, but this is a bit doom-laden if you ask me.

nantwichwhite Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Ken is not a nice chap, he is also one of the three secured creditors. The silence from the other two is deafening. Surely they can't let the club go under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birch-chorley Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 20% of turnover from catering seems about right to me The most popular item will be a pint at say £4 the duty is say £0.80, the club then gets its 20% another £0.64 which leaves circa £2.60 for heathcoat I’m not 100% sire what a barrel of beer costs but believe your looking at about £1.50 a pint? Leaves heatcoates just over £1 to pay all the kiosk staff and try to turn a profit It doesn’t quite feel like the ‘bad deal’ that Ken has made it out to be for me, just feels like another excercise in passing the book We certainly won’t be rolling in extra money if / when heathcoat is removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Banks Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 It doesn't sound good does it. Think he was right about funding clubs outside the premiership. Without speaking ill of those no longer with us I can't get my head around business people allowing the club to incur the millions of pounds of debt when quite clearly it couldn't survive outside the prem. I get the issue of trying to get promotion but there should always be a plan B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I want Anderson out ASAP but if it’s for Bassini without any money meaning we have another 3-4 years like the last then just wrap the club up and we can all move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
