TrickyTrotter 54 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Deatils of the new owners/lenders to Football Ventures starting to emerge on Companies House website this morning.. The model appears to be up to half a dozen people putting money in. It feels more stable to me than being in hock to one person. If one drops out it should be easier to find another one willing to put in a few million rather than buying a whole club. https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/11761052/charges Edited September 2, 2019 by TrickyTrotter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Site Supporter Cheese 846 Posted September 2, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted September 2, 2019 I don't know about anyone else, but I never want to look at BWFC-related documents on Companies House EVER AGAIN. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TrickyTrotter 54 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 Each to their own. Really looking forward to concentrating on the fottball, but just taking new owners or what they say for granted contributed to the last mess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tkonion 42 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) I'm only seeing Sharon and a guy called Nick Lucock who when I Google him appears to be an Australian travel entrepreneur. I haven't found much on him but his group seem to have acquired a hotel last year so assuming that it's the same fella may explain why the hotel was so important to FV. Edit:- Different Luckock (note the spelling). When I spell it as shown at companies house I get somebody from HG Capital, more likely to be him I guess.

Sluffy 222 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Can't imagine there are £40m of assets to secure against. Club was £24m and hotel £7.4m I don't believe Maguire is at all correct about that. £20m perhaps more believable I would suggest.

Site Supporter HomerJay 441 Posted September 2, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) considering the club doesnt generate any real income, i have no idea how ms brittan and mr luckock expect to be paid back within 3 years! no doubt there will be a forcasts, but as ken before made the mistake, no way can they count on promotion or even crowd money to raise running costs. unless we are gonna tinker along paying peanuts. fans will love that!

Maguire tweets that £40m investment is secured against FV assets. FV has just bought all the assets for around £30m. Whose going to secure £40m of their money on £30m worth of assets? More likely to me that the security is against one lot of £20m invested (no idea if the figure is correct but lets take it as such for now) rather than TWO lots of £20m as Maguire states.

Sluffy 222 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Even Bower who started all this by bringing it to Maguire's attention in the first instance is saying that it's one amount of £20m and not two - just as I had said all along. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
