WestStandUpper Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 For some reason, I just have a gut feeling he's gonna cave in before court and accept an offer before the hearing... The prospect of liquidation, having to attend hearings and investigations is definitely not what he wants. Just a gut.. maybe hope too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kipper seems to think our lawyer is confident of getting an adjournment tomorrow, so I'm going to lean on the side of disagreeing and say we get liquidated tomorrow.

Most of us all want the same thing and that's a future for the club. I get it mate but the judge is spending less than a minute per case. Trivial or not if Ken says 'I'm really close' honest. The judge may grant an adjournment. Might help Howards mob but will give Ken another 6 days to seal a deal with bassini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would mean Howard's Bahraini Army are back in play, along with others, so it would be a decent outcome.

As a percentage what is the likelyhood that you will get asked a question that you have already answered repeatedly in the next 10 minutes? 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in reference to him getting an extension on the notice period for the shares, rather than tomorrows case. I just thought him saying that he didn't receive the letter until a week after it was delivered wouldn't be enough, but somehow he's found a judge today to give him another week. That was my only point really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a percentage what is the likelyhood that you will get asked a question that you have already answered repeatedly in the next 10 minutes? Some folk get confused by percentages, so I think we should have a scale that can be consistently used for asking Howard questions about the likelihood of various shit happening / not happening. I reckon everything should be on a scale of 1 to 1, keep it nice and simple. On Howard's behalf, the answer to all future what's the likelihood questions is 1. Sorted.

I had answered the question previously also. The 'somebody else' being me? Can I not ask a question now? Incidentally I've been a member of this forum since it started, not posted much but that's irrelevant. For what it's worth I echo Silent Bob's earlier post.

That was my only point really. Ken has been in the business a long time. Probably knows a few judges who he knows can be lenient. Doubt he would've put all his eggs in the basket of challenging the share recall if he didn't feel confident about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it quite amusing that Anderson's company for buying Bolton is literally called Inner Circle Investments - as he's only interested in investing in his inner circle, which includes Ken and family.

Benny The Ball Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 51 minutes ago, wakey said: In summary ... 1. We have Benny's mob, some comedy tyre kickers, Howard's mob fading out, and the mad fella plus a couple of dodgy blokes backed by Thai money launderers (allegedly). 2. We'll get an adjournment tomorrow in our 20 second hearing us: can we please have another ... judge: yes, now fuck off 3. By the state of this forum, no fucker in Bolton's done a scrap of work today 4. We've yet to establish how many times we can ask Howard exactly the same questions, but it's somewhere between fucking loads and infinity 5. Lots of folk upset that Howard's mob looking less likely despite the fact we've no idea who they are or what their intentions for the club are (although H seems to temper expectations whenever it looks likely and offer juicier bits when it looks off) 6. Turning up on Saturday gets you out of the house for a couple of hours with the added benefit of not having t watch the match. 7. You can still boo from outside (in the likelihood we're playing shit) We have Benny's mob, some comedy tyre kickers Lets wait and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakey Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 That Khilji bloke / woman at Gaspard ... their address on companies house is "Khilji residence". Fucking love it. Them or the money launderers for me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
