Marc Iles @MarcIles 4h4 hours ago More Replying to @gregjdawson @KieranMaguire Looks like Eddie Davies's family will press the admin button on Tuesday as KA (apparently) prevented from doing so as per a contract with Bassini. Hoped there will be a quick sale. Was Bassini a plant by the family to ensure that they had some control of the process then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it known whether or not the representatives of Moonshift/Davies family have been proactively contacting investors that had previously expressed an interest with a view to putting the case for buying out of administration and not having to deal with Anderson? It was rumoured that there have been several over the last couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jcookie Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Is there nothing in the story Nixon did that furture ventures have joined forces with another group from the Middle East and that’s where the new cash could come from? Also wasn’t there Americans who wanted to buy us from blumarble last year, are they not interested? Finally are you still not working for any bidders?

Tommy Banks Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Been away for a few days and just had a quick catchup. Looks as though nothing major has happened, just a lot of speculation. Notice that Howard is back, which I’m glad to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. We were the better team later on. Whilst nothing is guaranteed, if that had gone in, we would have had a significantly better chance of winning.

I also thought it was significantly less than 20 minutes left. But Roger, you can argue all you like, scoring that goal would certainly have put us in a better position than not scoring it.
