If I knew nowt about the last 3 years and that was the only basis I had to judge him, I'd quite like him.

Kens a right cunt and not even our cunt anymore and you dont have to be a bed sheet brigader to think that I very much doubt the money was paid by the FFA. Didn't they withdraw their offer last time when there appeared to be an outstanding Winding Up Order on the club? Well we've got the HMRC winder at least hanging over us currently, so in that case I can't see them having stumped up the money.

Good to see a Bolton fan onboard.
birch-chorley Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Very interesting development I bet the car park will get built upon sooner rather than later! If it brings enough in to keep us going a few years then fair enough Edited March 12, 2019 by birch-chorley

Seems an obvious assumption to make.
Howardroark Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Still no obvious sign of significant funding. Assuming Michael James’ equity is derived from the £5.5M he’s owed. Jeff Thomas- Chairman of UKCloud, only profitable due to funding from a government grant (Business Growth Fund). Happy that it’ll probably now happen, but I maintain it’s a sideways step financially.

With regards Michael James, why would equity be better for him than his current loan secured against the car park? Surely he would just take the Car Park if the new owners couldn’t pay him off With regards it being a sideways step, surely the new owners need to put some funding in or we go to the wall within weeks, there is nothing left to sell / borrow against

Jeff Thomas & Basran wealth isn’t assumption based. In terms of Michael James, it simply has to be a debt to equity swap, wouldn’t be surprised if Brett W did the same.

Converting the loan to equity just means he can take an equity position for nothing whilst converting the amount owed to a directors loan. This has sizeable advantages in that he can request a drawing against the loan every month (higher than the repayments he was receiving), enjoy tax breaks on it and finally, releasing the lien on the car park allows for redevelopment which almost certainly will be awarded to PBP.
birch-chorley Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Heathcoat will be on the board next Just when we were about to kick him out and win back that multi billion pound revenue stream Damn you Heathcoat
