Umm - I hope so.

I seem to remember that after Eric Whalley's departure the share structure was arranged so that nobody had (or could get to have?) a controlling interest, which Wham / Mr Holt will have if these resolutions are passed. This seemed a good idea at the time .....

Fingers crossed time I think, but my glass is half full

. On Stanley On!!

Not had the chance to speak to Andy Holt yet but from what I know he's a genuine bloke with a genuine interest and no big time ego.

It goes to show when you get involved, the Stanley bug gets ya

I'm still not sure.
does this give (Mr. Holt & his parent co. 0404 investments) a 75% controlling interest in our club

That,s how I read it no expert but hopefully accepted because I believe this chap will want to purchase the ground and land from the council only my thought,s that not rumour but hopefully I could be right. That would lead IMHO to some exciting times ahead for our club.

Best news ive heard in a LONG LONG time.

Great to see the club FINALLY being transparent.

What is staggering is the fact the club owes over a MILLION pounds to Ilyas and the directors.

Quite frankly staggering.

Finally a little light at the end of the tunnel.

A big, big light at the end of the tunnel! Plenty in the pipeline including upgrades to the Wham stadium. Proper investment which we have been desperate for!

It doesn't actually stagger me at all - it's what directors outside the Premier**** (oops spelling) generally do, shovel money into a bottomless pit for the joy of getting slagged off on forums like this for not shovelling still more in, or for wanting some of their cash back when they decide enough is enough ......

... or for not always being as transparent about what they're doing as we might like

In my opinion, of course

And your sarcastic point is???

Not sarcastic, just fact - in every one of your posts you seem to think that the supporters club is at the centre of everything that happens within the club & while I'm not denying their importance - indeed I applaud the work they do, even help out when I can, I'm not sure you grasp exactly what their role is

Chewbacca · 24-10-2015, 20:27

I only know what I heard on Radio Lancs but it seems good news to me with a new dawn for the club.

I would like to be able to buy into the extra shares, but if not I would still support the idea anyway.

AccyMad · 24-10-2015, 21:17

Sounds good on the surface, local company wanting to invest in our beloved club - stuff dreams are made of, right?? I know we can't afford to turn down any investment but can't help but be wary of anyone having a controlling interest - wish I could be at the meeting on Wednesday to hear the ins & outs of the proposal but will have to depend on reports from people who are there, if it's good for the club I'll be right behind it but at the moment I'm reserving any judgment

Let,s hope if the takeover is successful that we all get behind the new regime and maybe some of the stay away fans or all of them for whatever reason :ie Don,t like Coley, don,t like the present regime, or whatever they did,nt like start to return and push this little club of ours to bigger and better times.(less than 1100 home fans yesterday poor and goes someway to explain why the club owes in excess of a million pound.)
