Mr Khan, thankyou for your quick reply to the questions that have been posed on this thread.

I,for one, did not expect such open and honest answers, simply because we are not used to it!!

To me,it beggars belief, that as a major shareholder of ASFC, that you have not been kept informed about the clubs financial situation. I was under the impression that it was a legal requirement to hold annual shareholders meetings where such things could be discussed/debated and that the results be published. If I am wrong in this belief then please accept my apologies.

Surely, Eric and the board have got to reconsider sitting down with yourself and other shareholders, if as Eric says, He really does want the best for ASFC, then to my mind ALL possible avenues have to be explored. That said,I am no business man..............maybe thats not the way things work?

Firstly sorry for the delay on contributing to this thread but I have only just logged on.

Secondly thank you Ilyas for your concise and transparent posting, it saves having to read between the lines and shows a true honesty and passion for our little/big club.:)

As Chair of the Osc I would be more than happy to meet up with you either at a OSC meeting or a time and place that would suit yourself to discuss ideas of how we the supporters club can help in any way. We may be relatively small in active numbers but not in passion and love for the club and only want to see the club grow in strength and become more financially sound.

As for the juke box... hmmm I can feel an addition to the next agenda :D

A fact to remember is that it was all well known that Eric would step down once he reached the football league. Fair enough he never did untill the price of the club reached fulled maturity. The deal being done is fair to unknown and the club should release some details, because at the moment they are leaving us in the dark about everything. Who is to say it actually is D'ON, who is buying and not some other under-rated businessman. Illyas, thanks for contributing on her. Its good to have some from of Google Page Ranking from the club as we have received more from you then we have from the fishy site.

Surely Eric would have got the best offers for the club on promotion from the Conference, not three seasons down the line for a relegation dogfighting team with £200k's worth of debt?

My hope is that these various debts can be paid off through an issue of equity, and if Mr Whalley cannot contribute, then there are many others who will. Owning shares in Accrington Stanley can only be a positive thing for supporters, and it could save the club from incurring debt.

The last accounts submitted to Companies House are for the year ended 31st May 2007. The accounts for the year ended 31st May 2008 should have been submitted by 31st March 2009 but are now marked as 'overdue' The Club could be fined for submitting late.

As explained the debts are thought to be more 'personal' rather than financial credit. Thus meaning that the club has now a full football league status. However the club fail to own any major assets, with both stadium and training facillitys owned by the council.

Forgive me Nickelson, but where exactly does anyone say the debts are thought to be more 'personal' rather than financial credit? I may have missed something, but I cant find a statement along those lines in any post on this thread.

We,as fans,have been lied to with regards to the financial situation at Stanley.Continually being told, by those high up, that the club 'owes nothing/no one'. We all know now that this is blatantly untrue. I for one do not like being lied to :mad:

It was hardly a secret that the club owed money. I don't take much notice of rumours and stories, but I heard all kinds of things about unpaid bills.

Re: Ilyas speaks .....
 
i suspect the debts are more suppliers than 'borrowings'. I just hope that things like the VAT and whatever are paid up as they are the dodgy ones

So who would we trust, the quick to respond, transparent Mr Khan or the constantly changing pack of lies and misinformation that we are used to getting, and still getting from our Club?:rolleyes:
