Can Stanley sustain itself until such time it becomes a business? |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
Any idea why a) David would do this b) why Eric wouldn't do a deal & publicly bad mouthed ya (fairy god mother thing?)
Seems a trend.....? (Thats not a dig BTW :) :) :) |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
I don't think you'll see any directors putting any cash in for the next few week, if theres been £100K raised in 4 week and its still coming in they'll sit back and wait for the dead line, this has been my thought all along but we cannot do anything about it, we have to get out there and raise funds, we can't take the risk, this is one reason I think you don't see the club organising much, maybe they know it will be paid up

Probably, they will wait to see how much is raised Ilyas has already said he will match what the directors put in so I'm sure they would rather take this avenue than the share issue :confused:. |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
willie. you see a trend do you ?what, of two people ? perhaps three if you are counted.
I am afraid a bulletin board is not a good place to conduct such dialogues - this is now the second time in two hours i believe you are being negative without cause. Yes, its fair to ask questions, and yes, i open myself up to being addressed in this way by coming on teh bulletin board. Your faith in eric is laudable. You forget who bankrolled the club whilst he was in charge. You also forget that this tax bill is from his time. And oneil and eric have worked together for a while so when eric sold to oneil, I am sure they must have come to some deal which we are all going to find out about at some point. listen Willie, if you have genuine questions about me and the offer, then ask them. If, like oneil, you wish to cast aspertions, then i cant stop you, but i can (and will) answer back. I have, over 17 yrs, made donations of hard cash. You and I may not have met, we may never be friends, but I have stated categorically that my interest is the future of the club. the fact that two people (eric and oneil) have got the club into this mess where we are going cap in hand to all and sundry is a disgrace. You choose to forive this for the fact we got into the league. perhaps you should ask eric where we got the cash to fight for the league ? or get acceptable ground standards ? I ask for no favours, but I will not pretend to sit back and watch our club sink whilst you take pot shots. I have made an offer to put £250,000 into the club. My conditions are firstly - transparency (lets know how much we owe, and to whom), and secondly, that it be equity, not debt, and not handouts. Further, if oneil and eric make donations, with no conditions, i will match. what else do you think i ought to do ? come on willie, speak up. what do you think i ought to do ? pack up and go home ? withdraw the offer so that our club will fold, if not on nov 2nd, then a few months later ? please answer these questions before you try to score debating points with me on this board. if you prefer to chat face to face, name the place and the time. just as i have told oneil on numerous occasions. |

If we didn't have the core support to attract enough revenue streams through the gate and the success on the football pitch was insufficient to attract the revenue streams from advertising/hospitality, etc. during the Eric Whalley years, why should we expect it to be so different under ASSF control? |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
Ilyas, beyond the immediate removal of debt, what finance would be made available to the club should ASSF become majority shareholder?
The removal of debt on its own would not suffice as an 'investment' because otherwise ASSF would be in no better a position than the apparently potless current regime. And we all know that the club needs rebuilding from the bottom upwards in order to sustain its current position for any period of time |

Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
Again you get me all wrong......totally wrong. And again I apologise if you think I am bad mouthing you. This is a forum & sometimes words typed into a thread can be read differently at the receivers end...
I just wondered if you had any idea why Eric & David would publically bad mouth you & your ideas. Not negative, not fishing for anything other than your thoughts on why? You may not have any idea... i don't know After the meeting at your house I was seriously impressed with your passion for the cause. Still am. Every time I hear that you are gonna write a cheque & not be chairman, or even on the board, I wonder why we, as fans, are going to all the effort of fundraising. I worry about the club constantly, i think about ASFC more than anything in my life... I will leave the questions to others with more "tactful literacy".... I KNOW you would do the right thing for the club, so would Rob Houseman, Diane, Pete, Rob Russell, Lowiey...... We are all ASFC through & through. And that is why Illyas, whatever dialogue occurs on here & in real life, We will ALWAYS be friends Stanley Forever |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
Hi Ilyas
I can fully understand Willie Miller's question. He is only asking as to why Eric and now Dave O'Neil both refused your help. He does not appear to be 'having a pop at you' - just questioning their reasons. With everyone's love of ASFC, it is very hard to understand that they both want to bite the hand that is going to feed them! |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
The only reason I can see DON not wanting to open talks with the ASSF is because the transperacy will open a barrell of worms. Something is not right and I dont think anyone outside that office knows the truth (as a fact).
Ilyas, I think there is alot of honesty on your part and thank you for answering alot of the questions that people have asked. Would you be looking for further possible financial backing from business associates and possible potential new backers if/on completion of a takeover by the ASSF ? |
Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
the new share issue would be open to all Jesus. Fans could invest from quids to thousands to tens of thousands

Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...
Are Glasgow Celtic run in a similar way ?
It seems an excellent idea in theory so what percentage of shares would give you a voice ?. It seems like the Buy a Football club idea at Ebbsfleet but with people that actually care. |
