Whatever one's view of Matt's role in this aborted takeover bid, I do hope that they will not confuse his judgement with his passion and his motives !
I am certain that tonight he is eating up inside with genuine anguish and more than likely won't sleep a wink !
The situation unfolded over weeks, it went from hope and anticipation to frustration and (ultimately) grief but anyone who questions his dedication to the cause is completely deluded and has no understanding of what the man is all about !
I beg you please to get off his back and support the cause that (he and) we all hold dear !
Leon, you have my total respect and whatever happens, I hope that the idiots who deride your efforts eventually realise that without you SFC would probably not exist !
If the Swiss were ever concerned about upsetting the fanbase by challenging the MLT backed bid (which I seriously doubt) then now it is easy, no ?
Just make him chairman and you achieve the 'double whammy', you own the club and you have the legend on board as well !
If the OP is right and that was their thought process then problem solved !!!
Just to summarize the thread so far :
A (classy as f*ck) chick with nice tanned legs was seen at SMS getting out of a gas guzzler with a Swiss reg plate (ZH 33) which is registered as a police boat belonging to a vegetable farmer !
I'm seriously beginning to think that we are on the cusp of a sensational takeover after all !
Bring it on..............
Strange that, Guided Missile gets his PA to do it for him, I must be the only person who presses his own buttons !
(where did it all go wrong for me) ????
Does anyone really know if they are even Swiss ??
MF has only ever talked of a potential bid from 'overseas' !
To the best of my knowledge it was the Echo who first mentioned Switzerland and it was then taken up on this board as gospel !
Could be Arabs, Yanks, Chinese or Indians for all we know TBH.
