"What Lowe is doing should be commended, rather than ridiculed by the flatcaps. He is rebuilding this club, putting together an exciting new breed of talent and youngsters that will take us back to the Promised Land -- given time! The bootboy's brand of journeymen has beens and mercenaries would have sent this club to the edge and beyond."
Bottom line is, all this conjecture and misinterpretation of what conditions were on the table could have been avoided if Pinnacle and/or The Football League had been transparent about what the conditions under discussion were/are.
There may well be confidentialities in the detail but I can't believe the higher level information would have been sensitive.
Wouldn't Lowe be shouting 'foul play' from the roof tops if he'd been 'stitched up' though....? Unless....nah, can't even bring myself to write the 'unless' part....far too far fetched even for a conspiracy theorist of my caliber...
Given the administrator had already determined Pinnacles financial viability this should have been a rubber stamping exercise, surely?
Unless, of course, the FL and Begbies have different proof-of-funds criteria....?
One question....if there were "no other issues" WTF didn't the FL say this on 'day one' that Pinnacle stated there were other issues rather than wait until now?
How many times on here did some of us say: "FFS, why don't the FL just state what (public domain) conditions they need Pinnacle to meet?"
Any idea who and when is likely to reveal the answer to that one Phil? Or are we never likely to know? cheers.
That's the very question I've been asking for days, weeks, months....what have the CURRENT directors of SFC Ltd been doing this last 3 months and how much have they been paid for doing it?
