hypochondriac

I'm being told of the seriousness of the bid by people I trust far far more than Jackson. I wouldn't believe it if he told me.

Its just if we are looking at Salz failing then we must also look at LLS as well. Besides, officially we haven't heard anything yet, just stuff we can get from people we trust. I want to hear from the administrator first before I decide they are our only option.

I think it is the selling concept, people like Jackson who go out to places like Dubai and sell the concept of the club to wealthy individuals. LLS may be quite good at that.

Of course. I have no idea if it is true or not but it's worth knowing and reminds us that whilst celebrating our club being saved, we have to be wary as well so that anyone who comes in can be as successful as they can be.

Are you sure Nick? It is something I would be nervous about should their group be successful (whilst being happy to have a club at the same time.)

I'm just not prepared to totally back MJ yet and certainly not over someone like Salz who has been a proven success in business. Both of them have a bad past as far as SFC is concerned. All investors are equal in my book and I'll be looking at what they have to offer once they show their hand and once they are successful.

I imagine he will want some sort of reward for his part in things. I'm not sure what that reward would entail. He wanted to be on the board at Bournemouth and I don't believe it was his money?

Hmm. I doubt that Nick. Would MLT have come out in support if that was the case?

I too am concerned by Jackson. I am told that Marc Jackson was sacked quite recently from his job at a local printer resellers company for conning them into a free trip to Dubai saying he was going to secure a big deal for the said company, when in fact he went on a jolly, apparantly looking for investment for a football club. Obviously this is an alleged allegation and I make no guarantees of its accuracy. The issue isn't about Jackson though. It matters not what he is like, it only mattes that I have a club to support next season.

Probably why no one has taken him up on his offer...

Nope it's non refundable! Who is going to risk that finance with zero chance of a return?

What I hated was the "feature" game on ITV where they would talk to fans and then show the highlights in some arty way with strange camera angles. That was awful.

Fill in the blanks? A comprehension exercise?

Is it finance you were thinking Stupert?

Bet it was Pinnacle.

That's your choice but surely it is sensible to at least wait until we can see all the details?

I'm not sure how far I trust Morph. His posts were quite aggressive towards Phil. I know who Phil is but I don't know Morph. He showed his true colours with that outburst last year.

Well to be fair I did not realise his involvement when I first posted that. I still think it is important to be mindful and wary and there is a lot of use in seeing that clip. In all honesty I am against his involvement in the decision making process. If we have no choice then fair enough.

Ok mate I think your posts speak for themselves. You clearly arent a fan if you would rather the club dies than gets a chance to be rescued

So basically you would rather saints went under than be taken over by Jackson's consortium, irrespective of the fact you have no idea of anyone else involved. Smart guy.

But our views on him are irrelevant which is sort of the point.

Well no actually because you started this thread with this line: I find it inconceivable that posters here are prepared to give Marc Jackson a chance. Are you that stupid? Which spectacularly fails to comprehend what any poster is saying to you. If you believe that Jackson won't get in then why are you bothered about people being prepared to give him a chance. They are only doing that on the basis that he is the last resort and that he actually is successful in getting in.

FFS we aren't debating about what MAY happen. If what you are suggesting does happen then I'm sure people will be generally satisfied. However there is a chance, however remote you think it is, that Jackson's group DOES take control. In that specific instance would you prefer that to the club ceasing to exist. That's all anyone else is saying and if you agree then there is really nothing to disagree about.

I think TopGun is fully aware of our point of view. I think he started this thread deliberately to cause conflict. I say that because he has chosen to ignore any posts asking sensible questions.

HelpmeRhonda was that American bloke pretending to be a bird wanting to buy us to get some leverage to buy Blackburn I believe. SaintDavid still posts on here and so does LLS but not very much.
