slickmick Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 (edited) Have Pinnacle failed to deliver. Radio Solent news at 11 metioned something about deal looking to have fallen through. Didn't hear it all, did anyone else hear it ? Edited 18 May, 2009 by slickmick Uncertain if I heard right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Is that definite,with quotes or a "The BBC understands..." ? Strawclutching perhaps. But initial response is "oh sh!t,". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickmick Posted 18 May, 2009 Author Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Didn't catch all of it as a customer came in, but it sounded as if the things looked to be in trouble with the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Pinnacle have failed to deliver.Could you elaborate a little. Radio Hampshire are reporting that there is no news yet. What was said exactly? If they announced that then they must also have said something about what the next steps will be for Fry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickmick Posted 18 May, 2009 Author Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Is that definite,with quotes or a "The BBC understands..." ? Strawclutching perhaps. But initial response is "oh sh!t,".

Ken Tone Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 They said at 8 o'clock -ish that Pinnacle had until 'close of play' today. Surely nothing would be certain yet? K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Said something along the lines that Lynam is hopeful that things can still be sorted.That doesn't sound much different to what we already knew. If there were no direct quotes or interviews then I would suspect they were just saying something for the sake of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 It may be that the prospect of Pinnacle entering a lock-out period has driven the mystery foreigners to place a better offer. Or it maybe that Pinnacle aren't up to much. Or it maybe that things simply aren't done yet. Or it might be something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they announced that then they must also have said something about what the next steps will be for Fry. Like I said a customer came in and I was trying to listen to two conversations. Radio Solent news at 11 said something like a deal has failed to be agreed ? Surely someone else heard it better than I did, hope I got it wrong, but don't think I did.

If there were no direct quotes or interviews then I would suspect they were just saying something for the sake of it. Not a word was mentioned on Friday when an announcement was expected so why was it in the news headlines and not the sport ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Said something along the lines that Lynam is hopeful that things can still be sorted.Almost a direct contradiction of your first post!! I appreciate getting the heads up of some possible developments but you could have been a little less alarmist at the start could you not? It is not a race to see who can post "the" news first is it?

Nineteen Canteen Posted 18 May, 2009 Share Posted 18 May, 2009 Is it a sign of the times that a post allegeding the Pinnacle bid of hope is all over is treated with 35 posts of irrelevance and poor humour.
