Re: West Ham for sale (the fat lady is on her way)
Which debunks every theory that Gold and Sullivan would be good for the club because as some on here believe they are West Ham supporters. They could not give a flying one and thats why they are looking at any club that can make them a profit. The only thing going for them as has been pointed out to me already is that if they make a profit then surely as a club we are better off. Not only that they have to be better then the present owners -all well and good but surely anyone would be better then the present idiots.Jud wrote:David Sullivan on 5Live now said he and DG are actively looking at half a dozen clubs now (not all prem) - but he won't/can't comment on West Ham.
He reckons he's looked at about 20 clubs in total since leaving Brum.
Be careful what you wish for, Gold and Sullivan will take relegation and lack of investment as a given.
Gold and Sullivan are in it for themselves -lets not get deluded into thinking that they are supporters like us, they want to maximise their investment and will do all it takes to make sure that happens. Whether or not this is a good thing is yet to be seen.
There is no sentimentality in football anymore, these guys are here to make money (from us), end of.

Re: West Ham for sale (the fat lady is on her way)
Posted very few on this particular thread..
Why is everyone concerned WHO Intermarket are...??? Shirley the only people they need to inform is: Rothschild and the Premier League...
The day when investors need to inform the peanut gallery are far and away...Shareholders are the only ones who need informing in the event of a takeover I would imagine...we'll as usual, be the LAST ones.....
Sad but true.....

CHUCK WTF :shock: im surprised at you!Chuck D wrote:
Nani discovery?
f***ing hell.
Seriously Fids, I'm glad you mentioned that Nani found him, on Arsene Wenger's list of players whose contracts run out soon.
and disapointed.
Nani found Chamakh, you know he keeps finding players, as soon as he is linked to a player richer clubs buy them.
That new bloke at City? Google Nani Viera, he spotted him when scouting Jiminez

Its human nature isnt it, the sort of mentality that makes people want a known quantity with experience like Dyer over a lucky dip like Savio or Behrami. Its to do with the safety of the cave, fear of the dark,
things that go bump in the night :shock:

Some reports suggesting all Inter need do is prove funds, and Sullivan starts going on about having other things to look at
Go on go on ask West Ham out............well what did she say?
"she said shes met someone else, but I dont care coz theres loads of others and they all want me, never liked her anyway"

Sounds like CityHammer was right with "An envelope is slowly being removed"
Re: West Ham for sale (the fat lady is on her way)
Interesting the Times and Mirror stories match up very closely indeed (apart from one area) and they are 2 papers not known for their... ahem... close links. So either they both have story right or one of the journos is doing his copy from The Tines Online ("Journo in lazy b*stard shocker!"). There are a lot of parallels with regard to City Hammers post last night too ("Cityhammer is Mirror Journo shocker")
Lets hope they both have the story right and things are moving swiftly to a conclusion, I ****ing hope so I can't take any more of this thread. It's like crack - it's great fun at the time but you know its slowly eating your brain and you regret it every time you put it down.
For what its worth I called the only person I now know at the club today - he wouldn't take me call (never happened before). So either someone has now told him I shagged his sister last year or he didn't want to talk to me and give anything away about takeover talks. lets hope its not the sister option or I'm proper ****ed

Re: West Ham for sale (the fat lady is on her way)
This waiting is doing all our eads in.
Theres a story in the times saying Intermarket missed the deadline. Fernandes failed to submit a bid which just leaves Gold and Sullivan.
The thought of that really leaves me cold. Brown was supposedly a fan yet he milked the club dry over 15 years or so. Put sweet FA and pulled over 30 million out.
These 2 also claim to be fans yet are trying to buy the club on the cheap. Which to me means their motives are at best dubious.
I really hope the Times story isn't true and the club are bought by a group that want success on the field of play. Not a group who want to line their own deep pockets in Terry Brown tradition.

No they aren't. And if it were true then another group should easily trump their cheap offer, No ?Hammer_scout51 wrote: These 2 also claim to be fans yet are trying to buy the club on the cheap

Why give more money to a bunch of Icelandic bankers that have ****ed up their countries economy than you have to?
I can't get my head around this idea that people think G&S should pay top dollar to prove they are real fans.
I have no idea whether they would be good for West Ham in the long run or not but Brum fans moaning about them has to be taken in the context that Birmingham City have always been in Villa's shadow and have one f*** all in their whole history.

That has happened with intermarket to my knowledge. I hear they do have the money in place.
All the time straumur have said they are prepared to hang onto us for 3 years. Their holding company
has owned us for 7 months. I believe they are still prepared to keep to the original business plan.
So lets hope i'm 100% wrong and G&S prove themselves, if they succeed in buying our club.
