He was f**king pish. Why? Samson is better than him. Thank f**k you're not a scout.

As I said on the other thread, I believe there are two meetings scheduled to take place this week. Who it involves is anyones guess but I got the impression it will be the two parties we are already aware of.

Alot of background stuff happening this week coming re takeover. Two meeting taking place, guess the CICv2 and Ken McG bid. There is stuff happening, guess we all just need to sit and wait...

Think youve got the wrong Barr mate. Darren Barr came off the bench for Hearts on Xmas eve!

But if the CIC became insolvent then they can put their stake up for sale surely? That would then leave us in the exact same situation as we are in today. Yeah, they probably won't get £2million but I guess if the CIC was to fail it would be a couple of years down the line meaning the debt to be repaid is significantly less. I'm guessing social funders dont quite work the same way as banks either in regards to missing payments etc. Can't see the risk to the stadium to be honest, can't imagine the ground is worth much anyway!

Supposedly an announcement will be made today regarding the CIC, looks like they are needing more people to sign up to prove to funders that support is there. I believe McGeogh has put an offer to the board and has given a 90 day deadline.

Nobody has ever claimed that Richard Atkinson was the sole man behind Maxi Group. It's well known it's a family business. No idea what you post is actually trying to say, doesn't make too much sense.

Not really one for outing either, just have a feeling that they are a 'well known' face.

I'm guessing a few people on here know exactly who Yul is?

Anyone able to decode this pish?

Ronnie McQuilter was never a legend......

Sounds like he can batter a drink or two nae bother....so he's exactly the player we are looking for. I don't want any of those airy fairy types that has one glass of red wine or a Bacardi breezer. Drinking 20 pints is what real men do.

Perhaps I should rephrase it, in the eyes of Yul how should the club be taken forward if he does not feel that the CIC is the best model? Does he think someone like Angelo Massone be a better option than the CIC?

Ignoring the inaccuracies in your post, what do you suggest as an alternative? Your post only ever contain criticisms of RA or the CIC but I've yet to see you put forward a valid alternative. Try spinning another yarn

I think the sooner this is done the better. Keep seeing the same questions appearing over and over again and it's a bit boring now.

That's a tad harsh. You posted your first message on a Friday afternoon, and the second on Monday morning. Are people not allowed a weekend off?!

Saintsfan, You may be better to email 10000 hours directly for an answer to your questions. You could then post answers given here for people to see.

No. Got a feeling that JJ is in need of some pampers to get him through the transfer window. Keep it together young sir, all will work itself out.

Wasn't good enough in the SPL the first time around and hasn't done much since leaving us, what makes you think he is worth a shot?

You got your case of beer of RA yet? Think I was sitting next to you at the second public meeting.

Are you being serious mate?

Agree with you mate, some false rubbish and cobbled together part statements to suit the agenda of the OP. If the OP has a better idea then let's hear it. Are you wanting the CIC to be scrapped and the club sold to Angelo Massone?

He is signing with Hearts. Was all over the news a month or so ago.

I don't know the reasons why he is involved but I guess that there are probably two parts to it. First part is that he is actually a thoroughly decent chap and does care about Social Enterprise. I guess its like asking why Tom Hunter gives away millions a year to charity. Just seem like decent people that have made a lot of money in life and would like to do something to help society in general. I'm paraphrasing a little but he said something along the lines of being financially secure and know what he will do for the rest of his and this gave him something a little different. Secondly, if this is a success then he will earn massive kudos from the business world and become some sort of CIC 'guru'. He has already given advice to other similar projects and if this works that will increase somewhat.

Being a tad presumptions perhaps and although there was no direct mention this evening just some vague hints, was in Angelo Massone that approached the current BoD with an offer?
