One Anonymous User Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 With GLS as future chairman, we dont need REA and Chris the Rangers fan on the board . Instead of paying monthy subs for no return, pay £20 per month and get one share in the club per month. this way the 48% share holders would come on board. Many fans who have been put off by the CIC, thinking that they will be paying for REA & co & co & co and everyone else that he invites to the board room at every home game, would come on board and then I'm quite sure SMISA would be up for this proposal too. Just a thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isle Of Bute Saint Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Why are you shy of showing your normal log in name. That puts me right off you right away. Grow balls and stand up for what you believe in whether we agree or not. That will you at least get respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldo_j Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 With a week to the deadline it's a pretty useless thought. Instead of asking on here why don't you go talk to the board about your proposal? Nah, didnae think so.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldo_j Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 So when will see formalised plans? When will you set up a method for fans to pay their money? When will you be making your announcement and leading the takeover? When is your expected timelines? Why haven't you come to the fore sooner?

Avid fan, but have a full-time job, and if you read my comment it was a 'thought'!! When this farce falls on its a**e, this could be an option!

TsuMirren Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) It's not an option! How do you suggest we find the 500K than would be lost by Bii pulling out? What would be the interim procedure? Would you suddenly have votes for every clause of the constitution? Who would piece together the clause prior to vote? I'm sure there's more, but I'm reading a book about Barcelona and have a certain sense of reality. We have a CIC and fans who love the club, we're not in the middle of a Franco led Civil War. Get a grip, trust your fellow fan and support this! Edited June 9, 2012 by TsuMirren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a grip, trust your fellow fan and support this! They are not gifting the money, they're charging you 8%, go to Tesco bank and get it cheaper. But with getting a share in the club surely more people would take up the option, you then have something to show for your financial outlay. And it is alright for me not to support it, as it is obvious that many other fans feel the same as me! If you like dictatorships, go for it!

And dictatorship, not sure I buy that. And surely any private ownership is a dictatorship in effect? While I think you have suggested not a bad idea it's a bit late to do such a thing.

You're right it is a bit late but I have voiced my concerns from the beginning at shareholders meetings and to board members. I have never sat on the fence and many know who I am. I have also had difficulty accessing the forum until a few days ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMITCHELL Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Good luck getting a 500,000 pound unsecured loan from anyone. Pie in the sky is easy. Getting people commited is hard as the CIC have discovered but hopefully they will achieve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought! So currently the CIC bid values each share at £13.13. You are proposing that each share be bought at £20 increasing the value of each share by more than 50%. So what one of the major shareholders are you? Edited June 9, 2012 by Stuart Dickson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMITCHELL Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Yes there is still 1,000,000 to go but thats the consortiums price.They have agreed to phased payments intially 900,000 up front and then the rest over the next 3-5 years. My understanding is that if you wanted to buy the club it would cost 2,000,000 cash up front.As I said good luck with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Anonymous User Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Ok, I got a bit over excited, £13 a share, it was an example!! Just means we would pay the debt of quicker! I thought they were looking for £20 a share and no, I'm not a major shareholder, unfortunately! If it was £10 a share, you would get double your money, just an example!

ADMITCHELL Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Apparently there are 2 other takers and several other bids previously if you believe the consortium and I have little reason not to, Others opinions may differ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irrelevent. No one has offered the price that the consortium want therefore the club has not yet been sold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMITCHELL Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Yes they have or do you not believe SG when he says they have had bids for the club that meet the asking price but the consortium didn't wan't to sell to that particular bidder.

FTOF Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 In a similar vein,why don't we get every St.Mirren fan to buy a lottery ticket and see if we can win a couple of million pounds. The person with the winning ticket can be the chairman,when we purchase the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I spoke to him in Blackpool in 2008. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
