Should WST proceed to talks with potential buyers?

I think the decision should be based on what's best for the club, not if you're called a WST loon.

I can think of stronger words to describe them and if we fail to see this happening, if it's credible, I can see bad things happening.

If some of the Wst odd balls vote against this there's going to be hell to pay down the road.

I didn't realise that you were in on the discussions. You must know all about the bid to be able to vote for it without further due diligence.
I would suggest that many members are waiting to see what the future holds before buying into it and won't waste their time insulting other fans..

I'm talking about people who are already against it, without seeing any detail.

Surely the people should be naturally excited about this because it could be what we've been waiting for, however we have fan ownership supporters who are clearly against the whole idea, even before seeing what's bon offer.

I have a feeling that there's group who'll vote against this even it's a fantastic and credible offer. It's fan ownership or nothing, and they will be no better than Hamilton.

The poll is 98% in favour though Dix

Aye, I'm jst concerned about the next stage.

There can be no reason to vote no at this point. In fact those who do are potentially as dangerous to future of the club as Moss and Roberts.

The scenario you describe of a less than satisfactory deal being mitigated through WST keeping a share cant happen.

Its 100% or no deal.

How do you know its 100% or no deal? You dont. Simple.

My frustration is the opposite. Some people on RP want to sell up to anyone despite not knowing who they are or what the deal is. Any reasonable person can see the situation calls for the WST to begin discussions, the bidders unveil who they are, and we consider the offer.

Well said
