Couldn't agree more! This whole thing will be keeping LJ up at night, he's as anti private ownership as they come.....

Very odd bit of business.

I think there is good reason to suspect that this takeover balances on a knife edge...if it doesn't happen there will no doubt be a smoke screen deployed as to why.

No mention of takeovers in July 29th meeting and then 3 weeks later there has been 3 approaches to buy the club..Just like London buses!

It is their club not ours.

I get the impression that the r&r takeover was to big to brush under the carpet by the board. In time details of these other bids will come out.

I'm sure R&R's side would like people to believe that.

Nice bit of negotiation sabre-rattling.

Not sure if they'll really need to do much sabre-rattling when the club is being sold for a nominal sum.

No, but maybe for negotiators old habits die hard?

I thought LJ was brought in as "independent" secretary and not as a board member. Surly, if this is the case, he is not allowed to make any proposals but attends the meeting to take the minutes and nothing else
