messageboard wouldnt be any fun at all for me if i didnt... every post I make is designed to get a reaction

I dont care too much about the behind the scenes stuff as all the possibilities dont amount to millions in the bank for players... personally i would prefer Ilyas to own the club.. he has been around a long time (not calling him old.. you know what i mean) and has proved IMHO what he says about his money and the club.. his interest is the club.. not making money.. just making the club what it should be.. but i cant effect that so...

To be perfectly honest i have the same worry about the club as I have had for the last few months... why no seats in the clayton end yet? 8 working days left then we are out of the league if not finished

Also if you where thinking of investing in the club wouldnt you wait until the seats are in and we have the all clear for next season before you commited?

BTW Pete you amde the question a nice bright colour.. but didnt answer it

Just over a fortnight ago, Eric was quoted in the local press saying that another un named bidder had come forward with an offer, I for one would welcome finding out who that may be(however I somehow doubt we will!), or at the very least an update on progress,if any,made.

As I stated in my post, it would be good to go into the closed season knowing where the club stands,re ownership, and a rough idea of what the future holds.

These two points would make me happy!

But Ilyas says he doesnt want to buy the club.. so it cant be him..

If a reissue of shares is made as per Ilyas idea (and he buys 200k without buying ownership or the majority).. He says he doesnt want to own the club and happy for david to run it... But that means Eric still owns the club and he no longer wishes that to be the case.

1) Eric wants to sell so doesnt want to own the club

2) Ilyas has stated quite clearly that he doesn't want to own or run the club

3) David seems to be the only one who wants to own it (Although I would ahve it if they are giving it away)


So what exactly does everyuone want to happen that can keep everyone happy?

Is the statement "I do not want to own the club" not just to not put people's noses out of place i.e. The D ON ? Could it not mean - at the end of the day I (I K) want what is best for the club, that said if it means D ON incharge and me behind the scenes. Surlely he would not mind owning the club if that was the best thing for Stanley... Just a thought.........

The statement as I remember it from E W on the tv was :- Just had a text from somebody saying "Do not do anything until you have spoken to me" does not mean they wanted to buy! But, maybe just wanted to invest in the club in some way.....

Apologies in advance if i've got it wrong, but thought that what he said.....

Two things am worried about

1. Longer this take-over takes to complete - More time other clubs have a chance to come in and offer contracts to the likes of Edwards/Kenny/Jimmy/Procter/Turner. I for one would be unhappy if this happened as we would get no cash for them and we have got a good team to build on this year.

2. How it seems the club are ignoring someone who wants to invest money into the club and has openly said he will put £200k in! Surely £200k is better than nothing, They could atleast reply to his letters even by email, only takes a few seconds.

It's my understanding that as long as we offer the players new contracts, we are owed compensation if they decide to join another club.

I thought that Ilyas had said that although he didn't particularly want to own the club, he would step in if The Do'ns bid failed?

IMHO the best bet would be for The Do'n to carry on and then for Ilyas to buy up everything else and become 2nd majority shareholder. At that point they should both sit down and thrash out a five year plan as to what they both want from the club and how best to acheive that. Once that is finalised then it's time for an open and honest (start as you mean to go on?) public forum as to how best to move forward. Involve the various Supporters Groups and we can all work together towards specific goals.

Khan would be prepared to purchase Whalley’s shares if a satisfactory deal fails to occur, saying: “If David has not got the money, or has lost the bottle – then I will step up.”
