Re: 'THe NEW OWNER' speculation thread.

I was talking to a Barrister in Manchester a couple of weeks back, and he told me a friend of his was interested in buying Stanley but that Eric was asking too much money, wish i'd took more interest in his friends name now!!

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: 'THe NEW OWNER' speculation thread.

Do we really want people buying the club who have not already had some input into the club! I would want Dave O' Neil general manager of the club came along ealier with the recording of every stanley home match or Ilyas wanted to take over before but Eric said no, Paid money to name the stand! because 62' could happen again if its in the wrong hands! I belive Eric would not sell to someone who he did not belive had the best interestsof the club at heart and can only take the club foward!

Re: 'THe NEW OWNER' speculation thread.

Erics the chairman and owner... Bit quick on the buzzer some people

Doesnt anyone understand the press release... eric has accepted an offer.. that makes sure everyone knows its up for grabs... then they go on to make damm sure everyone in the world knows its not a done deal..

Am I the only one reading between the lines... its a for sale sign... either the don hasnt come up with the goods hence the delay thats already been.. or its one last throw of the dice to get a better offer.

Wakey wakey!

Least ways... Erics the boss.. lets not be slapping so called new owners on the back just yet.. its dissrespectful...


PS I posted last year that it will be a sad day for stanley if eric steps down.. that day is looming.. we are losing a chairman who we know loves the club.. takes far too much care over money and has given everyhting to taking the club into the football league.. its madness to suggest eric is responsible for every little thing that annoys you at the club... eric is responsible for what the club has achieved..

I hope all the deals fallm through and eric stays.. better the devil you know..

Just my opinion... dont go crying to yer mates about it

Agree with most of your post K-P, But like Mullers, Eric must one day move on And I am sure that he will get the best deal and leave it in safe hands Do think you maybe right about the "For Sale Sign" , he even mentioned the "Text" he had received when he was talking to Gordon Burns - nice move from Eric

Re: 'THe NEW OWNER' speculation thread.

I am with you on this k-p what Eric has done for the club is unforgetable! I am nervous about new people taking over because will they put money they have not got in the transfer kitty than they don't look like eric! Which will than lead us to debt and back to 62' i hope Eric stays longer but am all up for investers putting money in the club transfer kitty

Re: 'THe NEW OWNER' speculation thread.

also agree with most of that K-P, impression i got from his interview was a very sad guy,who has taken stanley as far as he humanly can, and is reluctantly selling, also got the impression that he will leave the club in what he views safe hands. i thought the guy was near too tears. we shall have to see.

I'll never forgive Eric for Eastwood Hanley away, in 1986 (I think it was)

Re: 'THe NEW OWNER' speculation thread.

Telegraph today

'accringon stanleys second biggest shareholder, Ilyas Khan, has declared his interest in rivalling the ofer of Dave O'Neil, to buy the club'

the article then goes on to not prove the rumour.


then there's an interview with Coley on how the takeover won't affect the team but hopes it will lead to additional funds for a promotion push next year.
