The thing about them is they took over a club broke, don’t we have millions in the bank for a rainy day? Cork City in Ireland just sold their club to a local businessman over there, other then Pa Brown do we have sponsors whose directors have ever shown interest in joining the board or making an investment in the club. We own our ground plus don’t have the creditors knocking at our door, that’s got to be two great selling points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks a good prospect for asset strippers. Will have to rely on Geoff doing due diligence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintgscot Posted May 15, 2023 Report Share Posted May 15, 2023 From what I’ve been told by a reliable source is plenty of enquiries but nothing other than that. The story in courier about the American consortium is a load of rubbish because they havnt even spoke to Geoff. Also I hope they don’t get rid of the ground at all. We make more money from funerals than we do from rangers and Celtic. So if we move we could lose that income. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I viewed it differently TBH. A board put together probably for legal reasons and administrative purposes until the new owners come in was my thoughts a bit like the management also.

CEO ,ex director who retired for health reason previously - This is incorrect, played a part in his decision but ultimately was not the reason he chose to stand down previously. Regardless, he's fighting fit now, loves the club as much as any of us, quite honestly the best decision that has been made up there in years is getting Stan back to guide the ship in the interim. Alan Storrar ex sponsor whose previous business was wound up in October 2021 - Also not true, Alan chose to retire so wound up the business through choice, business was successful but just decided that he had had enough and wanted to take things a bit easier. Roddy Grant , ex professional footballer who hass been at club for years. Have faith in Geoff to do what's right for the club and the supporters but worry that he is a bit of a one man band.

He has had time to reflect on his mistakes. Now he will perform better. I wonder how the game will be affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be an interesting comparison, maybe @Smarmy Arabknows? Had a quick Google around but can't see a figure anywhere. I don't know the ins and outs of what United's assets were, but I'd assume Saints have a lot more land and also a lot more money in the bank?
