Feels like that shouldn’t be too much of an issue but at this point I don’t even know.
"Issues over taking over debt and something to do with training ground are complicating it.".
I assume that RD wants some of the money owed to him left as debt. What could the issue around the training ground be?
Perhaps he thinks he can hold on to the training ground?
I raised this issue months ago as a concern however I am now convinced RD wants nothing to do with us once he sells and is not looking to be involved at all21 -
The £33M figure came from a Callum comment on page 1 of this thread.carly burn said:
Don't remember £33m being stated anywhere.Covered End said:Can anyone explain the following?
The Aussies arrived on the scene in April 2017. Their website at the time said they had £33M to buy a club.
Some time later RD & the Aussies made a joint statement on the O/S saying a price had been agreed & this has been repeated numerous times.
The price was alleged to have been around £65M and other offers have been turned away.
The Aussies filed papers with the EFL and turned up at last seasons play offs wearing scarves.
Yet another year later it is suggested they had & still have the funds to proceed, but the price has mysteriously halved to what was agreed and yet they still haven't done thr deal at half the agreed price and are possibly arguing over a £7M figure.
They were still looking for capital when I spoke to them and that was long after they first came on the scene. Late Summer 2017 I think.
£5m would have got you a seat at the table back then.
The ownership structure they had come up with was always going to create problems.
A couple of £5-10 m investees walk away because they don't like the sound of something and they're scratching around again. Would have been a bloody nightmare had they managed to buy the club first!
Although they sounded like a nice bunch, the whole Aussie thing sounded like another bloody experiment.0 -

The training ground upgrades RD was carrying out/planning to carry out ever get finished? Maybe if they’re unfinished the new buyer wants the price adjusted etc... for the unfinished work?3

Does he just mean the £7m owed to the ex-directors and the charges they have over the ground and training ground. That old chestnut!Scoham said:

While this 1st July date might be convenient for the accounts, it's hardly a fixed deadline. Very few takeovers are made on that date, they happen when they happen1

Deloitte might have been good once, but they're bloody shite now. Worked with them a number of times of late - Mainly their digital branch mind.
