With Jim White asking Daily Mail'sque questions, this almost feels like a low level chat that we do not associate with TS in the way he's conducted himself since the beginning of this journey.
In a world full of Jim White’s, thank god for Simon Jordan.
Very interested in the libellous claim that Sandgaard hasn’t put any money in and is funding the club with player sales. We’ll see if there’s a lawsuit for that.
Is it libellous or inaccurate ?
We’ve had fairly big windfalls from the Bonne sale + the Grant sell on and the salary cap reduces the ability to spend so it might be that Sandgaard hasn’t actually needed to invest funds yet. No issues with that from my perspective.
I’d say libellous, unless TS is lying about us being days away from administration before the deal was done, he must have pumped some money in.
He also had money in escrow before the takeover was completed, so it’s a pretty safe bet that at least £1 of this has been used for general maintenance/ those new lawnmowers he’s purchased. Not to mention shipping costs of the Zynex medical devices
Yes we’ve had income from player sales but it’s not even a half truth to assert that Sandgaard hasn’t put any money in and is relying on the clubs cash.
Exactly he may have re-couped cash but he spent first...
We also know that he was prepared to splash out on a striker, but we were turned down.
Elliot and Farnell seeking a cut from the Grant and Bonne money.
Good on TS if he has brought stability without investing anything .. gives potential funds for January or if we get promoted establishing ourselves in with a decent squad in the Chsmpionship.
Gallen confirmed that in his interview. That the Schwarz fee was bigger than anything they’d spent in the past.
Brilliant responses from Sandgaard. I like that he didn't hide his disdain for Jim White's ridiculous questions. Asking him if he's aware of the claims Paul Elliott made in a letter that was sent to him; does White seriously consider himself a journalist?? I don't like that White has decided to use this platform to sensationalise the story beyond what it already is but I suppose we should be happy that it was at least an opportunity for Sandgaard to remind us how professional and in control he is
Why doesn't Jim White get Elliott on and let SJ ask some questions of him? It beggars belief that he puts a loudspeaker to the lies these clowns feed him without ever holding them accountable in return.

They can even do it pre-recorded if they like, something Southall used to get quite passionate about

No way Elliott agrees to that. He won't ever put himself in a position where it's even possible to be challenged in person.

Elliott wouldn't even agree to an interview with Cawley despite (i believe Cawley said) repeated requests, so no chance he goes on national radio.
Just listen to TS on there and if you don’t fall in love then you’re a better more controlled person than I am , There’s a real genuine danger that I’m gonna cheat on SCP with TS and there’s something I never thought possible .

Exactly, so Jim White shouldn't be amplifying his rubbish through the media, and trying to hold people like TS to account based on what he says, when he won't even be interviewed himself
What mostly just irritates me is that we have finally turned a corner...but still get some prick opening his mouth and attempting to cause a disruption. This season is already better then last season!
We are on good form and could actually potential win this league. It's a possibility. Easier said then done though and we also have the January transfer window around the corner.
Dickheads like knobhead Paul Elliot are just getting in the way and disrupting things.
For once, it should just be about the football.
The manager and players probably end up hearing this crappy unnecessary drama.
They just want to concentrate on what's important.

If it's inaccurate and defamatory then it is libelous.
Big windfalls? Are you sure? Grant sell on is coming over the 6 year term of his new contract. What proportion of the Bonne fee is up front? Those two might have generated one month's salaries and overheads receivable to CAFC so far - if WBA and QPR are both bang up to date with their obligations..?

Right but I don’t think that relying on the clubs cash is a negative thing. A club living off of its own means is a sustainable model, that’s exactly what I want.
What is nonsense is for any of the parties who have recently been involved to try and suggest that they would have had a better operating model for us, they wouldn’t.
Definitely not a negative thing, it’s a sustainable business model and I’m all for it - it’s just not exactly true.
The libel comes in because Farnell is using the biggest sports station around to spin that Thomas Sandgaard hasn’t put any money in and is using player sales to keep the club afloat. That’s defamation of character and could impact the club’s or Sandgaard’s future business.
I repeat.....I am not altogether 100% certain that White meant to say Sandgaard when referring to not having put any money in.....I think maybe he meant to say Elliott. Might be wrong, but the moment he said it I immediately thought he’s got the names mixed up. Anyone else think the same?
Comments
Not a dig at TS, nor am I saying he has come in just to sell players, but with the Grant/Bonne money I doubt he has to put any in yet.
The difference of course is that he has proven funds to the EFL within 5 minutes, something ESI failed to do in several months.
That will do for me.
Now let's all take some deep breaths and enjoy this season (COVID-19 permitting)
Thomas Sandgaard is the breath of fresh air. Paul Elliotttttt has Halitosis.
There’s a real genuine danger that I’m gonna cheat on SCP with TS and there’s something I never thought possible .
