I posted what i was told. If thats true or not remains to be seen. I personally thought the thonmas cook thing would be a good deal if true. Im in the dark as much as others.

That's a report from LE.

I'm a keen TRLer and I'm sure that there are no posters on there with anything like the inside knowledge of some on here.

Disingenuous. The report was actually in LE, and quoted Hood as saying by the weekend that "Over £300k" had already been collected. A whole whopping three days or so after the first call-in.

The reference to some people coughing up was, I think, to the very occasional comment in various places about not being prepared to honour their commitment. And I have a suspicion that some of those comments can be attributed to [iagents provocateur.[/i

And anyway, my understanding from sources close to was that the club at the weekend was actually quite pleased with the conversion rate thus far.

Well, as we reportedly already have about £450,000 in, I'd say that the method the Bulls used was seemingly very effective, and a far better bet than your idea, which I'm sure would have led to a huge amount less pledges since many would either be unkeen to given bank details or not have any bank details to give (for just 2 reasons).


You mean no intention of paying? Well, I'm sure that there is a built-in factor, and I'd bet it is an extremely small percentage. The number of wind-up merchants prepared to go to those lengths is, I'd bet, vanishingly small as a percentage.
