Do you really have to resort to being so disingenuous? I have presented no conspiracy theory. Your words again. I have expressed an opinion.
It is my opinion that Caisley's intervention served to fatally undermine whatever plans the then-board had. I suggest any argument that he did not realise the effect his intervention was likely to have does not itself bear scrutiny. Nenertheless I have no idea what the motives behind the nature and timing of his intervention were, although the timing was at best extremely extremely unfortunate in my opinion. I see others have separately expressed the same opinion, on this forum and elsewhere, so they must feel the argument DOES in fact bear scrutiny.
You choose to hold a different opinion, and that is your right. But I'd kindly ask for a bit more honesty when attributing opinions or statements to me.

| You're an influential poster who has presented a sequence of events in support of your 'opinion' that Hood and Co had a plan/investment and that CC timed his intervention to scupper those plans. This suggest that he has first and foremost acted spitefully and not in the best interests of the club, or even, in his own best financial interests.
I've challenged this. That we don't agree is self-evident but how is this disingenuous?

| Surely if Hood had a plan in place to save the club before Caisley stepped in, then he could publish said plan.
ie we had x and y lined up to invest x and y amounts of cash, we where going to cut costs here and there. But then when Caisley stepped in x and y lost confidence that their investments would be safe or wanted to see the counter arguement.
Whilst I agree Caisley may see administration as the best option, it may actually have been the only option.
If there were said investors why did they not invest during the weeks the fans were pooring money into the club??? Surely if the £1m was all that was required when the investors saw the fans hitting £400k that would be the time to move.
I have no self interest in this, from day 1 it seamed a little strange to be asking the fans for 500k without any plan for the other 500k. If there was a plan then why did they not let the fans know, it would have helped move the fund raising along, they may even have got more investors on board than they needed, if the money was going to be in place.

| Well we are where we are.
Wonder how long it'll be before we hear anything concrete about the future? The wages are due on 14 June apparently so I would expect something before then unless anyone knows different.

They'll be no announcement till Saturday at the earliest I'm guessing. Probably Monday to complement the victory over Leeds.
