Quote Starbug="Starbug"Thats the point Keith, nobody knows, because at this moment the ' interested ' parties would not all seem to want to show their ' hands ' , so the best way to resolve this problem would be a shareholders meeting, where in essence they can decide the ' call '
Then the ' freely known around town ( I obviously need to ' get out ' more ) people ' can decide their ' bet ' or ' raise ' , but still commit to showing their cards'"

We have spoke and I'm a cards on table person so I won't hide I am one of the potential new investors.
I have stated to a club official that I'm willing to play a part in a NEW set up if I feel it's right.
My hope was that someone by now would have addressed the shareholder situation and either got at least a yes or no from all on the basis of will you either come back on board and invest the same as other potential investors??? or will you give up your shares???
When I say a new set up if Keith Phil and/ or anyone else want to sit on a board fine but i personally will expect them to at least match my investment over a an agreed term either 3 or 5 years regardless of any old or new issues.
If not willing to do so then leave or I will it's simple really.
I will not speak about who else is or isn't involved as its not my place to but I will say i haven't moved from my original view that it needs to ideally be NEW people with no previous IMO to avoid all the politics and connections to the past if it's to ever break the mould and succeed.
Central to my involvement and investment will be share release and also a fan focused mentality and a break from the historic tried and failed route. By this I mean getting people like yourself with great ideas back on some rung of the ladder and creating a structure that is long term and community/ fan orientated one.
Trust this clarifys my position which Trevor and the other potential investors are aware of.
While there are things not best served to post on here I don't do secret service and don't judge books by covers I will form my own opinions and keep an open mind on people but I will decide at he end of the day who I feel I can and can't work with and if I'm not convinced its right for the town and people of Leigh I will stand aside and let people crack on.
