I agree, at this moment in time i don't think its the best idea but time will tell.

| We are in desperate need of investment I think we should all take Andrew glover at his word, if he is prepared to step up and invest in our great club at the time when it needs it most we should welcome him with open arms.
Slagging him off and questioning his motives are not the best strategy, are we really in a position to put potential investors off.

Of course not but we need to be honest from day one, if he's looked in on this board over the last few weeks he'll understand posters views and concerns.
I don't think he'll be too unhappy with honest views mate.

| I am not too sure Al, if I had the money and was planning to buy the club after reading some of the comments on here I may think twice.

| Quote: Uptoncat "Can sympathise with your views and in an ideal world it would be great to have your (prospective) chairman telling all and sundry to the fans. However something we've all criticised in the past is the unprofessionalism of the club as a whole (Community side apart) and it doesn't give a very professional look if your chair is posting on fans forum sites.'"
what he posts is up for discussion with the fans, he might just to want to get it straight into the mixing bowl
if its done correctly its no different than the club website and which I said earlier he hasn't access to as yet

| Merlin no one is slagging the guy off. I don't mean to question his intentions however after the long garden path we've all been led up recently we're bound to be feeling vulnerable and cagey. We shouldn't just jump straight in to bed with the first company that shows us some affection. Obviously as I've said earlier its not up to us who takes over but for me lets wait until we've heard the cases of all interested parties.

I don't think anyone's slagged him off, just offered honest opinion.
We've had enough lies and false dawns in the past, and people who have enough intelligence not to be taken in have been swept away with it all.
All that glitters is not gold, beware Greeks baring gifts....
I'm happy that the auditors will do their duties, and we will get the right man (and I'm certainly not saying Mr Glover is not that man).
I'm also pleased that some people are not auditors.

| Quote: apg100 "Okay, point taken.
This is the best link into the fans of the club. You are all asking questions and I have some answers, that's all. No hidden agenda. The link through my site was purely for ease and speed. We have sent the same press release to papers and ezines, but they take time to publish. Please don't forget that there may be competition out there and I would like to get as much of a competitive edge as possible.'"
Hopefully the same will soon be said of the Supporters Trust.
Onwards & upwards together we WILL BE stronger

Good luck.

| very interesting and aggressive marketing approach Andrew... tbh I quite like it...as soon as the news is released about the administration...you take your bid and make it public knowledge..as well as using the forum to win popular support...
what this tells me that there is a fight -a bidding war, if you will - in the offing, for control of the club.
the sad thing is that we had to wait for someone to run the club into the ground before people started coming forward... despite the Crusaders situation I really do think that this administration is the last nail in our superleague life...
I hope... win or lose... you are prepared to do the best thing for the club. It will be a long road back to top flight rugby and a long haul of patience and finance.

If you do your research you will find this man as built his business up over many years and is far from a tin pot millionaire.
Not only is he one of our major sponsors this year he has already promoted our club, I understand he produced some wildcats car stickers and if you look at his tv ad he has the wildcat logo in it.
Sounds like just the kind of tin pot guy we need, or I suppose we could just keep Ted and go bust if you prefer?
