As per usual Syd doesn't know what he's talking about. 1. Agilo were the ones who put the club into admin. 2. It was £6m for the ground. 3. As someoine else has stated, the club were hemorrhaging money until we got to the prem. Expect Ian J to pop with the fact that CPFC 2010 took out a debenture, but forgets that you need liquidity behind you to actually take out a debenture. God, you really are a tedious little pedant, aren't you? Yes, Agilo put the club into administration but had CPFC2010 wanted to acquire directly from Jordan at any point, they could have done so thereby saving both the club and Jordan from that particular humiliation. OK: Agilo technically put the club into administration and CPFC 2010 allowed it to happen because it was in their financial interests to do so. 2. Yes, the club were losing money but when you're an entrepreneur you back yourself to spot a losing business and turn it around. That's why they bought us and that's what they've done. When you have a net worth of over 200m pounds, liquidity probably isn't a problem. Less Plane, more Plain Dull.
1. There is no 'technichally' about it, it was Agilo. For your information SP did approach Jordan but Jordan being Jordan, refused his help. Bit of an egotist Jordan, does that ring any bells with you? 2. Cor, thanks for letting me know how the business world works, I'm eternally grateful Anyway bubble, hopefully we can get back to the minute by minute updates from the hospital/training ground/Beckenham Wimpy Speak for yourself, not for the rest of us. I don't know him, but find Syd consistently one of the most interesting, reasoned and well informed posters on here.

If you are referring to the net worth of our four saviours, Parish, Long, Hosking and Browett (apologies if any spelling incorrect) I think you will find that their net worth is more like £700 mill but whilst they put money in, they also said that CPFC was a business and as such had to be run as such. Although frustrating at times, especially in the early days they have done a superb job and looked after the finances magnificently in the face sometimes of pressure to buy players that as it turned would have been a nightmare; Caulker springs to mid as one. Also keeping their nerve with AP is worth a mention. What is also important is the fact that we have fans with comparatively low and sensible expectations who are mainly grounded due to two bouts of Administration. Net worth changes day-to-day along with the value of investments. The figure I gave was the most conservative I could imagine. I can quote credible sources valuing Hosking at anywhere from 190m to 350m. Parrish and Long are both worth between 25m and 60m (again, depending on your source; Long maybe a little bit more.) Browett is playing with the big boys! Doesn't really matter; my point was simply that when you're talking telephone numbers whatever problem you have, liquidity isn't likely to be one of them.

This is like waiting for your kid to be born. So excited but s***ting it at the same time that something might go wrong.I probably will cry too when it's announced.

Plane -- to save time and avoid further pettiness, if you want to live life as my own private stalker be my guest. I'll take it as a compliment of sorts. But henceforth fire away without expecting me to engage. I'm just going to ignore your posts.

Spoilsport, you two were quite entertaining and took away from the tension of waiting for this goddamn signing to occur......
