I read that and was slightly worried that it says Fenty has set a deadline for Friday. He has set the deadline?? They have given him an incredibly generous offer, so what is the Friday deadline all about? Just take the offer John.

It could be he has thrown something else into the mix, or he wants to try to be top dog to the bitter end, but the quicker this is resolved the better for all our nerves.  



I think you are getting worried about nothing here There is no indication at all that anyone has set any 'deadlines' as such

I suspect Fenty means he wants it all signed and sealed (possibly including payment but thats not unreasonable) by New Years Day, all finished in 2020 in other words, nice and tidy.

The quoted report from @TVFTL states:

"The takeover is back on, all parties are back in touch, Fenty has given a deadline of Friday the 1st of Jan."

He should have accepted the previous offer. He’s done well screwing £200,000 out of the trust as it is. He should give that money back if he gets paid in full for all his shares.

Its a figure of speech, he wants it sorted and done (quite understandably perhaps after the bile and hatred thrown at him this week) It does not mean 'Friday or I'm out' and even if there was an element of that its just more brinksmanship (which both parties have amply demonstrated and I think it's Fenty's turn again after the last Shutes statement)


Don't panic Captain Mainwaring!

Well if bile and hatred has had a positive effect he can have plenty more until he’s prised completely out of the club, and hopefully the council.

I thought the same, LCL. It's a negotiation. Who does he think he is to be setting deadlines?
