Wonder if he was asked to show proof of funds?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,

Who essentially gifts £1 million to a football club for which they've no emotional connection?  His motivation just doesn't compute, unless he's so keen to improve his reputation that he'll throw money at the most desperate of businesses.

If he's got a spare £1m to donate to us, why isn't he using this money to as he quoted 'clear his name'  ?

I can’t remember the article number but when Mike Parker bought the shares he triggered it.

“Under the current PLC rules once a shareholding gets to 30%+ they must make an offer to all other shareholders at the highest price paid.”

£1m of shares is well over 30% - why would it not trigger this time?

Wouldn't buying £1 million in shares have triggered him having to make an offer for everyone else's? Like what happened to Mike Parker when Fenty snaked him.

And where would this convicted felon's money have come from?

Think it’s 51% not 30. The threshold is when you can outvote all the other shareholders put together.
