MoodyBlue1872 3,078 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Quick background read ups - he is legit. I also feel I recognise him. Looks a similar age to me and I could swear I knew a Stuart Gibson back in the day, as my mate went to Castlehead High in Paisley and there was a Stuart Gibson who knocked about with him. If it is the same one I remember he was a massive Robert Prytz fan at the time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My concern is they are So big that if they, let's say, throw 20m at us and see no value in it after a few years, they'd just go "fuck this, ditch that lot and recoup what we can". Think the last 8 yrs has made me a cynical cunt tbh. Its not the company that will be investing, its this guy who, and i state its a guess, will be ploughing his own money that he has made from this company, into the club The same way desmond is at the tarriers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEPPS BOY 73,909 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 If he has 20bn then i’d expect him to pump at least half of that into club. Mbappe for right sided forward Haaland to replace Alfie Davies to replace Borna Kante to replace Halliday Koulibaly to replace Edmundson. Could sign Neymar too but he’s a bit Catholicly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m told Jackson’s article is broadly accurate. He’ll buy King’s shareholding for whatever price they agree - obviously that will go into King’s pocket, not ours. He’ll then be part of the £20m share issue planned for the summer (not withstanding coronavirus impact) which will also include existing shareholders, 3 Bears, C1872, Woldhardt etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Welcome Stuart. All looks positive and hopefully the start of a new era with ongoing improvement and taking no more shit. Being a supporter an added bonus. Taigs will be checking his associations with the OO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythebestest 2,145 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 £35 million is the minimum required investment in the playing squad on transfer fees alone in the next window. If he's got that, plus money for the wage increase, welcome aboard. If he doesn't, can we please at least try and find someone who does? The time for fucking about is over. If I'm dreaming, so be it. But I wouldn't be selling to the first person interested if they don't have the funds required to actually catch up. If we're honest, plenty of players in this team need upgraded.
