pcbear 10,913 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Paul Murray. Douglas Park , John Bennett, Scott Murdoch are the ones i found by googling, one report when describing John Bennett says there are 10 who are the rest? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM1872 3,708 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Was there not a particular "wealthy fan" involved? Not a businessman or anything as far as I can think, just a fan with substantial wealth? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef 436 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'm curious about this, certain poster has claimed they could outbuy other parties ten times over? Although you keep asking and they choose not to answer Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you keep asking and they choose not to answerAnyone who could buy Brian Kennedy ten times over sounds like a good option. Of course, they have LOTS of money, but it is just a bit easier if they borrow more from ticketus, with interest rates, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbear 10,913 Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 I thought i would have easily found a list of 10 when i thought just how little i knew about them, Murray and Douglas Park were the only two off the top of my head, the other ones i found were from articles on 12/03/2012.

j1mgg 3,766 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 It is pretty bad if these guys are so wealthy and there is 10 of them they can't even top a bid of 11.2m. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Shaw 30,453 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Is it possible that TBK are playing down the level of money available to them to avoid paying out more to creditors, then when the club emerge from administration the big money men who untill then have remained unknown and in the background will step forward and pump some serious working capital into the club .. or is that just wishful thinking on my part ?

I don't want to pay money into the club to pay off someone who has managed to avoid being part of a CVA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanjo 26,328 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'd like to think whoever takes over the club acknowledges the situation and won't expect any sort of 'payment' until we are running at a non-european profit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
