gogzy 31,195 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 But then who would use the voting rights for these shares?exactly.buying shares with the RFFF money does not seem like a good idea. It should be used to fight court battles and things like that IMO.The money was never meant for buying shares AFAIK Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the RST trying to buy shares with it?If so I'd be seriously looking at ways to get the £150 I originally donated into it back out, if it's even possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Robot 21,138 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 But then who would use the voting rights for these shares?It would be complex and I'm not doubting it but could the existing/previous committee not try pull some sort of voting system together for each person who donated. I know it wasn't set up for fan ownership but £500k would buy a big part of our club and I think it's a wasted opportunity. I don't want any cash back and it seems to be sitting doing nothing but gathering dust. Even £250k would be a great investment considering the share price.

j1mgg 3,766 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I know its not asked of me, but i have bought shares in the last month or so and i would sell my original block at 89p. I would probably sell 90% of my shares, and keep the remaining amount which would still leave enough for sentimental value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Bob 1,360 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Nobody from the RST sits on the RFFF committee so no, they have never tried to use it to buy shares. Nobody? Who is on it then?

Young Bob 1,360 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Announcement to LSE annouces that it was Richard Hughes who sold his shares yesterday.That's 2.2 million. From what has been posted here he sold them in 3 transactions assuming he sold the lot. I think he got all his shares at a penny a piece so has still made a tidy profit. Anyone have the CF list of all the original shareholders with their quantity and price paid? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Rd 2,860 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hughes / Zeus previously provided £2M as part of deal with administrators. Hughes was issued with 2.2M shares as a result.
