Darlo Uncovered

I don't think we've heard the last of Raj and DFC. I'm certainly not going on a guilt trip as a result of that statement. Once again, though, this will divide us, and the fans will be pointing fingers at each other again. We've got to see beyond this statement and also statements like 'I've been hou...

Still doesn't answer the football share question. If the FA say they needed the football share are we to believe that the club didn't ask for it? Also, why didn't Raj go to the papers at that time to state his side of the story. Also, if he was really bothered about clearing his name, he would have ...

He says he was hounded out. I can't believe people are buying that story. There has been plenty said about this on other threads.

Which is what happened in the first place before Reynolds took over. The club was 'Sold' to Mike Peden with Reg Brealey still controlling, and the rest is history. So Lo's nightmare scenario was actually historically the beginning of the end for us. So I guess this is something we'll have to look ou...

Just a little part of me wondered if there was another side of the story from 2012 which deserved hearing from Raj. The fact that he's not prepared to overlook some public criticism to put his side makes me convinced that there isn't now. He's lost his chance, not the other way round. The way he's d...

Time to just get on with it, we do now need to move on.

Which I hope is the message that most of the fans, John Tempest and Wayne Raper will give to him too.

I can't get on the Echo website. I've reached my 'Limit'. Can anyone copy and paste it? Load an incognito page on your web browser. Sorry Les. You've lost me there. You can normally complete a non tracked web page (incognito it's know as) Echo works on this if you have ran out of views. Just done i...

Actually, Loid I don't want to know. As Gramps has said, if Raj spits his dummy out over this, however good the plans appeared to be, there would always have been problems down the line. And Robbo, I stand by my statement that the comments about social media were naive. 'Keyboard warriors' Trolls et...

Tactical withdrawal? 'The supporters group know where I am if they need my help'.

Sorry Les. You've lost me there.

Just read John Tempest's statement about 'The potential impact in public of ill-thought out comments'. Oh the irony. How about stating in a football club's programme that you don't want any money back that you have put in and then later down the line holding that club to ransom over the money. How a...

“Everybody knows where that club is going now, so I’m out of the way. They can carry on, it’s their club, they can keep it." Taken his ball home big style there. How bitter does that sound. Good timing too, no need to answer any difficult questions tomorrow. Where's that quote you have taken from Q...

Lol the other investors have walked away basically they were planning to use Raj's money by my reading of that. Oh well distraction over with back to it now. The paragraph about social media in the middle of the statement was a bit weird either way it's your move Martin Gray. The bit about social m...

He knew he wouldn't get the 75%.

Just wonder if the players will have any thoughts on their manager allegedly promoting someone to be in charge who was responsible for the club all but going bust before and not caring about fellow players. Will it have any effect on them/their relationship with MG. "allegedly" ?? Is there some dou...

The board in their statement to be fair did say that Raj has been asked about 2012 and that this will come out at the Net Café (Pre-rehearsed or not). It's somewhere in there.

Is it still up for sale? Someone told me it had been sold. It's clear we're a pawn in a game of chess here. DFC are needed as a vehicle for a reason for any land development. Question is, how much would we stand to gain, or lose, from being part of any grand plan. This will have to be bloody amazing...

From what someone has posted on another thread then Hodgy and MG have vested interests in the investment so it's not a neutral stance. We'll see on Friday then, but anyway I can't see RS getting 75% of the vote, even for this 'Zero risk' injection of cash, even if he makes a Churchillian statement o...

So shares appear to make up £321,685. So £40,000 is actually only 12% then.

So doing a bit of basic maths if 40,000 is 15%, then 100% is 266667. What does this £ 266667 equity consist of? Also, that means that 51% would be 135,000, so less than a 100k extra investment would mean over 51%.

Come on Spyman. A return to the days of Hodgy's dodgy foreigners. How could you not want that?

OK, here's my question which I've sent: Raj, there is an issue of trust with a number of fans over mainly 2 issues in 2011/2, which need addressing if we are to move forward together. Firstly, regarding a quote from yourself from the Tamworth programme on 26 Nov 11. " I'm not expecting to get back a...

I'm going to rehash your No.1 point Lo, and also the quote from the Tamworth programme, and mention trust in my question.

Well done to the board for getting it organised so quickly. Hopefully we can look back to 2012 a bit and also forward a lot as well with our questions. Will sure be interesting.

Then we can block the further investment if we don't like it. We won't though. If Raj says he will turn us fulltime to go for promotion but he needs control the club, then people will go for it at that time. If people want to vote for it then it's up to them but the end game is Raj owning the club....

I assume that'll be fundraised only when we next get promoted, or we won't be eligible for grants.

Then we can block the further investment if we don't like it.

They're lucky bastards. They progress towards being a fan-owned club without the turmoil Darlo fans have had to endure and with none of the liabilities or lack of assets. By all accounts they have accumulated substabtial debt over the past couple of seasons, 3 winding up orders in last 12 months, t...
