andy steel 0 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 You hav eto speculate that this is the first step in Murray selling. He could have quit in the summer, which would have made far more sense for club stability, for timing (going out on a high) and allowed more time for a new man to come in before the season was upon us. The timing points to a new man coming in. And since we haven't heard anything from anyone recently, I think it has to be middle eastern. Purely guesswork of course. But should a cartel of Arabs start gaining the majority of UK clubs I can see the much vaunted UK League coming about. Probably wishful thinking, mind you, but it's the only way I could see it happening. Anyway, those who have wanted Murray out may soon get their wish. Fingers crossed for the next 12 months! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,883 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I don't see any reason why Murray resigning as a director points towards him selling his shares any time soon. The two would normally be done at the same time. New owners would result in a totally new board, and having two changes of chairman would cuase less stability, not more. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm not getting my hopes up regarding new investment. Things don't go straightforward for us. There'll be a few twists and turns down the line before we get a sniff of new investors. I hope this isn't the start of a new down sizing programme. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably just a continuation of the current one. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluedell 5,883 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I guess it'd be ill-fitting not to make a tribute, but even so........ 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
