the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I could in theory contact an ebay seller and bid more than you after you've already won the process. eBay auctions are fair and honest. everyone gets a chance to bid. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 did the £6m bid (from WS & co) not come in AFTER the sale had been finalised???? still a better bid for the creditors. fact is their was no open asset sale where the best value for creditors was assesed. instead d&p whytes mates sold it to his other mate ahmed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 We were only confirmed as playing football this season at the 11th hour, you seriously think we had time for yet more bidding wars, and the likes of HMRC and BDO possibly sniffing around the assets individually? what we had time for has nothing to do with what was best for the creditors. but yes we had ages. greens lot took weeks to find the cash. we had all that time at very least. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 still a better bid for the creditors. fact is their was no open asset sale where the best value for creditors was assesed. instead d&p whytes mates sold it to his other mate ahmed. The other parties involved in the bidding process had ample opportunity to get a better bid in before the sale was finalised - the fact of the matter is that they didn't. If I recall correctly, the WS & co bid was made to CG...not D&P, since CG's Group were the new owners. WS & co chanced their arm hoping that a £500k profit within 30 mins of closing the deal would persuade them to sell. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 it was made to d@p and no party had a chance to bid in an asset sale except green. a quite deliberate move from d@p designed to deliver us to green and co no matter what. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC 150 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 There was a reason Whyte was only known to show panic when it appeared D&P might not get appointed as Administrators. D&P proceeded to show all of us who feared the implications of this were correct in a blizzard of contradictory moves and statements and a lengthy facade after promising the club to Whyte's other pal (at that time at least) Green as early as February. Green himself having acknowledged he knew he'd get the club then. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 it was made to d@p and no party had a chance to bid in an asset sale except green. a quite deliberate move from d@p designed to deliver us to green and co no matter what. The other way to possibly look at it....Green was the only bidder to put a full & proper offer on the table. By this I mean, he included a course of action should a CVA fail. From memory, none of the other bidders appeared to do this (it certainly wasn't made public). He submitted the offer stating that should a CVA fail, he will buy the assets @ £5.5m. The other bidders appeared to only include a figure for the CVA. To include both senarios, is surely the best option for the creditors etc - everyone is clear what is going to happen. We don't know what the other bidders @ the time had planned if the CVA failed....would they still of have had the cash to purchase the assets??? CG put forward a proposal that covered all bases & was accepted. I don't know one way or the other if this was part of a grand plan or not, but IMO, it was the best offer put to D&P. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 and that was because d@p set it up that way. if we stick to the facts we know for a fact their was no open asset sale. that in itself rules out d@p doing what was best for creditors. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calgacus 8 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Hopefully the Liquidators investigations will reveal the truth - though it could be years before it is finalised 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
