I know the answer to this I think........

Is it two...? One to hold the bulb, and one to drink until the room spins around.

Unlike your good self I don`t claim to have inside knowledge, but to answer your question, as far as I`m aware there are 3 major shareholders, are you going to tell me/us that`s not the case, and if so, I`m sure you`ll tell us how many and who they are.


I look forward to your reply!

Like i thought, like many others you don't know and think it is 3 which is nothing bad as that's what the club told us publically at the fans forum etc. The answer is 4, don't believe me? Check out the who's who in last nights program for starters. I wonder why that has been kept quiet? Wink everything is slowly falling into place and Mr Blunts history in companies he is a director of makes very interesting reading Laughing
Anyway i'm not saying anything as everything i get told in the directors box is obviously bollocks and wrong according to most lol!

True to form Skellow, nothing changes, saying something without actually saying anything, I answered your question honestly, why don`t you show me the same courtesy

I have answered you honestly. There are 4 major shareholders. I just find it odd why a new major shareholder has not been announced publically, don't you? afterall surely this is a major event?

Who's this Blunt? If he's a major shareholder surely that means he's purchased shares from ATLEAST 1 of the other 3?

Check him out on companies house. He loves to invest in building and property development businesses, especially those tied to the KM2 and he will have raked in millions by doing so.
Maybe he's here to put some of his wealth into the club like the KM2 are doing in order to move the club forward, and in no way is here for anything else? /sarcasm off

No but if you like to think that then that tickles me pink and shows you up for what you are. I take it as a moderator that you have never had cause to make such a post to bring someone's attention to something that they wish to discuss with them privately.
Incidentally that ''privately'' had nothing to do with you hence the PM. Mad Are you becoming paronoid ? scratch

I see there has been no response from Filo to the fact we have a 4th major shareholder that the club kept quiet either Shocked

I'm actually shocked that the VSC haven't at least been informed and in turn told the fans anything at all regarding this, afterall this is a major thing and shouldn't be swept under the carpet.

Questions should be asked, why has a gentleman with no history in football but who has a major interest in building and property development and is also a long standing acquaintance of the KM2 as a shareholder in their previous and current businesses become a major shareholder in the club and furthermore this has not been announced by them?

To me it all stinks of him coming on board in order to make money from things outside football from future building/property developments, because believe me they are going to happen and it has been a well known topic in the boardroom for months.

There are many many shareholders without a history in football all around the country, also what is the problem with developing the areas around the ground? Top clubs all have hotels, casinos, housing developments all around their grounds it would be beneficial for the club would it not?
If he is a friend of the km2 it's surely not surprising that they've asked a friend to join them is it?

Even if this new shareholder's arrival is good for the club dickos, it should still be announced! What good is it going to do, keeping it quiet? Fans have a right to know when something important happens (and a new major shareholder is massive).

I also don't feel comfortable with shareholders who are only interested in the property and developments either... We are a football club first and foremost, we can't forget that.

Might as well be seemingly for all the interest this lot of ours REALLY have in the club these days.
We're merely just a vehicle for larger projects that are highly unlikely to make the club money but will suit the Board (and its NEW investor) as well as the greasy palmed councillors who no doubt will bend over backwards to accomodate them. Why do you think our lot jumped off the train then quickly jumped on it again at the next station.
Quite simply we don't need a Board and now have an owners club so that there is little/no interference with their future plans.
Strangely enough many of those Directors who loved this club are no longer welcome would that surprise anyone. Of course this is only me smoking my 3rd joint of the evening so don't take my word for it.......I'm probably stoned. Wink

If you`re old enough to be my father, you should have retired by now, I`ll take the compliment though, I obviously look younger than what I am

Personally i want the owners of my club to have the best interests of the club as their main priority, not their pockets. And yes there is nothing wrong with developing be it at the Keepmoat or the land where the training ground is Shocked , what does sicken me is the fact that it seems the KM2 & Mr Blunt are only here for that very reason and to line their pockets as the KM2 weren't bothered before we got the stadium etc as the club was up for sale after they walked.
New major shareholder on board without even being announced and JR strangley quiet all season with Gavin Baldwin now being the 'voice' of the club, anybody else worried?
