Could i ask where you got the info from that Gareth Roberts is the fourth bid that you tweeted.

micks tweeting that green bidding via a third party.

Aaah so Mick tweeting yesterday it was definitely Gareth Roberts turned out to be accurate. The mans a fraud and just leads fans on twitter along to inflate his ego.

I wouldn't believe a word he says.

Why would people be surprised the Green would use a third party to try and regain control, that way he doesn't
Need to pass fit and proper test.

There is absolutely no transparency in this process. You have the administrators saying everyone has signed NDA but he can't keep his face out of the press with his weekly "we're nearly there" statements. He still needs to put the bids to the creditors who will have a big say in this.

Wouldn't it be nice to have some type of open forum in front of any interested parties so these bidders can get grilled by the very people they will be relying on for ongoing income, namely the fans.

No, I don't really think it would be a good idea at all, for two basic reasons - first it would take an eternity and it's taken long enough already for me, and second, if the bidders had to put up with a lot of the twitterati in their earholes for an hour or so they might well pull out en bloc.

It would be nice but fans are like any other customers of a business. It would be akin to the local takeaway going into admin and asking everyone who bought a kebab every week to question the prospective owners

Or people are hearing snippets from people directly involved and they are being used (willing or unwittingly) to share what the 1St party can't. It happened in both our previous admins, we had some new posters on here with info who then disappear just as quickly.

....or it could be in there heads too...

I'll wait until I see the result before i belive any of these "facts" I just hope it's done one way or the other before Christmas.

Surely the NDA ares around particular bidders commenting, not the administrator saying things are generally progressing well?

It's looking doubtful and with the administrator now favouring bids, obviously to look after his paymaster, it's getting rather frustrating for some behind the scenes.

Roberts has made a bid. Lamb made a bid but pulled out. Caisley wanted to but couldn't raise the required funds.

One of the bidders who agreed to clear all the debts has had his bid not considered because it a agrees to pay back creditors 'months' rather than 'weeks'.

I'm leading no one on, if you listened to my show you'd fully understand the position people like myself and Simon Parker are in.

If you don't like what you see, hit the block button. It'll save you a lot of the hassle.

If that is true, then how very depressing.

Given the sums involved months seem reasonable. It's getting tricky and I'm thinking we will end up with not the best backer due to outside factors
