Vastman kept suggesting he only wanted a £1 to sell the club. I guess this means he didn’t know that to be a fact.

What he said was that he'd sell the club, with all the debts for a £1. Slightly different.

You can't lump Carter and Minnards together. Or the other two shareholders for that matter.
There wouldn't be a club without Carter but I get some don't like his budgeting
But more recently, there wouldn't be a stadium without Minnards.

You need to be more accurate with your vitriol.

If you don't know what is in the details of So1873, how do you know they want £200k and remain trustees.
Also, trustees don't make money as far as I know so not sure why that's a problem either.

I see it another way, there would not be the ground in the possession of the club without the council loaning £3.1M which in reality is the money belonging to me and every other tax payer in WMDC.
There would not be the money for Minards to build a stand without WMDC ensuring 106 Payments were made available to do so. Again money indirectly out of the pockets of WMDC tax payers.
(By the way if WMDC had done their job right in the first place we would have had far more than a stand and a slight refurbishment.)
So Technically it all belongs to the club thanks to us Tax payers. Morally I don't think it should benefit Carter and Minards in anyway whatsoever.

I suppose wouldn’t have been a stadium without Amazon either.

Be interesting how this pans out from here on in. Because if it comes out in the wash that a deal fell through due to unreasonable obstacles being put in the way by the current incumbents then natives are going to get very restless thats for sure. Lets hope it works itself out.

I guess these comment are the ideal way so no one wants the club.
Everyone who puts their hand up and hard erned income for trin deserves respect
If a new owner does read all this vitriol dont people think it might put him off putting his hand up to help.
worth a thought folk.
