bigfatjoe1 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 talking to five groups....but they usually run a thousand miles once you ask them to put their money where their mouth is.....in other words, don't hold your breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozman Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 He plays it down,probably quite rightly, but this is the first time anything like this has appeared on a reputable news site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimeblue Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) No-one will invest unless they get something out of it. We sold the name of the ground and aren't exactly reaping the rewards. Hard to get too excited. New owner who buys us lock stock and then sells BP for development and moves us somewhere with more space is the only way I can see us moving significantly forward now.

Combo Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 If they want to invest they will do so not because they heard others are "potentially" thinking about it. But any investment however small is most welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I'm sure people will find something else to moan and protest about I'm not sure there's anything to moan about? The fans bask in splendid facilities and have enjoyed great success over the last few years ; the board are considered and do nothing divisive, being open to fans views and creating initiatives to continually drive the club forward and increase the fan Base. How can anyone complain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie_J Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Sounds like a 'leave Corney alone' story to me. Nothing to see here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardie Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Sounds like a 'leave Corney alone' story to me. Nothing to see here. Could be a 'smoke and mirrors' story. "We are in talks..." Nothing happens. "Don't get too excited..." They spring something huge on us. Glass half-full, glass half-empty. Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 My feet are firmly on the ground with this but if up to 5 parties are currently interested you would think at least 1 will come forward with a serious offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticsPete Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Didnt the statement say it was investment rather than purchase of the club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Didnt the statement say it was investment rather than purchase of the club? An investment usually means you want more than your money back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I wondered why the Latics Shop was stocking up on branded magic beans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lags Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 If these Investors want to buy the club, the whole thing, land, stand and club then Corney should be selling. Like he always claimed he would. Time for someone else to give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like he always claimed he would. Time for someone else to give it a go. He had always said he would to someone who cares about the future of the club. He won't want to see another Chris Moore come in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rigsby Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Not about a buy out though acc to the beeb. I cant imagine anyone in their right mind investing in latics with the sole aim of a return? Wheres the return going to come from? On our gates it wont be from the crowds thats for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
