PMG has screwed up his legacy,

I agree.

but I doubt he cares

I disagree.

I suspect that Peter is hurting a lot at the moment. Hurting won't change the mess though

Greg Lambert just tweeted that he has just interviewed the new owner in Costas Coffee House on the promenade.

Undersoil heating on the way eh?

[P/T Indie]

“There are just two steps left, one involving Government company law and the second, EFL acceptance of me as owner. On paper we are not the owners but as far as I am concerned we are.”

So the company law I guess they are still trying to work out who is the actual owner,

"On paper we are not the owners" hmm that's a bit of a problem then Mr Cala

Leasing the banqueting suite is sensible has he just been reading SV's?

[Gone_Shrimping]

He is right about the pitch being only fit for sheep , it is dreadful although no blame attached to Chesh and his team. They do a great job given the resources.

[Gone_Shrimping]

He is hoping to have 2 or 3 of the current board of directors on the new board. Lets hope Rod is top of the list for that.

[Seasider9601]

Lets hope Rod is top of the list for that.

Without doubt.

And a return for Nigel too hopefully.

Well, it SOUNDS promising but, given all the talk about his past, I'll hold my breath...

[P/T Indie]

The guy does come out with some god ideas but then in the next sentence comes out with something completely daft!

[halfwayprawn]

Must be ideal candidate for sv member

[shrimper]

Well, it SOUNDS promising but, given all the talk about his past, I'll hold my breath...

I'm waiting for any evidence of any kind whatsoever that this bloke does anything other than talk.
Anything.

It'd have been good for him, in all the interviews he's done, to have described and given evidence of what actual business he has ever done that might give us some confidence that what he's saying now has any substance.

[fulwoodshrimp]

I'm afraid he's a Diego Mk2. Talks a good job but...

[Shrimp Girl]

It's going to be like this until midnight tonight then....

Mike Williams one of Cala's people, you do wonder how a man from the North East gets connected with an Italian/American.

I see some of our members have been having quite a bit of correspondence with him on twitter

Not for too long I hope, we are short of fans as it is

[MfcChris]

Then Peter (IF ownership would revert to him in the above circumstances) does the sensible thing and offers to hand the whole lot over to a local consortium, made up of existing and possibly previous directors. Maybe taking a smaller amount out himself by way of sale.

Then the people we want in charge continue to run the club. There may also be people out there – locally – who may have been willing to invest previously but not while Peter was wanting whatever he originally wanted for his shares; and certainly not while all this mess was going on.

We don't want the current board to continue the mismanagement of the club as they have done for years.

... and with such an approach, it is actually possible to become the Leader of the Free World !

Mr Cala's ambitions may therefore be much greater and a sensible first step is an English League Two Football club ?

Maybe I could get a job in Cala's Underwater Casino... behind the Berlin Wall!

Are you a trained lifeguard John.

[John L]

Are you a trained lifeguard John.

No but I used to be a train guard if that's any help?

[Trevor]

MfcChris PMG has been in charge. Other directors, including some who left might have run things different if they'd had control. And they could in future.

You surely don't include the likes of Rod Taylor in that assessment

I don't think any of us do.
