The Takeover Thread - Recon Group - NOW WITH NEW POLL

[cdbearsfan]

That's what I expected. The posts are an assault on the eyes.

I'd rather read The Bells Are Ringing.

Now, now.  Don't say anything in the heat of the moment that you might regret latter.



Actually you're right.

Does albody else read alftitimus' posts in the style of a Stuart Hall match report on 5live?

Not comparing to two or suggesting anything sinister at all but, you know what I mean?

It's more Ron Manager for me.

"Small boys, jumpers for goalposts. Gary Lineker eh ? Crisp thief ! But can you imagine that face contorted in sexual ecstasy ?"

[The Laughing Policeman]

Judging by the standards of his posts I reckon alftitmus could be Gregg Evans.

[cheltenhamlion]

I won't quote him as his posts are horrific but I do wish Alf would piss off and play somewhere else.

Same here.

What is uncomfortable is that the fact whenever he posts, people 'attack' him immediately. He has an unusual style of posting, yes, but that doesn't mean he can't share his views on here like everyone else - if you don't wish to read them, don't - there's absolutely no need to pick at him or insult him.

[cheltenhamlion]

He has a horrendous style of posting and is a pompous prick to boot.

Rubbish, if it was just an 'odd' style of posting it would be irritating enough but that's not a crime. However, even ignoring all of the multi-coloured font nonsense he takes it upon himself to insult everybody else, so quite frankly, brings it upon himself.

And yet he refuses to amend his style to something more readable.  It's not as if this hasn't been mentioned before.

It's not his style that causes the problem, it's that he says things like:

get some testosterone and stand up.

- because people don't think that Hollis' sole purpose is to bullshit to the fans
and

English Comprehension is not your strength?

Too bad

- when someone (in an admittedly poor way) questions what he's going on about.


I'f you're going to act as if your some genius who is sharing their enlightenment with the plebs then you can't complain if people call you out on it.

What are his bloody views though? I honestly cant tell. Ive re-read his last one and it feels like im in GCSE English and  trying to decifer shakespeare again. What I can tell though is that he appears to now being insulting as well as strange. He has moved from being harmless like Villakicks and footyskillz to well...actually, thinking about it, I may have better use of my 3 insult strikes....

This is brilliant

One post about the Google-Chinese-Billionaire-Hunt...
and the next 5 pages are about a Google-US-Billionaire-Hunt

I'm not  that influential   

Just shows why some other observers see us as fickle and really simple-minded.

CONCENTRATE on HOLLIS...his statements, and his discrepencies.

Forget Googling billionaires and discussing their affairs, how is that relevant to US ?

Jeez.... HOLLIS is the key...his PR Spin and obfuscation is what we need to unravel.

1) Nobody doing Due Diligence...check
2) No Manager in place...check
3) Retained list due soon.... who decides? ...check
4) Really O Riley still here - and his wife...check
5) We are mushrooms and play with Google search...check

Come on guys...get some testosterone and stand up.


 

We know that there are several interested parties so why wouldn’t 2 different possible parties be discussed? It’s inevitable that a public forum is going to speculate as to who they might be.

Hollis is going to be limited as to just what exactly he can say so analysing everything he does and says to death may not be the best way to spend time.

How do we know that due diligence isn’t being done? As I understand it, there’s no obligation to make such an announcement as we’re owned by a private company and there may be no announcement about a preferred bidder or one party being given exclusivity.

The fact that there’s still no manager in place could actually be an indicator that a deal isn’t far away. If we were miles away, wouldn’t the more prudent business decision be to appoint someone so that business can proceed as normal until a deal is done?

No idea what you mean by a retained list. O’Reilly shouldn’t be the current board’s decision – there needs to be a dialogue between any potential new owner and any new potential manager as to how the recruitment process should work and who should head it up.

The arrogant, snide comments about posters aren’t warranted.

We get an update from Hollis/Club about once a month, give or take and even then it's naturally extremely non-commital.  We are of course going to go looking for any additional information that we can get - it;s human nature.  Please don't criticise people who care for wanting to hear more information about the club's future.

Not particularly helpful chelts. His posts maybe objectionable for a number of reasons, but leave out the abuse please.
