Why does tb not convert his investment into shares now?

[Return of the Rev]

Surely the value of the club now would enable him to take a near 100% of the club? His input at the moment £100 million stadium, £15 million training facilities,£16 million losses,so his commitment must be 130-140 million, would this not be the value of the Albion now? If promoted would the value not double? Surely if anyone should be able to make a potential profit in the future it should be tb? Or is it not that simple?

I am sure Bloom will be reading this board at some point to pick up some financial tips.

I'm sure he has a good reason for not doing it,just intrigued as to why

Most COCKish reply of the day - So Far!

Can he move the goalposts on when he can convert his investment into shares, without the agreement of the other directors?

I have no idea, just a thought.

 

[Hillian1]

I have no idea about financial matters really but a guy I was talking to recently, some sort of investment banker type, said exactly the same thing.

I doubt it. I suspect the EU thread has already knocked this into a COCKed hat.

And your response will run it close.

I was talking to a guy from Steyning, who suggested that TB gets all his financial tips from NSC. At the time I thought he was a bit of a cock, but now I'm not so sure.

That might explain the loss of 8 million per year

Ooops. Looks like I have crossed the Shoreham Beach mafia ............. sorry chaps. Carry on.

No way is the Albion worth £140m

SO HE COULD OWN 100% AND WE WOULD STILL OWE HIM MONEY OR WOULD HE OWE HIMSELF MONEY?

No offence intended DKM. My intention was to treat the subject with the gravity which it deserved, - er very little

That reply suggests that you believe there is nobody on here that could be of any help to TB on money issues. Interesting stance.

I suppose ownership,operating loss and things like that deserve to pushed aside while the ball boy issue is thrashed out

He's into delayed gratification. He also loves Tantric Sex.

NO-ONE would pay £ 130 M for a Professional Football Club in the current climate, there are clubs like Portsmouth in Admin who can't find a buyer when their debts are of a similar order of magnitude.

If the club were promoted, it would require further investment to improve the playing squad in the short term.

TB doesn't view his investment as a short term 'punt', he's in it for the long haul. You should be very happy that he isn't converting his investment into shares, because it's keeping people like the Venky's, the Chainrai's and the Glaziers etc, well away from our club.

No offence taken my favourite lunchtime snack.

Actually to be fair to the Rev - it is an interesting question. Not that I really understand it all.

I couldn't be arsed to wait for him, so wiped off on one of his teatowels and quietly left him going 'Ommm' and listening to Fields of Gold.
