@John27
John regarding your post on the rumour someone buying up Shares with possible investment coming from them if they manage to buy Kings shares
You said someone from Scotland can I ask are they Scottish? Or just a businessman who lives currently in Scotland?

Last clue. Yes he is Scottish. Sold his business for Cora 100 million.

John, one name I've heard is from the East of Scotland, but there was also a suggestion that there could be South African interest as well. Total net worth of parties was quoted as circa £300m.

John is it Rene Buehlmann by any chance?

Ahh well that’s goes my idea for a rich Arab prince out the window. ? But seriously tho whoever it is albeit he has good intentions is obviously needed. Although if we get investment I don’t think we could just buy a load of players anyway because of FFP, our revenue is not going to be that great with no CL, so either we finish 2nd and go through the qualifiers, which I don’t think is impossible because we were a bit unlucky to get PSV twice and the 2nd time they were a lot better, we could have got a much easier tie.
Anyway I don’t think investors just pump money in for players could be for something else. I find the Newcastle situation interesting, supposedly the richest club on the planet but can’t overspend because of their revenue. And they’re most expensive player can’t play because of a gambling ban.

If anyone is after King's Shares, it will have to be a great offer. he is Rumoured to have received and Rejected £25m, so it's going to have to be a huge amount for it to happen.

Cora = Phil Martin.

If ny guess is right Cora is a typo and should read Circa, leading to it being Jim McColl, John?

Well spotted AC21, to quote Scooby Doo, " could be"??, but how do u get Jim McColl?
