I spoke to someone on Saturday who hinted at it being this lot that we're speaking with, suppose the liars will take any conversation with someone wealthy to prove they weren't lying, but it's surely not a realistic alternative. It just suits their agenda.

Agar's filthy mitts involved as he tries to scupper any deal that'll cost him and his chum(p) Pattison. Agar will just be calling around anyone wealthy enough and rumoured to be looking at investing in a club and trying to 'broker' the deal, for a tidy fee of course.

Fact these guys are looking it wouldn't surprise me if they have had a call off him.

'Suitability' checks by the custodians will essentially be them checking what impact a deal will have on their bank balances (Patt/Jenkins) and continued involvement at club (Nixon).

Same old liars, same old lies.

What a curry on...

Yeah, an offers been made by someone from the North East.

Backed by someone with previous links to the Carlisle area. I've been told to keep this name quiet for now.

How's your mate you take to the match?

Its all about me though guys its all about me

By the way there's a North east guy made an offer backed up by a person with links to Carlisle.

I take a blind person to the matches, crap experiences, he's doing alright.

Confidentiality clause?

No, they will make it public themselves shortly.

Is that before or after AJ and JN jib them off?

If the local billionaires turn up in a stretch limo/hummer - what will an Indian consortium turn up in?

Come on Mullen tell us or are you scared Nixon will have a word again!! Imagine the glory if it comes true, at the moment all you are saying it is somebody!! I could say that ha

It's a fair crack laughing at what they're up to I suppose, and it does sound ludicrous. But if you just stop and think about it for a minute you'll realise that added to the other things they are doing, and have done, this shabby behaviour is nothing short of a disgrace. They're obviously running scared if they're resorting to that sort of disgusting, underhand, bullying tactic. Why do they feel that there can be no legitimate complaints about what they're up to? There isn't a business I've ever seen that hasn't had some complaints, whether justified or not. Tesco don't go ringing your boss if you make a complaint about a purchase or a shopping experience, they try to resolve it.

I'm not after any personal glory in just after the 3 gone and some proper people in charge.

I've been told not to give the names out YET apart from saying someone's involved because it may come as a surprise as to who is behind it and they don't want it scuppered yet.

A little bit more in that the person behind it and backing it doesn't want to run the club but wants the 3 out

Ok Mullen, do you know if the trust would be supportive or not as that is where the key is?

A stretch Tuk Tuk?

It depends RS.

Lets say offer 1 goes in to Jenkins for his shares then it doesn't need to involve the trust as Jenkins can give/sell his shares to whoever.

If offer 1 fails then yes will need the trust onside to go public. I've no idea what the trust would do, i'm sure theres some trust members that know about this.

Ahh so no billionaire, still have JN and SP. I dont think investment will work as they will string it out and the pull the plug like AL. Take over with local investors and this group working with the trust would be the way to go!!!!

Ok Mullen, I'll play your game. Are they wearing a hat?

It isn't Lapping and it isn't anyone on the guess who board.

would we know them and is KA involded?

Mullen103 wrote:
Not even the pope? *sigh*

Who do they want to run the club then ?

If I'm correct your saying they want the 3 gone so are prepared to buy Jenkins shares ?

So you know what every other trust member knows? That's a scary level of omniscience, if you don't mind me saying.

Speaking to 2 and 1 former board member and they knew there just didn't know who the person(s) are.

Haha woops, sorry Mullen.

I don't think I'm known on here for coming out with" I know something you don't, but I carnt tell" but, I was away at the weekend in the south of England. Speaking to someone at an event, they mentioned a name and a company that we all know, and they may be the big money behind this consortium. He has connections to the people I was with. If this is correct, I'd be happy. Make of this what you will.

Heard the initials TG again last night (off my old man). Mean owt?

This is interesting CvB, and it gets me thinking about who, of the current owners, is likely to tell someone to sling their hook, and who is likely to want to talk. Obviously, as we all know Jenkins has the most of his personal wealth invested in the club.

From the published accounts at 30 June 2025 you can see he is owed a total of £1,315,750 (£820,750 of that is actually owed to Pioneer, not Jenkins personally). So what are the chances of him actually recovering that currently? I don't think they're good and he has got himself further in than the shareholding he has is actually worth. Remember the Lapping deal? That was valuing the club at £2.8m (£1,260,000 would have secured Lapping's consortium 45% of the shares). Jenkins owns 37.315% of the shares, so working on those numbers his shareholding is worth about £1,044,820, quite a substantial shortfall. Going forward this current year might be fine, but the future doesn't look too good from the point of view of making profits, so there will be a hole to fill, and Jenkins is volunteered.

I would suggest he might think it is in his, and his family's, best interests to try to get what he can from some sort of investment plan and get out, before he has to donate further substantial cash. Of course the other two have nothing to lose at all, they paid £1 each for their holdings and simply don't have the level of cash to push at this that Jenkins has.

For me, Nixon and Pattison can keep telling potential investors to stick it for years, they've nothing to lose, Jenkins can't he has plenty to lose.

Interestingly the Lapping plan valued the shares of the trust at around £710,000 and they were prepared to dilute that value to £280,000, a drop of 60% of their value.

Sports direct magnate Ashley could be a possibility. Although he owns Newcastle we now have a link with them,also remember he was prepared to buy Rangers. He is obviously prepared to buy another club. Perhaps he is going to sell Newcastle and start again.
