TOPIC: Rumours have it !

JN and AJ told CUOSC that they had investment options of 250k. CUOSC went back and said they will see what they can do, they have 18 to 29 local businesses with an option for CUOSC to raise more shares. Investment of around £2 million. JN is stalling as this will be a a take over and he would be out of the door. JN is rumoured to be talking to a guy called Wilson from down south who was previously involved in Workington and Penrith. His business affairs and business history are questionable. Looks like JN will only let go if he stays! Debate!

Not the Wilson that left Workington up financial sh** creek with massive debts is it?

Wouldnt suprise me at all if our reluctant director of external affairs wants to stay. Did you know he does all this for free?. If CUOSC can raise that sort of money it makes you wonder why they havent bothered doing this for the last 10 years.

Rumours, rumours, rumours...

Bill Wilson, heard this one before. Seems to be a bit of truth to it. Nixon doing it out of desperation and a final 'fcuk you' to the fans if he is to be on his way.

Heard exactly the same itch some big players involved but Nixon wants to hold on to his titles with the fa etc so is looking at Wilson

By what measure? A number of people hearing the same shit rumour doesn't make it any more true

If it's true it's Bill Wilson of Wilson Leisure Developments-based on South coast.It looks like he has been involved with Workington,Penrith and possibly an approach to Carlisle before if you believe News and Star archive.

Before anyone asks,never met him and was not in the group behind me

Check out Bill Wilson, Red Fox Leisure Wear, Michael Knighton. No, no, no, not with a barge pole, not in a million years, A certain Radio Cumbria stalwart will give you the full SP, avoid this man at all costs!

A couple of candidates for the Fit & Proper test if ever there was.

Bill Wilson for obvious reasons and JN for even talking to him (if he is that is).

Bill Wilson has expressed an interest and was swiftly laughed out the place.

From Dalston IIRC, he was a local league goalie back in the day. Sure he ran ICIS sportswear in Aspatria and a sports mail order firm called Burglar Bill Sports. Been bankrupt more times than should ever be allowed.

If the rumours are true at least the BOD got the first bit right in Billionaire.

a nice guy and should have made a load of money but somehow seems to make a hash

he ran a motor accessory company that seemed to be doing very well but that all fell apart

no chance he could ever take over the club

Laffy's lot recently sold a motor accessory firm for a good profit The plot thickens.

I sold DPE Automotive to Arlington-a Tier one supplier of parts to Nissan,Bentley and others.It has nothing to do with any Bill Wilson so let's end that strand!

I did notice yesterday in the Daily Mail that two HK based investors in Workington Reds have just put money into Glasgow Rangers.

Plenty going on in Cumbria!

I suppose it's the Same Shit stirring that said jabo was sold to Sheff wed.if you don't know stop spouting shite

He once had a balloon shop too.

But that went bust with inflation...

I just wish that everyone would settle.We have a team and manager that is keeping us in league football. I would like to see more thanks given to that side of life.As I have said many times before do not underestimate AJ. JN and Lord Clark. These people will act in the best interests of Carlisle United.The club has been through dramatic times before and they will again but leave it in the hands of the BOD and please get on with supporting the players and management. I personally think that we are very very fortunate to be where we are.Bring a friend would help.

I just wish that you'd bugger off.

Auto Spares business on Raffles Parade opposite the Farrier, Willie Wilson aka Walter Mitty, was on the pitch at Wembley lording it with Knighton and on top of the bus for the round the city tour. i almost choked, as I said, avoid at all costs, anyway AJ should know him and be aware of his pedigree.

WHY

I don't think your allowed to say that on this board as there is actually only one opinion allowed it looks like to me.free speech and all that.not.Shaldon 1

Absolutely agree if them three have the best interest of the club they will sell to the consortium that the CUOSC have brought to the table and not hang on to their own titles for themselves! Let's see what they do!

Just edited your post to the bit thats worth a read mate .

Shaldon 1 if they had acted in the best interests of the club then they would have accepted AL's plan to restructure the club. So far they have nicked some of his ideas treated him like sh1t and still keep up the pretence that there is a billionaire out there.
Tell what if anything does Lord Clark bring to the party?

The best interests of themselves.

If the rumour is true. Fingers crossed, as something needs to change. JN seems to be the problem.

Best interests?? Their own interests..the best interests of the club should be taken out of their hands as its been nothing but failure and stagnancy. Treating your customers so poorly for years and crazy decisions have gone too far.

They are not wanted anymore apart from a few ostriches who think they are Gods.ffs

I bet you do. It would be nice and convenient for you if everyone would just forget about the events of last summer wouldn't it, so that the Billionaire debacle and the way AL was treated could be nicely brushed under the carpet?

Not going to happen, Sheldon.
