ahamaad Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 5 Live are reporting tonight that Lerner is to resume discussions with Doug. Why the **** would anyone wonna talk to Doug again after what he said!. Doug is a rude idiot. Thats what I was thinking. If I was the board I'd lock Ellis in the toilet with a stripper and only get him out when his signature is required. Plus I thought Lerner was only willing to negotiate with Rothschilds?

peterms Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 If I was the board I'd lock Ellis in the toilet with a stripper and only get him out when his signature is required. I was thinking along the same lines, except my version was the boot of a car in a lock-up in Hull or Salford or somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattley Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 If what Five Live is reporting is true then surely Lerner will negotiate with Rothchilds only, plus the fact Roathschilds will ensure Ellis sticks to all the rules meaning he wont be able to up the anti at any time. Maybe the roumer of MON's possible appointment had an underlying meaning afterall, please let this be true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villafan306 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Did it say when they were meeting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macca'87 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 If this is true, and the talks are tomorrow, I'll be stupidly nervous if we don't hear anything by around 6pm. Will there even be talks tomorrow though? Lerner is still in Cleveland as we speak right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 It didn't say they were meeting it said they would be re opening dialouge. I would be surprised if Lerner flew over to Engalnd again this week unless it was a done deal of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshVilla Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 It could all be done through Lerner's 'people' though I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bully Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 It will be hopefully later this week, and given the official takeover statement made this morning there will defo be no one on one meetings between dopey and randy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattley Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I should imagine Lerners 'people' will talk to rothschilds 'people' to test the water again after the initial Ellis - Lerner talks were held. I reckon that if Lerners people hear the right things then another face-to-face meeting will be set up. I cant imagine he will fly over again unless he's 100% sure things will go his way.

ianrobo1 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 correct Bully and no need, done through Randy;'s banker, Rothschilds and then they will go back to Ellis. We just need the bid properly .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardfromoz Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I think most on here have got it wrong. I believe Lerner pulled out (supposedly) when the Neville bid went in, at that time Ellis had a duty of care to listen to all bids irrespective of whether or not Lerner was his preffered option. Lerner I believe withdrew until all the cards were out there and the so called stoush with Ellis was just a smoke screen. If MON is appoineted it means understandings are in place. Just my thoughts, mere speculation but would'nt it be funny if Ellis was trying to do the right thing all along and copped a real slagging for his troubles.

runetune Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I would expect that Lerner would hand this over to his representatives now - much like AVFC need to have Rothschilds involved. I doubt that Lerner would need to see anyone now face to face except for finalising any deals - always assuming it got that far with him - he has been given a tour already of the facilities of the club...... so doesn't need to see what AVFC has to offer in that sense.
