Sure, I don't have any axe to grind here. >It really depends upon what you call a better offer. >There was an offer on the table which was better for the CLUB than >the Bates offer (and the fans had a serious involvement in it) but >the previous board at the last minute (literally) opted to take a >different offer The words i used were "surely if they had come up with a better offer than Bates then the chances are it would have been accepted." Sorry I didn't specify better for who, I meant, better for the owners. maybe we look at this differently, LUFC is a business and everything that happens to it should be seen in this context. >From my experience no commercial business is sold off on terms that are better for customers or employees, it is ALWAYS the best interests of shareholders (or debtors) that are served. Unfortunately LUFC is no different. >You have of course NOT answered the question about the various >times you say that the fans should have acted. >There is also no logic in your statement that "surely it would >have been accepted". OK what I should have said was that "surely if they had come up with a better offer for the owners than Bates then the chances are it would have been accepted." I assume this would have been true at any point in the past. ttfn R _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
