And you've changed from 'heard from a reliable source' to
"May be true" "its possible"

I'm calling you out as making things up just because you don't like Carter. You say yourself Minards hasn't said anything but seem to now lump them together.

Enough people are challenging you on Facebook now thank goodness.
You have shown absolutely no basis for any of your claims, except 'it was what I got told'. Unless you can quote someone who actually knows, it could have been a discussion between you and Mopsey for all we know.

And 'I am hung up on it' because you are saying things that are damaging to my club and the directors of the club and make things look worse than they are.
We should be celebrating the possibility of a takeover but we are all having to wade through all the misinformation which causes doubt when there isn't anything to discuss yet.



I did hear from a reliable source, as I have heard plenty of things that happen to come true, the pitch inspections which I got slagged off over 'making up', bang turned out true, same with Max and Linos new deals.

As I have said, a Stadium Management company is very common, and it could have been suggested that one is formed and the asset remains with that company and lease this back to the club and football club. After all, MC said that thing will generate £500K, so he may want to retain such a valuable business asset. Nothing has come out in the press to say that this idea / suggestion of the stadium been rented to the club is either true or untrue YET. I

Whether you do or you dont, I really couldnt care less, I am a big boy and can deal with your lies. I wont be losing any sleep over what you, any other posters or anyone on FB says or thinks about me. I just had to prove a point, that you have been harping on about defamation, and you blatantly made something up about me, Pot calling kettle.

The thing I can not get my head around is, who is the source of this information, there can't be many people involved in these discussions MC, JM, ME and maybe legal people, and I don't see any of them revealing anything financial at this stage.

One other thing does Ted Richardson attend games regularly or is it just coincidence I have seen both him and EricTimmins recently at Belle Vie

We have 4 shareholders, who will all have friends and family who they trust, they may also have employees who they trust. Ellis may also take the same number of advisor / fellow board members / even members of a potential consortium with him to any talks - they too all have friends family etc who they believe they can trust. All of a sudden 30 or so people know, or have been told elements of the talks. Its just a big game of chinese whispers then.

Non disclosure agreements could be in place, but then again MC has just done a interview about the potential takeover, so maybe they arent.

Ted attend games regularly, he may have done some wrong things when running the club, but he is actually a proper lifelong Wakefield Fan, and not a Hull FC follower.

If you look in the online concise oxford dictionary for the definition of "Irony" I believe it now makes direct reference to a certain posters comments on this thread :wink:

That was a mistaken identity but I haven't lied about anything. All I've asked is to only state facts as facts, not made up things like the rent or otherwise.

Ah the old mistaken identity card - not sure it stands up, to avoid anything like that, I made my username, my actual name on Facebook.

I havent made anything up, I have put my opinion, with direct quotes from MC - you have made things up, and put a quote from a journalist to try to back up that MC said something.........its really not that hard. Just practice what you preach thats all I ask.
