James Earnshaw now saying (what we're all assuming) that his understanding is that Storey will never pass the fit and proper persons test.

You might ask why Dai would go this far if that was such an inevitability . . . . . but history suggests that Dai is in fact a moron. And I don't throw that term around lightly. He simply doesn't understand English football or how things works.

Also . . . . . . the takeover isn't confirmed.

Can I lightly suggest to the OP that he finds validation in something in his life other than starting threads on here.

Is £50M a bit much for Reading?

Orion1871 Shock horror as crooked chancer Storey is the only one willing to do business with crooked chancer Dai.

Apart from the fact multiple parties are reportedly interested.


Several crooked chancers are the only ones willing to do business with crooked Dai then.

So true, when you see the thread title it didn`t take a genius to work out who started it.

Go oxf*rd your self you cheeky pcunt. How dare you talk to a board Titan like that. The disrespect shown to the senior board members on here is disgusting. I will be having a word with Graham.

Royal_jimmy I'd rather have an owner who doesn't have a shady past with businesses and who actually has a bit more money. I don't see the EFL approving this anyway if true.

I'd rather be sticking my dick in a supermodel every night than my Mrs but sometimes we just have to take what we can get.

:lol:

If Storey is backed by a consortium and they can provide proof of funds can the EFL stop him?

Also, the EFL may be so keen to get rid of Dai they might feel that Storey is the lesser of 2 evils.

Storey is a dickhead, but we’re fairly high profile atm and for all his previous bullshit I don’t see this being one of his false claims.

He's got you that you and many others seem not to know what the word confirmed means.

When you are very unlikely to have to pay it, you can offer any amount you like.

Wouldn't surprise me if Dai knows Storey and his using this to try and up other offers I.e. "Look, I'll sell the whole lot for 50m, so get on with it."

Agreed. This has been leaked on purpose, either on Storey's side just to get some attention or on the selling side to pressure other buyers.

Yeah my fear is that Storey has just said £50m with no actual means to pay that - but that has now meant Dai will only listen to offers of that amount, which he won’t get

The article clearly states that there are other backers behind storey. I expect storey will have a very small shareholding. But he will be the man on the ground for the consortium.

Echoing a lot of what has been said, not trusting this to be done until there is actual confirmation, anyone can agree a fee with someone but then you actually have to pay for it and have it all signed off by the appropriate bodies, although I wouldn't be massively surprised if it did go through.

If it does end up going through, if he can just go a way to help reduce the clubs level of debt, try and get us on a more stable footing where the club can be more sustainable and not be so reliant on it's owner and leave the football people to make the football decisions, then that's the best we can hope for. I suspect point two won't happen though.
