Last night, I had an extended conversation with a deep-thinking, experienced businessman who is not devoid of interest in our Iron problems. (No. He does not personally possess sufficient funding to contemplate a takeover.)
Based on those debts which have already been cleared and what he insists is the plummeting value of the land, he was quite optimistic about Iron survival with or without DH. He did not seem to think that whether he stays or goes will make too much difference either way.
Combine this with current onfield success and the absence of winding up orders – he feels that an offer for GP could be or soon be in the pipeline.
He listed all the actions that PS might take. Several of these could well restore interest in people previously wanting to take over – and the key point – would create a way for PS to extract himself.
The biggest danger he foresaw was the club finding its way into the hands of someone called a Mr Hardy – or similar.
It was all a bit above my head, TBH. Still – my spirits were lifted somewhat.
