Trust Update on Shares
at 21:44 2 Sep 2021

Key to all this is getting the Trust to have control of 50.1% of the shareholding.
So pledging/proxy your shareholding to the Trust could privecrucial
This could potentially give us the chance to go for an EGM and push through
a resolution to issue shares without pre emption.
Im no guru so would like others with more experience to comment. (RAFC ? )
Guesswork is no good at this stage. Hopefully the new board will have a plan
in place.
Still need to be wary of the snakes

Further Q&As

There certainly seems to be a charm offensive going on here.
giving all the 'right answers' to the questions posed.
I have a couple of concerns around the answers. i'm no expert
but here's my observations for what they are worth

Holding a Controlling Interest but saying the current Board are
doing a fine job and if they want us (them) to join then all they
need to do is ask.... Really ?? If I held 51% of the shares i'd damn
well want to be Chairman.

"In the event of NO INTEREST LOANS then there would be no security
required". What about LOANS WITH INTEREST ? These investors are
not putting their money into Little Old Rochdale for the love of the
Club or in memory our Our Gracie. They are going to want a return.
These types of Loans could be taken out visa vie SD1@bURY with
potentially the same 'introductory fees' and higher than normal
repayment terms.

Also would the NEW Commercial Staff really be an investment or just
a costly overhead ?. Just like a signatory signing on too high a wage that
breaks down in training after a week never to be seen again.

I, personally, am very sceptical about the whole approach AND the End Game
behind it from our new 'as Supporters'

Beware the wolf in sheep's clothing

Here’s a thought
If the Club ‘needs’ a more up to date training facility then they have at their fingertips a base to start from.
If it was me, and i know its not, i would be approaching Rochdale Cricket Club
to form some form of partnership and start looking at ways to develop Redbrook into a ‘Centre for Sport’ in Rochdale. There is an agreement of some sort at the moment and this could possibly be expanded on.
Grants both from various sources could be available. There is sufficient land for a 4/5G football pitch and the ‘lacrosse pitch’ also could be upgraded to 4/5G. I think there may be enough room for a couple of Hockey pitches as well. All of which could be available outside a normal training schedule for the use of Schools and local clubs etc.
The clubhouse has changing facilities and a kitchen to provide meals for the staff and players. There is space for Team/tactical talks etc both down and upstairs
The Cricket Club would benefit from extra footfall with the extra benefits of more food and bar sales
Whether this would be owned by RCC or RAFC or a Joint Venture i don’t know but i think its worth exploring

Not for us, but for Bury.
i was credit checking a potential customer and decided to nosey onto
BFC's file and was (or maybe not) supprised to see a new CCJ for circa £22k lodged
only Wednesday this week.
looks like they are in need of a bumper crowd tomorrow to settle some bills
