Re: General Meeting, Consortium et al

Good for you I was at that game too and many more that were great at whatever level we were at that time. Hampton away for example.
The point is we should be looking to be as high and successful as possible not actively accept "our level" whatever that means.

Re: General Meeting, Consortium et al

Precisely my point

Living within our means means very possibly not at a very good level

If people are happy with that fair enough

Personally I enjoyed League One and League two wasn't bad either

Re: General Meeting, Consortium et al

This is a romantic pipe dream that keeps going. Even if it happened how would continuous funding be arranged for a start. Owning shares might mean a short probably small cash injection then what, who would run the Club, make decisions, maybe a Forum poll to decide something, God help us. Though I ag...

Re: General Meeting, Consortium et al

From the little we really know for sure I would say that offer was too low for ownership we need investment if we want to progress or even maintain the current level
A one off sum however well intentioned will not do the job
Mind you we don't really know all the facts

Re: Consortium UPDATE

Slightly playing Devils Advocate but personally I hope the Members consider openly all offers and make the right decision and not dismiss or favour one over another without considering all aspects One off payment for control then what Staged payments totalling significantly more but what strings and...

Re: Club Statement at last

I am sure that intended name insult has never been heard before but that aside I hope full members have a more open mind and make the right decision based on facts once they hear them

Re: Club Statement at last

Technically what is the difference between 80% control and 51% control isn't it still control?
Whilst well aware of previous sugar daddy disasters I would still like to keep an open mind on all three bids

Re: Membership of Club

It's hardly been a secret
If you want you can join the 250 club, buy more golden goal tickets, a programme, use the club bar, donate money each month and leave something in your will
A quick win would be to buy up the left over stocks of Easter eggs I might even go halves with you

Re: Dagenham & Redbridge F.C. - For Sale ???

What seems very clear to me is that the Club does require investment and why not it isn't a dirty word. Providing any acceptance is properly managed and genuine then I for one am all for it. Without it dependent on results and to some extent luck it is possible we could plummet and get into some fin...

Re: Doidge Gone

Lets hope he can score goals for us like his tally for Waltham Forest last season but if not he does at least score 115 at Scrabble
