    He wasn't looking to sell Standard Liege until they protested effectively and sufficiently. Time to go or you'll lose a load of money.

    I think 'Yet' at the end of the thread title would be appropriate in the light of current events :wink:

    Nobody is quoted as saying it's not for sale.

    If that is the case, then why not tell Varney that way back in August? Another piece of amateurish handling from the owner and CEO, pretending they wanted to meet and then cancelling, quite unbelievable for a so called businessman. This is, for me, getting extremely worrying that we do indeed have a mentally unstable person at the helm.....god help us all!!

    Wish I hadn't opened that. Seeing his grinning face with our club badge behind him makes me feel sick. I'm not a violent person but would love to give that face a punch or two.

    I get the impression that with Roly, everything is for sale. He is a businessman and will sell at the right price. I just hope there are people out there can save us, and get these c**** out of our club.

    So Cawley rings Katrien and askes about the situation or maybe KM rings him.

    Either way KM says the club isn't for sale. I don't think Cawley has a direct line to Roland so it's most likely to be KM.

    But she won't go on the record so no quotes.

    But does RD even know what the offer is or even that there is a real offer on the table?

    Who knows other than that KM has tried very hard not to know what the offer might be.

    Lets face it, on past form them saying we're not for sale is good, as it means we probably are.

    Maybe a bit of self preservation on the part of Katrien...new owners means she gets the chop

    Exactly, SID.

    Keep the pressure on her, she'll crack eventually.

    This piece is just a rewrite of VOTV. Nothing we wasn't aware of for the past couple of days.

    With each passing day these idiots are looking more foolish IMO. The SLP has now ran with this article, and although there are no quotes, and it is a bit of a non story, the fact that those emails are now in the public domain, plus Varney making reference to KM's idiotic sofa idea, just helps build momentum.

    Silence is the only tactic from the beleaguered KM at the moment. Let's keep this up :smiley:

    We know he isn't listening because Katrien is a barrier.

    utter bollox----she shows her inexperience again---disinformation.

    Someone comes in and offers RD £40million etc he would sell---all clubs are for sale.

    "she" hasn't said anything on the subject has she ?

    Of course RD isn't going to say in public that the club is for sale. Privately he might have different opinions, seeing how unsuccessful his tenure has been

    Indeed, the amount of BS that comes out of KM's mouth is amazing. I wish she'd make an on-the-record statement, we'd be sold in 24 hrs...

    Also, by saying they aren't for sale, they probably think that if an offer did come in, they could press for top dollar.

    As soon as you say a business is for sale, the price goes down. So I would say that a sale is always possible if the price is right.
    In this case we have to make it crystal clear to RD that if he does not sell long before August there will be an effective season ticket boycott, whichever division we are in.
    If he thinks that is going to happen he will be more likely to sell now.

    Roland loves the club far too much to ever sell it, it's only this emotional attachment that is preventing him from doing so!

    They seem determined to run us into the ground. For RD the money is not the issue. It's about ego and proving a point. So when it goes belly up he will walk away, write off his losses against tax liabilities and find something else to ruin. And that appalling woman will grin her way into another job with a company "she loves and cares about". They deserve each other. Just not at CAFC.
