Is there, it looks to me that whoever posted it on Facebook took it from here as they have referenced the person who posted it on here? Was it Stockholm Spireite! If there are any differences you've spotted, you may want to post on here for the ones not on Facebook.

OK, here's some information for you to digest...

The foreign consortium was from Sweden. At various times, they have visited CFC (both with and without me, but never as a whole group). One of my closest friends out here works for Proact. They have an office close by in Kista (pronounced shee-sta). He arranged visits for all of the consortium members as Proact over here was looking at working with these companies. I became the “English connection” - Proact, CFC, knowing the sponsors...

I’ve known the consortium over the 3 years I’ve lived here. Their business careers are involved with companies such as Volvo, Scania, Telenor, Telia, SwedBank Craft Sportswear and Åbro.

Volvo is official car of the Swedish national football team. Telenor and Telia are mobile communications companies; the Tele2 Arena in Stockholm benefits from naming rights sponsorship. Craft Sportswear is owned by Intersport and supplies team kit to the Swedish winter sports team and other winter sport nations. Intersport provides kit for Hammarby. Åbro is a brewery that has been involved with AIK.

So we’re not dealing with tin-pot investors; this is why these men didn’t appreciate the over-inflated price. They shot straight and offered a fair price.

If the bid was accepted, SwedBank would analyse the accounts before any further progress in the deal. This, I think, might have scared a few at the top table.

The immediate cash injection would be £500k from each investor, as a gift/sponsorship from their companies. That right there, is over £3m. It would certainly plug the gap in the finances and remove the need for loans to be issued. Further six-figure payments would have followed as season-upon-season sponsorship. If any loans were made, they would not be re-paid in part or whole until a minimum of £250k profit was recorded.

These were not a group that were in it just for a quick buck. They saw this as a serious opportunity to develop a number of opportunities. To name a few:

Volvo would have looked to work with Autoworld and bring them back into the fold, or respect their decision to stay with Matlock.
Åbro would have taken an interest in Brampton Brewery.
Craft would have looked at becoming the official kit supplier and develop the retail and club shop arm of the business.
SwedBank would have provided financial experts in accounting and root out the excessive/wasteful expenditure.

The £10m bid was turned down, and this is a direct quote from AC’s pm to me: Dave Allen does not think your starting point or final bid is worth further consideration. We wish you well in your other investment ooertunities.

Do you honestly think that respected businessmen such as these would negotiate with obstinate characters? Yes, they moved on, but when one party is serious about buying and the selling party is playing silly buggers, it's easy to see why they walked away so quickly. They're gone and won't be engaging in any more contact/negotiations.

If that's what DA said in AC' s message, then that's disgusting. How c#ntish. You don't dismiss big interest/only interest like that. Then for AC to say there wasn't any interest, to then change his story to there was...and now on about putting out a statement about it.
I've been told that AC is making all the right noises, exactly what we want to hear. Looks like the mask is slipping

what kind of right noises?
the mind boggles.

One of DA's possible options I suppose is to sack Carson and Turner and put somebody honest in. It might even appease fans into welcoming him back.

Has he actually said "no genuine interest" or more " no proof of funds" - there's a subtle difference.

Carson is in no position to judge either genuine interest or proof of funds. He has no skill or track record of either.
