Here are my questions on the back of it (and on the back of the posts above about the letters to shareholders):
- - Otmoor Yellow mentioned that OUFC shares will now be held by Oxford Investment Holding pte Ltd, and that pte is not a commonly used designation in the UK. Are you able to give a bit more detail than that, for us lay people?
- He was very evasive about who is involved with the bid and whether he's a sole chairman or the front man of a consortium. He said: "I have a guy who's looking at some financial things, and one [member of] staff who helps me". Well that could mean anything, and I'm disappointed in our local media for not pressing him on the issue as it's pretty critical to the future.
- Likewise, he confirmed that there have been no conversations yet with Firoz, with Mr Thanakarnjanasuth saying that he "doesn't see it as critical". Again, I'm seriously unconvinced by that. Without the ground, it's impossible to make Oxford United a sustainable going concern in the long-term. Again, supplementary questions should have been asked, and weren't.
- On the manager front, he said that the appointment should be finalised within a day or two. Which I suppose is good news, although I think many of us expected the new manager to be at this morning's presser. Still, we've waited four weeks, so what's a couple more days.
