Re: ALK Capital...
Derby's owner has loaned out significantly more and been to Wembley (twice I think) not worked out for him very well (there are many, many similar stories) - the Flood punt is one of the great unicorns - worked first go - then all collapsed quickly when his risk taking came back to haunt him.Wokingclaret wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 10:48 pmAt the point our late Director loaned money so that we could go to Wembley

Perhaps they are going to move the Turf to Kettering so it's easier for Sean to manage the club.

Re: ALK Capital...
Observations:
1. Not too worried about asset stripping - the only assets worth stripping are the players and they could sit out their contracts and leave on a free, so it wouldn’t make business sense given this is a mooted £200m takeover. There may be cash in the bank but that would be dwarfed by the purchase price too.
2. We know that Dyche has fallen out with MG. We assume this is due to transfers, but there may be a different reason?
3. Just read an interview with the Egyptian and had a look at his CV and interests. Not seeing much to suggest that BFC would be a labour of love, instinctively I’d much prefer Alan Pace’s mob. The lawyer is another big concern given his past history. May be wrong about both of course.
4. The value of clubs is going down fast currently, I suspect MG won’t want to dilly dally, I’m sure he is stressing a bit over it but I suspect speed is a key factor, the long term future of the club being a secondary factor. That worries me if, as I read today in The Athletic, the Americans maybe struggling to raise the cash.
On the plus side, I’ve got about 25 years of golf left in me, could be a real chance to get the handicap down on Saturdays. I may jest, but for those of us who live away, if we stop going the club won’t just lose us, it will almost certainly lose every future generation of our families. That’s not the recipe for long term sustainability.

Re: ALK Capital...
Hmm, I'd not quite made that link. It all makes sense to me now, though. Calder Vale and Kettering - our mystery investor is Sean Dyche himself and the reason that relations have been a little tense with Mike G this past few weeks is that Mr G has been playing tough on the negotiation of the selling price.Chester Perry wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 10:48 pmInteresting (and a little bit weird) that they are using Dyche's home town name as a company vehicle
Either that, or ALK know that they need to demonstrate that they have Sean Dyche on board (Kettering) as well as the history of Burnley FC (Calder Vale).
You've got to love ALK if there is any logic to these names. Pinsents in Leeds are their lawyers. I worked with a couple of lawyers from there many a couple of times - good people (though they weren't sports lawyers).

Re: ALK Capital...
I posted a couple of days ago - now several pages back - on this thread about a little personal "cautionary tale." The firm I was working for thought we'd concluded an agreement with another firm after several months of negotiations. Our team went to their offices with the final version of the signed contract - all that was missing was the other firm's signatures - they'd already agreed and confirmed every single word, maybe 150 pages in total. Our team were surprised and disappointed when they arrived and were informed the other firm had entered into a different contract with a competitor of ours.Herts Clarets wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 10:43 pmHe reported that contracts had been exchanged and only PL fit and proper test to pass now.

The deal isn't done until both parties have signed and all conditions precedent have been fulfilled.

Too much emphasis being placed on the lawyer here.
Who knows the Egyptian may end up as one of the ALK investors.
I said a few pages ago, the clubs the lawyer has been through were basket cases long before he turned up. We are a different kettle of fish entirely.

Re: ALK Capital...
Initial thoughts, a real businessman, with money. Encouraged compared to the empty shell of ALK.
After a bit of reading here, now see that we have a questionable lawyer who seems to have a fetish for being front and centre of leading a takeover of a football club. What is his obsession ? commission / fame ? How many lawyer's do you know who front takeovers. As a recent example, recalling reading about the good news of EG bringing Asda back into British ownership, nothing at all about lawyers in the hundreds of news stories.
Back to Mohamed El Kashashy, in stark contrast to Farnell, nothing in news for 6 years. Looking at the Food Group franchises, of the three brands mentioned (Eric Kayser, Avec and Little More Cafe) all but one branch of Eric Kayser still exist in Dubai. something happened to the portfolio of Food Group in Dubai in the last 6 years. I suspect as Kayser is still relatively successful it is operated by someone other than Think Food LLC.
This suggests that Mohamed El Kashashy no longer owns Think Food or it is just a shell company. This in turn implies that he aint had a proper (or legit) job for some time. All of which suggests he absolutely has very little money or is yet another front for someone else. When you are using a questionable solicitor, introducing a bloke with less money than me, on behalf of a shadow, we need to be a little bit concerned.

Very unsure about the Farnell link and Egyptian investment, as to be honest had quite got my head around the ALK option, particularly liking their talent identification model and reports of their interest in investing wider in the area.

This news doesn’t bother me too much, a year ago it would have but now not so much. I have fallen out of love with english football over the last year and have learned to live with not going on the turf now. Football is dead in this country anyway. If we end up going bust in a few years an AFC Burnley will start. Just got to ride along.

Re: ALK Capital...
There is no way the Premier League can sanction this “deal” if in fact it’s not all complete fantasy.
There is absolutely no evidence to suggest our Egyptian friend has any serious money.
If indeed he does represent other interested parties then why are they using him and why was he interested in Charlton but it was all hot air.
As for Farnell he is a one man band. A quick check on companies house shows he owns a company with £136 k in the bank at the end of last financial year with a negative net worth of £186k. He has no employees.
All are using Pinsents one of the worlds leading law firms.
Where did the story come from? Who leaked it and for what reason.Garlick cannot be taking them seriously.

And if reports are correct, it looks like it's been leaked from the Farnell camp, given his ban from ownership of an English football club was lifted and the story seemed to blow up as soon as that happened. (An assumption but likely).

Re: ALK Capital...
Amazing how some people get seduced my money.
Mere mention of investment makes some all giddy, they have probably even got their January transfer targets lined up in their heads as the club/town emerges as a northern powerhouse.
Be really good if those who are seduced by this and want the club to move to the next level could answer some very basic questions, then those of us who aren't seduced by it could maybe come round to their way of thinking.
What is in it for the investor and what is the primary aim for someone making an investment in anything
With our current income and wage bill how do we fund this next level move while at the same time paying out to investors
When the **** hits the fan who then funds the existing levels of expense we have
Those are just 3 questions, be interesting to read the answers

It’s complete nonsense.! No deal has been done. The mirror put the story out but when you read through everything from other sources you will see that there is no actual confirmation. The deal has not passed the premier league.
The two characters have already proved a conflict of interest if they’ve been talking to both charlton and Burnley for over a year.
No one can explain where the money is coming from. Kashashy isn’t very rich.

Any good journo worth their salt will not be taken in by Farnell and co.
One of their tactics at Charlton was to give positive stories to Alan Nixon (the worst sports journalist known to man) and without any research he would publish them.
It was only when our local journo at Charlton would do research and tweet more accurate information, then we got the truth.
Farnell will use the media to put a Positive spin on things, don’t be fooled.

It was only when our local journo at Charlton would do research and tweet more accurate information, then we got the truth.
Farnell will use the media to put a Positive spin on things, don’t be fooled.
Wooahhh steady on Nixon is the messiah on here and the main man in know for some, despite your description of him being far more accurate.

Re: ALK Capital...
The line about them being in talks for Burnley for a year o really struggle to believe and I have no doubt it comes from one of their camp. This is the same people who got their claws stuck into Charlton during lockdown. Farnell and Kashay were both attending games at the valley during lockdown and both attended a court hearing when they fought tooth and nail to stop Charlton being sold just two months ago.

Re: ALK Capital...
Charlton boy is right. Darnell is a self publicist. As I have stated just look up his company on companies house. It’s a bit of a joke. And as for the other fella do research in either Dubai or Egypt. He is a nobody and a bit like the guy that tried to take over Watford and Wigan , a fantasist.
It’s a story to raise Farnells profile to highlight he was cleared.
