CCM Fans and the club PT 2

. I would be more concerned about the opposite view ... it seems people are assuming Rich really, really WANTS the club

. what if he looks at it and goes 'despite all our success ... I'm still not hitting my targets ... so thanks, but no thanks Mike'

Maybe he does - but if that is the case Richard has made the club a better chance for Mike to sell to other buyers by investing more over the last seasons.

If Rich was to leave I'd be disappointed. But I'd thank him for his input and contribution for the last 2 years, what a ride and he's played a big part of it.

What has happened to us plebs buying a share?

 

[VonBowellski]

If he leaves, he leaves us as 1x Champions, 1x Premiers, and also potentially back to back Champions, and potentially AFC cup Champions for the mens, as well as the ladies getting into the finals. Throw in the potential (unconfirmed) sales of Di Pizio, Farrell, Balard, Nisbet, plus how many others in the works behind the scenes. We would be a lot more attractive option for someone looking to invest then we were 2 years ago, and a hell of a lot better then the Jets and Perth.

Still got 1 more year on the agreement, and is currently in discussions with other investors.

. yeah I was going to mention the potential for other investors (although benefactors may be a more appropriate term in football) ... but that would have confused the point I was trying to make

Can RP sell his share while he’s got it?

Bail out while the goings good.
Could he take the 2.5mill afc winnings (or part thereof) and take club earnings an run?

This is exactly my concern. Seeing him present the medals went some way to alleviating that concern.

He does not own a share. He is funding and running the Club for three years with the option of buying a 51% share when his lease expires.

I'm confident about our future

I think it's a degree of jumping at shadows. Richard had less than zero reason to get involved in the sport and specifically our club. We've been a basket case. We've turned around and improved to an insane degree, beyond any reasonable expectations, and now is when he's going to jump out after making the conscious choice to get involved with us?

Unless Charlesworth ends up being a massive cock again (definitely possible), I would've thought this is exactly what Richard would have hoped to have seen and probably more on top of that.

Rich daddies do a lot for their kids... So less than zero isnt correct.

. well, no, what Rich would have hoped for would have been to exceed his targets or at least hit them ... but he hasn't (or we haven't)

. and like I said ... that is despite our on field success. imagine how far he'd be from hitting his goals if we were shit ... or not consistently winning trophies.

 

[Ironbark]

I reckon memberships would have been up (anyone know?)
The 4 losses deflated a lot of casual fans. Next season will be better crowds I hope as confidence will be high with Jacko from the get go

The whole AL needs to improve or none of the owners are going to be happy

 

[Big Al]

Plus the money from APL is supposed to be reduced significantly next year

 

[pjennings]

On another note Code Football which I don't subscribe to has an article about imminent investors into CCM and has Richard saying we want to invest in infrastructure.

 

[midfielder]

Would be interesting to get some information from RP, after the purposed clubs meeting with APL, to determine what he thinks of what they plan to do, and how bad things are...
