Quote: Roam Ranger "It feels like a long time ago that AP did that interview but what I do recall from it was that he really didn't want to be drawn on specifics and came across as quite vague on a lot of things, particularly surrounding the investment. Which I think in fairness is understandable because there will need to be a great deal of confidentiality about such things.
But of course that leads to speculation but there's no actual facts beyond knowing that Pearson is seeking investment and confident it will be done by the end of the season. For all we know, AP could be selling up altogether, could be giving up a major stake but still retaining part ownership, or could be just offering a minor stake and remaining owner. The appointment of Myler as DOR came out of the blue and seemed a really left field choice which drew a lot of people to Thirkill but of course that could just be people putting two and tow together and coming up with five. The club has also seemingly gotten it's hands on capital from somewhere recently due to the changes such as the sacking of Smith and Gene, paying off Hoy, Pearson's promise of marquee players next season (a far cry from previously saying we can't operate with marquee players) etc. Again, a lot of people are presuming (myself included) that it's a sign of investment but I suppose it's also possible that Pearson has just put his hands in his pockets knowing that changes needed to be made, particularly to attract investors.
Like many, I have my own theories on what's happening but I have no facts backing these up. Just a lot of supposition and guesswork. I would be curious to hear if anyone has anything more concrete they can share. Or even rumours!'"
my opinion is as soon as Pearson gets his loans to the club repaid and whatever money he can get for his shares he will be on his bike
His credibility with fans is shot
