topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 So if £2m would take them over 30% this must realistically be someone with about a quarter of the stock already as opposed to new investors Who are the big shareholders in AFC? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milne and Cormack are the two biggest. Think they're the only ones close to 30% so must be one of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it says this will complete funding for phase 1. I'm sure they were shouting from the rooftops a few weeks ago that phase 1 was paid for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he also says this: "Some of the proposed investors are unwilling to proceed while this Rule applies because they do not wish to be forced to make an offer for the entire equity share capital of AFC." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess would be that it is more money from Cormack's foundation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily. It would depend on the terms of the subscription. Theoretically someone could be investing £2m for 30%. It doesn't have to be an existing shareholder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 James Wilson released by Man United. I would expect to see him with the scarf aloft in front of the Big Dick within the week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d31 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 would have been a sensational permanent signing last summer. Now meh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logie skid boys Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Wilson said he did not feel fully fit till near end the season , well he defintely looked sharper and more up for it last few games . If he bothers his arse then he would easily score quite few goals up here , GMS still discusing his future with his granny she must talk talk a lot . If he does go think couple others will follow Wright and May my guess.. probably loans .. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll have 15 goals for Kilmarnock before Christmas. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logie skid boys Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 He is well liked with the other players , and nae ego that we thought he might have If the fitness was the only isssue then we should try get him if there is a chance . and sounds like we are . So hopefully May is heading to Perth or Hamilton or Brechin or ------or maybe to Dens , 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Milne will use the opportunity to stick in some too but I wouldnt think he is the driver 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
