And as if by magic, here it is. Did the agents ever leave? https://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/2022/september/06/Report-Hibs-Dev-Squad-2-2-Dundee-United/

Plenty of connections with just one element of it. Gestede hooking up with Keane and then arriving back at Ewood as a trainee executive. Kean goes to Hibs and we have connections there and do not be too surprised if he is connected to our recent signing, Miller.

That may well be what Gen is alluding to, but I’m guessing.

This would not surprise me one jot. I would say agents from the same stable, almost definitely.

I agree, it’s Pasha then the owners. My real worry is, would they allow a prospective new owner to look at the books? I have a feeling that there are people on the payroll that shouldn’t be, but that’s just my gut feeling.

One thing to say on this and granted we don’t know the extent of this yet. If as you say, this has come about, as a result of the fans forum explosion. Here we are after one meeting, where we had hard hitting minutes, yet we have some people saying it’s unfair having a go about version 1 or minutes from previous meetings. Would this have happened, had version 1 been allowed to stand?

Can you elaborate and give us some hope, as mine is fading fast?

I know what I think of them and just want a straight forward explanation of what happened. I personally am not trying to hang anyone out to dry, but would be interested to know, why the first version needed to be altered some much, to reflect what was fair and accurate. Surely, that’s not a lot to ask.

They didn’t make it back for a game that season, as they hoped, or any season since. Why do they still want to own us?

Disgusting. Im sure one of us can get it signed covertly. I know some on here have access to players, so let’s get it done and give a two fingers up to this regime.

Me too.

Me too. I don’t go on holiday and not carry on any of my hobbies or normal life and one of my hobbies, is keeping up with Rovers stories especially this site. It could be very convenient, but perhaps I’m being unkind.

I think this is where the biggest problem is. From what you had said there, two people have written/ seen them before they went to the club. Given that this version was accepted by the club, but not any other member of the fans forum, the only conclusion, I can come to, is they were deliberate club friendly version, aimed at keeping the peace, so I respectfully ask the two people who saw/wrote version one, to explain why. I also respectfully request if previous minutes, were also aimed at keeping the peace, or has every other set of minutes, accurately represented the meetings, controversial or not?

Can I just clarify this, who was version 1 written by and do you know why it went to the club, before any of those attending saw it?

I wrote what I did, as thats the way, I see it, but no problem at all being corrected on it, as just done so by Miller 11

Cheers Duncan.

Money?

He is making out he is saving them money and with that one decision alone could have cost them £20m plus.

I will second every bit of your post. What a ridiculous post you have had to reply to there. I

Oh come on, how on earth can you arrive at that conclusion. If you were prepared to fight the cause like Glen is fair enough, but you are now being controversial for the sake of it, unless you have a hidden agenda.

The way I see the situation with the minutes now is this and I stand to be corrected. Version 1 was written by O2G and everyone, in attendance bar Glen received a copy, before they went to the club. Those who saw them agreed that they were fair and accurate, so the went to the club, who duly agreed them and they were ready to publish them. Was Glen left out in error, or was this a deliberate attempt at keeping the peace? Before they were published, Glen then saw them and let it be known to all attendees that they were not accurate, so version 2 were drawn up, agreed by all attendees and Re-Presented to the club. The club then let it be known they were not happy with this version and also advised, they would not allow these to be published. Version 3 were then released to those who attended the meeting and these were version 2 only with the controversial points removed and these have now been released onto the website, but not agreed as accurate by the fans forum.

Do you know who wrote them?

When you strip this down to the bare bones, Wharton was sold, when he was, to ensure the bills could be paid. Even Mashed Potato is in agreement that it was a distressed sale. Should Venky’s have wanted, perhaps they could have sent the required funds to pay the bills and stumped up the required bond, in order to do so. That in turn, would have meant, we retained the wonderful talent that Adam is and then allow the summer bidding war to commence and probably a higher fee. Presumably we will find ourselves in the same position at some point in the future, so what then?

Controversial I know, but what are your thoughts on why version 1 was written this way and who is responsible for omitting, the contentious points?
