SavageTheBeast Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Has anybody got any reliable information on the speculation that Corney in conjunction with Sinfield and Barry MacDermott is taking over the roughyeds? Was just about to post same. Lot of rumours flying round the yeds ATM Corney was asked about the availability of boundary park and did he want to get involved.

oafc-latics Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Why would he want to invest in Roughyeds if he wants out of Latics? And where's he finding the money from if our budget is always going down and he's just spent a fortune on a new stand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics_Fanatic Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Why would he want to invest in Roughyeds if he wants out of Latics? And where's he finding the money from if our budget is always going down and he's just spent a fortune on a new stand? It's a consortium, so presumably he's just the business face? Well-known in the area and balances the books at Latics... (Well, apart from the debt to TTA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I have absolutely no clue about anything business-related, but since Koukash planned to buy Latics AND Roughyeds together, maybe Corney sees the club as more marketable packaged.

philliggi Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Wheres this come from? Is it another wind up or has it actually got legs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magister Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 Wheres this come from? Is it another wind up or has it actually got legs? My brother. Perfectly respectable57 year old member of society. He is not impressionable nor naive . He was told this and text me re this and my dad's brick in new stand. Definitely not a wind up but that does not mean it is true. Hence I ask the question not make a statement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 ok as long as the rugby don't claim the stadium and the Latics finish up at Whitebank in a role reversal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Anyone hazard a guess as to what it would cost to buy Roughyeds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super_blue Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Anyone hazard a guess as to what it would cost to buy Roughyeds? Clear any debt/outstanding loans and offer a new home venue should do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It actually makes a lot of sense to me. The asking price would be naff all. There's income potential from the stand. Investment in longer lasting turf will be the main additional expense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It actually makes a lot of sense to me. The asking price would be naff all. There's income potential from the stand. Investment in longer lasting turf will be the main additional expense. So are we thinking of raising enough income from the new Stand to keep two Clubs going with a view to them both playing in their respective top flight eventually?

OAFC_ULTRA Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Cant see this being true as I doubt SC has any money to invest at the moment, but stranger things have happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I do remember an interview with Kevin Sinfield a few years ago that asked what he would do if he won the lottery. Half each to Latics & Roughyeds was the answer. Presume he lives in the area as his kids play at Saddleworth Rangers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafcprozac Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I know Simon's been approached in the past about this whether beelzebul Hamilton with ever relinquish control is another matter.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L1onheartNew Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 There are probably only two people that I have met in my life that have really really pissed me off. One is G. Sharp who owes me an FA Cup final, the other is Hamilton who owes me 600 quid. Both still make my blood boil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
