darra Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 If I wanted to, I could be telling the same people "back me with 10mil" and I guarantee you I would be running this club by midnight Thursday and making a nice tidy piece out of it. I could raise the money for ME to takeover this club by close of business tomorrow, no bother, one phone call to Morningside or to any one of three or four other wealthy friends to get them to co-invest. So if any of your "various" people can give one logical answer as to why I don't do that, if that is indeed my aim, then go nuts. Or maybe just say "roger it" and stick to calling people c v nts on here, seems the popular thing to do, that will get the current cancers sitting on the board out of our club, no? flipping pathetic. Bills genuine question why now and not before suspect one of the reasons but won't post on here P.M if you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fulham Fox Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Nope. C9S offered me personally nothing. Simon / mark need to come clean about what they have actually been doing this past year if they really want to establish a position of trust. Regards Lee Lee, I do not need to "establish a postion of trust". You remind me of De Niro in the Fockers. I came on here because the rumours you started whilst I was away on my Harley to St Tropez were offensive and libellous. I was alerted to this last Friday, at which point I changed my name from FulhamFox to Mark Corbidge. You want transparency, here goes. I met with you in Millhouses Park and had breakfast (I had full cooked and you explained you had a gastric band). You discussed ways to take wednesday forward and I gave you my thoughts. Openly and honestly. You asked for cash and I said said no. I then came across a group of Swiss investors interested in Portsmouth FC who came to see me for advice. I explained that whilst i had a vested interest (being a Wednesdayite) I felt SWFC was a far better investment. I met with them In Sheffield late 2009, told them it was a great club, the night before you entertained them at Hillsboro. You called me to ask if I could vouch for them and I said no, you must do your own due diligence. They then called me to ask if it was a cultural problem as notwithstanding the notary letter confirming £14m in a blocked account, you would not entertain discussions and wanted an english lawyer to confirm proof of funds. I confessed that this was unusual as a notary letter confirming £14m in favour of SWFC was in my mind worth a further discussion. They heard no positive response and I was informed that you felt this was a simple front for Peter Storie of Portsmouth FC to take control of SWFC. Absolute rubbish. I had, at your request, introduced a potential investor. I understand they offered loan players from France and Italy in January which were rejected. They have since been in touch, as you know. They will send a further letter this week to the board of SWFC I get a call this morning asking if i want meet you Friday night in Sheffield to discuss the way forward. No. You are a sad and twisted ex-Chairman clutching at straws. I am old school and would never criticise anyone holding a senior position at the club I love. Love or hate Obama he is President. You get behind the flag. Same is true for Wednesday but for all the speeches on the pitch you have done FA. You promised investment and yet found a way to alienate if their business plan did not have you as Chairman. Power corrupts yet absolute power corrupts absolutely. Farewell my sad friend. Feel free to respond as my lawyers have contemporanepus notes on all of the above from me and your response will be interesting and monitored. To quote Jack Nicholson from a few good men, "you want the truth - you cannot handle the truth" Wednesday til i die !!!!! I have no agenda here. My only agenda is to provide for wife + 2 kids. I will not tolerate honest fans being lied to. I rest my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Deleted member Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I would just like to add to the above that I challenged Mark personally about the Billsaja link to his name as I was annoyed that I was told that Mark Corbidge and Billsaja were the same person by Lee Strafford. I'm disappointed that it has been suggested that Mark has done anything underhand as I know his dedication to Sheffield Wednesday runs far beyond any personal ambition to make money from the club. And THAT is the sole reason Mark showed up last week to put this rumour to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JonR Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I have become so disillusioned over the past few days. Grown men washing their dirty linen in public. OT is great i am on it every single day but i am disappointed when i see things like this. Lee Mark Bills Sheard Anglophile Why come on this site and throw your weight around. One thing i would say about DA is he was businessman. Apart from when he lost the plot and slagged us all off, he kept SWFC matter within SWFC. spilling confidential information onto here helps no one.

I think after what's just been said and confirmed by Grandad it would be a bit harsh to paint this guy with the same brush right now. most transparent thing we've heard in a while. and it's not as if he wasn't pushed to say something, he has been challenged numerous times.
