Leicester
City PLC have now confirmed to the Stockexchange that there
had been a "preliminary approach which may or may not
lead to an offer being made" for Leicester City by former
board and "gang of 4" member Gilbert Kinch.
The
bid is rumoured to be worth around £20 Million. A bargain
when you consider that City's new stadium is costing more
than that to be built.
Kinch
is not thought to be alone in this new venture with other
former GOF member Roy Parker also involved in the possible
highjacking of our club.
Parker
is no stranger to failed bids though as he was also involved
in a rival consortium last year that failed to win support
for its bid.
City
fans are obviously concerned about the latest development
in the seemingly never ending power struggles at Filbert Street.
The
news did cause a minor shockwave, more of a very small ripple,
through the stockexchange as City shares jumped up 4p from
51p to 55p, giving the club a market value of around £16.8million.
FFS will use it's share voting powers to vote against any
bids by these two men now and in the future. We suggest that
the rest of you do the same.
Why
oh why oh why does this always happen to us? Let us know your
views in the Fans
Forum.
