Revealed: Secret bid to buy battling Tigers

[hobbo1]

Surely if they are talking about 10 million then that would only be for the 10% bit that is the Balmain share.

Surely none of this can be right anyway, I mean Back Door Benny is involved after all.

Surely people we can see it as it is. It’s a publicity stunt by a burnt out former player slash entrepreneur that wants a bit of oxygen. He is a failed business man every one knows that !He is a fraud you only have to look at this latest stunt to see this , the news reports about a secret meeting that went for 2 hours. Hang on who told them about the secret meeting and how long it went for? Then out comes Bullshit Benny through the doors of the club on his own without any of the fellow consortium to be greeted by the news crew . Shock horror on Bullshit Bennys face . Go away you fraud!

I’ve heard Benny is working on a new show with channel 7 called Ripped off at first sight.

Some years ago at a meeting of Balmain Leagues Club (RIP) members we were told to “trust Benny “, as he would act in the best interests of the club. Well, fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice.....

Never forget who did this

Mock it if you will, but this seems to be heating up. One thing I’ve learnt is that $ talks in this world.

If Wests Ashfield sell, they should sell the whole thing to him because the backlash will be massive.

10m is not enough. It’s an opportunistic cash grab during COVID. His partners will property developers for sure.

all the dodgy state pollies coming of their good behavior bonds linked with sinking Balmain,will be looking 4 some splash cash

I'd be surprised if it happens - but you never know - the board of Wests Ashfield is very pro business and football has become a secondary thing. A few people on the Wests Magpies football side of things believe it is a chance of happening and also was the reason Mick Lubinskas was punted as he was deadset against any change of ownership. Conspiracy theory? - probably but it makes good reading.

My first reaction when I heard of this was to lol

50.5% for that amount of money is zero chance imo

Last I heard the majority shareholder has a strong balance sheet.

 

[Merlot]

benny would take his majority and stripit bare

If anyone has the stomach to listen to him... https://twitter.com/FOXNRL/status/1389873816525058049?s=19

Scratched nose at 43 seconds when talking about passion for tigers don’t believe him.

 

[weststigers]

The question is what are the benefits to the team?

You realise WT don't actually own any property or land, right?

Probably nothing in it but if there's enough money offered and Wests Ashfield want out, who knows...

 

[Telltails]

Its really hard to listen to Benny talk. He stinks of shadiness but somehow has managed to become a very wealthy man. Of all the people that could offer financial backing he is the last person I would want to be dealing with.

What does this mean

I think the relationship between the board and the football management and the coach in particular. I think the relationship between that area is a little bit grey.

“You have got to be accountable. The coach has always got to be accountable and I love Madge. “I had lunch with the Madge and CEO Justin Pascoe just a few weeks ago and it was very positive and they have got it all right, but I just think you have got to be accountable for all your actions.

“Madge is struggling at 2-8 and the coach and the club need someone in between there to bolster it up.

He talks in riddles to try and mask what he is thinking then gets all tongue tied . He would stab you in the back in the twinkle of an eye. They are deadset idiots if they continue to engage with him. Benny as our spokesman would make us a laughing stock.

Rubbed nose at 43 seconds due to nose growing pains.

You can also tell that is lying because his lips are moving.

Is WA ready to accept their failures?
Regardless of what you think of Benny, his solution for partial privatisation, same as the rabbits have, is a much faster route to success. It could provide more control over a culture driven revival and allow the board to continue even more focussed on food and beverage cost analysis, pokie, entertainment etc. It’s what Tim wanted. ?
