That was going to be my next point if it were Roberts who would run the club for him?
Caisley or Brian Smith who else?

I would suggest the last 2 bids have some cash. With Roberts interested last time, it would seem more likely he COULD be one of tje bidders. But i won't throw names out there and make them out as fact but with no substance and getting fans hopes up.

If mick throws enough names out there one of themselves bound to be right #intheknow

Well IF Roberts is indeed one of the two then he must have been the late bidder - since we already knew that the Irvine/Madjeski bid was on the table - or was it? Who really knows?

Also, wasn't it doing the rounds that Roberts was the financial muscle behind Caisley's bid?

Who knows pal. All a guessing game.

It's my understanding that Caisley has pulled out of the running.

Enlighten us further Michael..

OK, I'll bite Mick

If Caisley isn't in the frame, who would run the club if the Roberts bid ends up winning?

IF someone pays out creditors 100% then do they need to bother with a creditors meeting? If someone were serious about buying club that would seem easiest way to make sure there bid won.

Good point Mat

Do we assume, then, that none of the bidders have made that promise? That would seem the logical conclusion. And that we have two bidders who have offered varying amounts to the creditors?

If Roberts really is serious, then paying off all the debt would hardly make a dent in his fortune!

Whilst Gareth Roberts is very rich, it as been said he is not a Billionaire as stated previously.
Even more confusion.

I'm not after bites. I'm just saying that Caisley is out.
