I know this links to the website of another forum, but it is a very well written summary of the meeting. All who were there could tell just how hard the staff work to make sure we have a well run club, and I would like to thank them for all their hard efforts. I'd also like to thank Karl, for this excellent article. If you're reading this, Karl, you should have come and said hello. I didn't recognise you. Supporters meeting summary |

One of the points I would like to emphasise is that the club DOES NOT send any working capital to BIHL. The club receives working capital FROM BIHL. |

Thanks, Blacksmith! I was the young, good looking chap in the blue checked shirt and Rolling Stones t-shirt sitting to your immediate left! I had a feeling it was you, but the feeling wasn't strong enough to ask just incase! You're still looking as youthful as ever! :D |

Dunno, I'm just guessing, the same way as the brigade are guessing that BIHL are syphoning the season ticket money off. But the statement backs up what HSBC said months ago, and everyone seems to have forgotten that. |

These 2 quotes are critical to explain to not only the doubters on here, but also the rest of us "believers". "Off the field, the heads of departments are continuing to work very hard to ensure the club remains a going concern. Ian Dutton, Head of Commercial Operations, has worked very hard to secure the Zapaygo sponsorship deal for the next two years and the deal is – financially – one of the biggest the club has done at this level. The club itself IS stable and NO money is being leeched away by BIH. Mike Wiseman was categorical in saying the club does not send ANY working capital to BIHL, no money leaves the club to their coffers. BIHL is, in fact, making an effort to send working capital to support the club. Albeit small amounts." I hope that clears up any thoughts that by renewing STs we're lining the pockets back in Hong Kong. :applause: |

Very interesting choice of words there. So they qualified working capital is not being sent to BIHL. There are many other ways that BIHL etc can be getting money out of the club. One simple way is remuneration of directors and another is dividends. Of course there are more ways, none of which would be defined as working capital. Well it seems they have the pulled the wool over some eyes, judging from some posts. Edited by lowdham bluenose, Jun 27 2014, 10:26 AM.

I'm afraid Lowdown, that the phrase "there's non so blind as those that will not see" sums up you and your fellow travellers on the anti everything bandwagon!!!!!! |

Also Andy walkers answer to the question on news from hk was a good one. Was a straight honest answer and his point that some of the stock market announcements cannot be exactly translated therefore to ensure there is no misquoting the news is not announced is a good point Edited by pooley, Jun 27 2014, 01:03 PM.

I think the fact that this thread has been totally ignored by the "they aint getting my money" brigade and yet they're still posting on the "kissing goodbye to a partial sale" thread says more about who's having the wool pulled over their eyes |

Which is a fair point, and one he was clear to make. He's a top - top - guy, and doesn't want to fall foul of misquoting the HKSE and drawing supporters into a false sense of news. Edited by Kaje, Jun 28 2014, 12:27 AM.

One question, as BIHL have got no other concerns at present,where are they getting their money from to send to the club if they reckon they don't have that much,just asking. |
