Ridsdale is ON board

[Anonymous]

Let's see what 'on board' actually means.What is the price for his cash injection because that is what it would have to be in the short term at least? If as others have intimated it was this or oblivion then sometimes you have to deal with the 'devil'.

It's troubled me all day - the propect of having him on board. It is not a time for rejoicing but perhaps just breathing slightly easier rather than reaching for the oxygen mask. Mind you if he starts to measure up for fish tanks in his office then I would be worried

Thank god it's over!! We are now onwards and upwards!

Welcome aboard Peter!!

Let's show him at the Exeter game he made the right choice!!!

Time is very important to us this season.

Don't forget in the Summer we can lose a lot of high earners and start to re-build.

I've spoken to a few people involved at the club over the last 72 hours and I came to the conclusion if he never joined us we would be in trouble.

let's roll the dice Gentlemen.

Thanks for the news.

Not sure its truly what many of us wanted but there seems no other option.

If this means the end of Mr Todd from our club then some good will have come from this trauma.

Hope its not much longer before we can start to concentrate on the football again.

What about the "other interested parties"? Have the Board held talks with them? Does it just have to be Ridsdale and no-one else? Can it be Ridsdale and one or two others?

Ridsdale and other investors would be the best option.

I guess this is what it would of felt like if Alan Ball had ever become manager

Best News I Think, hopefully there a board shake up, and much needed squad improvements.


hopefully other investors come in too

Other investors? What other investors?

Look, PAFC and Ridsdale pairing up is like two sad and lonely people left in the club at the end of the night. The music has stopped and the lights have come on. You can go home alone or you can swallow what little pride you have left and head off onto the night together certain in the knowledge that you wouldn't dream of doing it if you were sober.

I never thought that after singing 'there's only one Peter Ridsdale' to the Leeds fans at Elland Road during their first season in the Championship that he would go on to be involved at our club.....it's a funny old game

IF it saves Argyle - and it appears to be the only option - I welcome PR to Home Park.

I don't much like the look of Peter Ridsdales entire track record. But, and it's a giant size but. I am a football fan not a guardian of good moral conduct. All I am thinking about now is how I would love us to be in Cardiffs position being regular Championship big guns. Peter Ridsdale, if that what's on offer you are welcome.

Tin hat and full body armour ready.

Don't know the answer to that one Ian, although I agree with your thoughts.

I would normally not be keen for Ridsdale to come aboard but knowing the circumstances we find ourselves in I'm welcoming it.

Roll the dice...

Indeed. Give it a whirl, Mr Ridsdale. You may not be better than any of our other owners, but you sure as hell won't be any worse.

I'm on board with this.

 

[ziconess]

Done deal, any posters on here been taking photos down the Barbican tonight??

I'm pleased at the news, in my eyes if he didn't come on board we'd have been in big trouble.

Should really be on Rumours but it's 100% trust me.

No photos but I did a quick watercolour...Peter and George seemed in fine fettle

marvellous

Totally agree ..... if he can come in and help sort this mess out and save our club then thats fine by me
