Re: Vincent Tan the White van vanished man.

The only interest VT has shown recently is the amount of £ leaving his bank account each month to subsidise the players wages.

Re: Vincent Tan the White van vanished man.

I'm not surprised that VT isn't currently showing a personal interest. He's got enough on his plate trying to keep his total business interests going during the Covid era. The 'virtual' arrival of Abdul Jalil Rasheed as a director suggests to me that VT wants a strategist involved and this is the man. There is no doubt that KC and MD have made some mistakes in terms of personal involved with CC in recent years, and from critical comments made by Mehmet at a recent meeting with supporters groups maybe they are feeling a bit sore about the situation.

Also there are other things to do: HR Owen is a big business for VT and both Mehmet Dalman and Ken Choo are directors.
Interestingly, in 2020 Ken Choo became a director of Ascend Care Ltd, a technical healthcare company based in Reading. Im not sure if this is one of VTs business. Ascend care are a major UK distributor of LFTs...and we all know what they are....so maybe development of this is a priority for him??

Maybe the guy's bitten more than he can chew. At the very least why doesn't he reduce his shareholding in CCFC and allow more experienced and able operators to drive it forward?

Well said, it helps to prop up his investment

Tan likes being in charge. I can't imagine him reducing his shareholding, I think he'd just sell up.

I think this maybe appreciated more when a few more clubs struggle and get points deductions soon enough.

Sadly I agree. The fear I've got is that he won't sell for a reasonable offer and is trying to hold out for much more than the club's worth.

Is his cunning plan to avoid relegation to hope there's 3 teams with enough points deducted finishing below us 😁

well he has kept the club afloat ie we don't seem to be breaking any financial fair play rules at the moment.i think he would love to get rid of us but the sala case is hanging over the club for now. maybe after that we may see some movement either way but we maybe in division one by then

Everyone always says he wants to sell, he had the perfect time after Warnock got us promoted.

Exactly, he should have done it then. He's going to be struggling to get his money back now.

Which is exactly what he needs to do else he will lose even more. Dont think he has what it takes to run a football club, at least he’s not getting the right people in to do it.

Re: Vincent Tan the White van vanished man.

I've been to Tesco , Halfords , Kfc and a few other places this week and not once have i seen the owner of them,,
I don't know why anyone cares if the owner is there or not.

hope your chopper is ok and those wings were tasty, but none of those are playing brizzle next week in a fight for survival are they.

I totally agree. If I were him I'd cut my losses quick and put it down to experience (or lack of in this case).

Re: Vincent Tan the White van vanished man.

All all I can see from reports has had suffered loses due to Covid and of his liabilities he has so far off loaded his 30 million yacht and half of his stake in LAFC , but not us yet ??

He has in my era been the best and most loyal of owners.

Or maybe he has never had any intention to sell.
