Can anyone do me a favour and give a rough idea as to where we are now? As I hadn't been on for a few hours, then saw this thread and 11 pages. It's a helluva lot to try to read through, so a quick summary would be good if anyone is willing? 2 IKO posters have seemingly confirmed the dutch are taking over / investing in town. One has a clear allegiance to Dean Hoyle and says it is the best deal for town in the situation, the other who clearly isn't a fan of Dean Hoyle says it is the worst deal ever. Neither probably knows the required amount to back up their opinions due to NDAs etc so probably best to wait and hear the official take and then you can pass a proper judgement, some have taken it upon themselves to wet the bed either in support or rage at Dean Hoyle but I would advise against this route. Oh and the billionaire Americans would have turned Huddersfield into thriving metropolis but Dean Hoyle decided he preferred walking round in clogs even though they rub his feet. Re the bold bit; for it being your first post you've got the knack of exaggeration down pretty quick. Not once has Maynard said it's the worst deal ever, just not as good as the Yank one. And even then he/she added the caveat that the Dutch deal COULD work out. |

Which of Watford and Udinese is the feeder club? Watford will have spent more in the last few years. No idea by how much but it will be more based on them playing in the Premier League. Serie a clubs don't usually pay inflated prices The owners move money from Udinese to Watford to get round FFP. gave an example yesterday. Watford buy Kamara for £3.5m,,, 5 months later gets sold to Udinese for £16m,, immediately is loaned back to Watford. If youre an investor you focus on the club that might earn you most money and potentially Town could earn them WAY WAY more money than AZ ever will. |

Now are you going to grow up, actually pay attention, and accept that your original comment was probably the most retarded in the history of the forum? Or are you just going to continue being a brain dead dullard? "Probably guess". Good try - pick another fact. Brain dead dullard it is then. |

To be honest, not a single person on here has a diddly squat on how the takeover will turn out whichever party succeeds. We don't know their plan, we don't know how much they are willing to invest, we don't know what style of play they are likely to go for; their scouting methods, who the coach will be etc. People seem to nail their colours to the mast like a political party or a contestant on Strictly with very little information, and get all upset if their horse doesn't win. Some people need to grow up... at least there are people out there interested in taking over. Imagine the situation we would be in if there wasn't. This must qualify for the most intelligent assessment of the situation, unless you are actually involved in the actual dealings nobody knows anything. But they do? We've seen time and time again that ITK posters have been correct in the information they have received before the official announcement. Even htafc35, the original poster of this thread, will have been told information by Hoyle or one of Hoyle's associates. It's how this game works - nothing is kept completely private. People have agendas for why information is leaked (e.g. this thread), and sometimes people just can't wait to talk. The situation with this thread is we have two people very likely in the know - one is clearly close to Hoyle, and therefore will be steering this thread to be positively in his favour (i.e. the numerous posts about this being the 'right' deal); the other is relatively neutral, although I sense has veered in the direction of anti-Hoyle recently, for reasons I completely empathise with. The information is in this thread. Whichever way you want to see it is up to you, but don't be fooled into thinking it is false. |

Dean Hoyle's propaganda machine is still in full swing, why are we the only club to have an old owner cling on by his fucking fingernails, just sell up and move on. All this clinging on can't be good for his health...

On transfer dealings I'd agree as there are many ways for the information to leak, agent, scouting, medical etc etc. Big money takeover deals I doubt the reliability of the information, there can't be more than 10-20 people who will all have signed an NDA involved in the actual takeover talks |

Thanks for proving my point. No youre right of course. Im going to show everyone how much I care about the club by spending the day having a tantrum because something I know nothing about might happen instead of something else I know nothing about. Well you're right about part of that, you really do know nothing. |

If youre an investor you focus on the club that might earn you most money and potentially Town could earn them WAY WAY more money than AZ ever will. Agree with that Captain, but looking at the transfers between both clubs, the Kamara deal is the only one that sticks out and is obviously being frowned upon by the EFL. I don't see that loop hole being allowed to continue in the future |

Dean Hoyle's propaganda machine is still in full swing, why are we the only club to have an old owner cling on by his fucking fingernails, just sell up and move on. All this clinging on can't be good for his health... Were not the only club. Its probably quite common for a new owner to require the old owner to stay on in some capacity for a period of time.. as it often is in any business sale. When the Russian Billionaire bought Bournemouth 10 years ago he only bought just over 50% initially. Enough to give him control. The other 50% became his later on,, probably on a time scale set out in the deal. The suggestion ( if theres any truth in it ) might be because they'd have to pass Fit and proper tests, and that can take a long time so will need someone in situ who has up to that point. They ( the dutch ) might want it because Hoyle has long standing relationships with KSDL, KMC and other vested interests in the stadium complex, which they might be looking to develop. Personally id be amazed if he cant wait to rid himself of the ownership, never mind clinging on to it. I dont have any issue with someone responsible for the best period the clubs had in 60 odd years still being involved but dont fret Hoyle haters,,, as a minor stakeholder he wont be choosing managers I wouldn't think. |

Little update after reading a few comments.
Administration
This was a real possibility if a PURE Admins would not agree a deal, deal agreed last week and now Admin is not on the agenda as DH has full control and the ability to sell the club now.
lack of official news
Nothing can officially be said I agree its poor for the fans and frustrating but it’s not possible to make a statement until everything is signed and sealed.
Transfer embargo due to late figures.
Nothing in this at all figures should be sent in very soon and embargo will be lifted just the same for a handful of clubs in the championship.
North American or Dutch
There might not even really be a choice as the Dutch have come up with a deal, North Americans only wanted a championship club and although we might still be one they may not make a deal now.
Dutch bid details
I have very little I can say about the financial parts of the deal, however they come across very professional with many connections across the world with agents, sports groups, and scouting i would expect some interesting unheard of signings, they are also are running a very successful club in AZ and its working very well for them, i heard no suggestion of HTAFC Being a feeder / B Club more they have had success in Holland and want the same in England. We would have an identity and style with a focus on youth development. This deal works as both a Championship and L1 club which is the only way something can be agreed now.
Dean Hoyle
Although it does look like Dean will need to stay involved, is this really a bad thing in order to have a transition to the new owners. If Dean is healthy again and has the drive back with new investment from the Dutch this could be a good thing, I am led to believe DH would only have a background role in the club and for a limited time until the Dutch are approved. Looks very much like DB will continue also at the club. We will have a new manager, new head of Football, new scouting network.
Reading Points deduction
I believe the 6 will happen soon, and the arguments are actually regarding if more deductions will be added this season or not with at least another 6 points on the cards, Reading are trying to fight / delay the new points deductions.
I think we all want the best for HTAFC and most importantly we want all the mess to be over and very soon it should all be a lot more clear.

Without joining in on the Hoyle bashing, if the North Americans are as rich and some claim and could offer us genuine investment why not wait and see for the good of the club if we can survive before confirming anything? |

The owners move money from Udinese to Watford to get round FFP. gave an example yesterday. Watford buy Kamara for £3.5m,,, 5 months later gets sold to Udinese for £16m,, immediately is loaned back to Watford. If youre an investor you focus on the club that might earn you most money and potentially Town could earn them WAY WAY more money than AZ ever will. Agree with that Captain, but looking at the transfers between both clubs, the Kamara deal is the only one that sticks out and is obviously being frowned upon by the EFL. I don't see that loop hole being allowed to continue in the future Its such an obvious attempt to get round FFP that its amazing they got away with it.. or maybe it isnt with the FA, the way they are. But I suppose my thought are the owners, be they dutch or American will put in what they can without falling foul of those rules. Otherwise whats the point of buying HTFC?... you'll never see a. return if you dont. The US billionaires, couldn't start signing players for enormous amounts even if they wanted to. They'd have to comply with FFP. The dutch probably have the systems to get round FFP better though, already owning a club and scouting network etc. |

I've been a ST holder for 25 years and this is as disjointed as I have seen the club. There is no coincidence that more and more people are disinterested with the whole thing. The mention of Hoyle's relationship with KSDL etc is an interesting one, it makes no sense why a new owner would want to inherit those relationships, they've been less than beneficial (that's me being polite) to the football club. Get rid of the link, initiate your own contact with the stadium stakeholders and do a better job of it. Empty promises are the Hoyle Legacy instead of the premier league years, this is sad more than anything else. |

Empty promises are the Hoyle Legacy instead of the premier league years, this is sad more than anything else. This season been shit, but you've seen us struggling in this division on plenty of occasions in that time.. you've seen us struggling in the division below even. So its nothing new if you've been going for 25 years. This wont be popular I know, but as with the sale to PH, Hoyle will balance out what best for the club and whats best for him. It isnt a case of one or the other. Last time there was a bid that was much better for him ( as far as we know ) but he didnt take that option because he didnt think it was the best one for the club. And I think he'll look at this the same way. He'll want as much of his money back out of the club as he can, but at the same time he wont take the worse deal for the club to get it. Problem with people insisting his motives are all about him getting his money back above all else is that his track record ( the evidence ) shows thats not the case. |

Transfer embargo due to late figures. Nothing in this at all figures should be sent in very soon and embargo will be lifted just the same for a handful of clubs in the championship. North American or Dutch
There was not even really a choice as only the Dutch have come up with a deal, North Americans only wanted a championship club and although we might still be one they will not make a deal now. Dutch bid details I have very little I can say about the financial parts of the deal, however they come across very professional with many connections across the world with agents, sports groups, and scouting i would expect some interesting unheard of signings, they are also are running a very successful club in AZ and its working very well for them, i heard no suggestion of HTAFC Being a feeder / B Club more they have had success in Holland and want the same in England. We would have an identity and style with a focus on youth development. This deal works as both a Championship and L1 club which is the only way something can be agreed now. Dean Hoyle Although it does look like Dean will need to stay involved, is this really a bad thing in order to have a transition to the new owners. If Dean is healthy again and has the drive back with new investment from the Dutch this could be a good thing, I am led to believe DH would only have a background role in the club and for a limited time until the Dutch are approved. Looks very much like DB will continue also at the club. We will have a new manager, new head of Football, new scouting network. Reading Points deduction I believe the 6 will happen soon, and the arguments are actually regarding if more deductions will be added this season or not with at least another 6 points on the cards, Reading are trying to fight / delay the new points deductions. I think we all want the best for HTAFC and most importantly we want all the mess to be over and very soon it should all be a lot more clear. Strange that they met Hoyle and Baldwin last week then, when we were even more likely to get relegated than we are now. Would that be the same Americans walking round the stadium t’other week as well? The spin being put on by Htafc35 is incredible, making Shane Warne look average. |

Thanks for proving my point. No youre right of course. Im going to show everyone how much I care about the club by spending the day having a tantrum because something I know nothing about might happen instead of something else I know nothing about. I remember you being as vociferous in your opinions of other posters at the beginning of the season when the majority of us could see what a shitstorm this season was going to be whilst you stood there claiming Rudoni was going to be as good as if not better than O Brien. Each and every time you try and claim we are all moaning about nothing you are proven wrong. |
