Here's what we know so far based on Annual Reports, Filings at Companies House and an article in the Herald (I know, I know).
An article in September 2017 with Milne, Cormack and Mike Loggie (owner of Saltire Energy) said that we had raised half of the then £10Million budget for the training ground being £1M from Cormack plus money from Loggie, Bert McIntosh and other local business men. If you take this at face value then it is £4M of donations from local businessmen (no shares were issued for these donations).
Tom Crotty made his first investment of £775K in 2017
In August 2019 the £4.5M of shares were issued following the conversion to a private company being £2M from Cormack, £500K from Crotty, £1.5M from Roger Lee (partner in a venture capital firm and a mate of Cormack/Crotty) and £500K from various other venture capital individuals related to Lee.
So if all of the above is accurate we can account for £10.3M of the £12M spend. Maybe we will get more info when the 2019 accounts come out in November, maybe there have been more donations from local individuals, maybe we will never know.
Now your getting ahead of yourself again...I never said I had evidence at all. I was only suggesting that we are taking dirty money for investment. In fact...not one person has come forward to prove otherwise. The money laundering is clever business so you might be better taking a back seat on such matters.![]()
As a fluffer you must admit why would someone like Tom Crotty (an American) would give Aberdeen FC money for a new training facility? Just because he knows Dave Cormack?But then for some reason let’s Stewart Milne who has contributed for the record absolutely zilch sit comfortable leading our club!
I find it astonishing Milne has the brass cans to sit comfortably at the top of the table but not pay a penny for the new training facility that he needed for The Anchor Man.
It’s a very valid reason to question what money is getting used to pay for these facilities. We will accept dirty cash as it saves Milne spending money. He keeps his place at the top table as the face of Aberdeen FC whilst in the background dirty cash pays for things that he doesn’t want to. It’s happening in football whether we like it or not. Football is business and great for laundering dirty money....we as a club are not going to say no to any investment.
Ah, classic deflection attempts and homo***ual abuse of a local drug user... the board's just like the old days again.
