Vertu Trophy Round of 16

Anyone interested in buying the club would surely do proper due diligence so the "honest truth" would have to be exposed anyway.

When the Stewart?s set up the company structure they were careful to set it up as multiple entities

There?s a company that owns the club and a separate one that owns the ground. This was done to protect against the club going bust and creditors claiming the ground. Yes both companies might have the same directors and shareholders but it ring fences the ground

So any potential buyer of RUFC would have to ensure purchase of all companies making up the whole entity we regard as RUFC

A lot of people think it's unlikely the Stewarts would make all companies available for sale or, if they did, the asking price would probably be prohibitive.
I must admit I tend to share that view and as stated in another thread, what would a prospective buyer actually get for their money as the Stewarts don't even own the training ground?

It's what any business man would do, protect the club, but at the same time protect his investments.

But,,,,,,,,,,,remember what happen at Brighton when Archer was in charge.......utm.
