Chairman Dalman to meet:

Sat Jul 26, 2025 7:08 pm

Before next Saturdays home game v Peterborough

Dalman will meet The Supporters Club. Trust and FAB

Let’s hope for honesty as we all know he can be a MP.

They won’t get the whole truth anyway.

Remember they denied Bales bid until he had to go out and put it out publicly.


Remember Dalman / Morgan Denied this:

Old News: BUT GARETH BALE STILL CONFIDENT OF HIS 2ND BID

The fact he's talking to anyone is new.

Dalman has been very very quiet for two months.

You'll have lots of "that's down to Vincent to decide" and that's about all there going to get in real answers. Seen it all before from king spin doctor :bluescarf:

But it IS for VT to decide:

If you owned a business and someone offered an amount for it, would you let a staff member decide on the offer or not?

Of course you wouldn’t.

I hope he gives us some positive meaningful info. Hopefully he'll hint that a takeover is imminent.

If he palms it all off as idle chit chat/gossip, it's gonna be pretty gut wrenching.

Perhaps he's been authorised to say whats happening and maybe a time scale? otherwise whats point meeting with anyone considering he's been out of circulation for couple of months!

So what's he going to the meeting for then if he can't answer anything like he usually does not when asked bar the same reply as stated then says to everyone about Vincent keeping us afloat and we should be greatful which is the same crap he always spins money talk ect

That’s exactly how I feel it will go

Always have to be sceptical about Mehmet’s diatribe, so I’m not expecting too muck

At best, I can see a ‘yes, we have interested parties, but ultimately it’s up to Vincent’ routine, as anything more would be surprising. He can’t see a flat ‘no’ because that would not look good at a later stage

But at least he’s talking, so that’s a start after months away! :ayatollah:

Re: Chairman Dalman to meet:

He will play it down. Would be stupid not too.

Maybe wishful thinking as never know what they're thinking anyway! But surely no point in speaking to all 3 fan organisations just to spin usual crap? Trust only yes but its more than that this Time.

Dalman has a lot of money tied up with cardiff I am sure he would want vinny to bugger off also, as he can get his money back either a sale i don' t think he would be to happy if tan plays silly buggers.

There is absolutely no point in dalman meeting anyone under normal circumstances because only a lot of bs spoken and normally he meets just the trust this time he's meeting all three fan groups now why would he do this just to spout bs especially as he's been absent for couple of months.... despite what people think he can speak on tans behalf as he's still chairman of club tan doesn't need ho appear in person to speak to fans .... I believe this meeting is more than just Dalman
Wanting to con fans that makes no sense at this time! More likely to be a progress report of sorts just letting fans know state of play regard takeover.... sometimes people are just blinded by things to do with club and don't think logically.

You have to ask yourselves has Dalman ever been straight with the fans? The answer is a straight no, so we will not really hear what’s going on and if things are not right he will only blame potential buyers for it.

Re: Chairman Dalman to meet:

Sun Jul 27, 2025 6:29 am

Hope i am completely wrong.
But it will be a denial of any bids.
And emphasise how committed VT is to the club.
And their intentions are to get the club back to the Premier league. Guaranteed.

Re: Chairman Dalman to meet:

Sun Jul 27, 2025 7:15 am

Dalman will probably shrug it off and deny most of it as we have got to see through his past behaviour.
It's not an overnight thing and he will want to hardly anything.We are talking about millions of pounds here! Everything needs to be right for both parties. So like I said, it could take time, and I'm prepared to wait :bluebird:

I’ve just been told:

Dalman meeting is positive and good on Saturday .

What is clear is that Tan will sell …that is not an issue .

However , Tan will only sell on his terms, that is the issue .

I know of the Bale …consortium offer ….plus of another offer (which I consider to be a good offer).

There is of course the so called South African offer ….which insiders assure us that is a real and is likely to succeed ….but
whether it is true that they have met all of Tan’s requirements .


My guess is that Dalman is going to tell those he will meet …..that yes Tan will sell …..and yes offers were made this summer …..as well as quite a few over the years, as it stands, everything still needs to be done for Tan to sell ! In the meantime Dalman will say Tan will continue to support the Club in the best way he can .

Re: Chairman Dalman to meet:

Sun Jul 27, 2025 9:22 am

Don’t forget Dalman also put a Consortium together to try and buy us and it failed to make Tans Demands.

Is anything postive with dalman?so we saying now that the South African group might not have met tans requirements?but wasn’t it just all down to tan last week?but is tan playing hard ball and basically wants a bidding war to the highest bidder?
