I imagine it will be a house building company closely connected to one of our existing shareholders.

Steve Morgan?
Chairman and founder of Redrow Plc.
Recently stepped down as chairman of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Loves football and building houses.
Grimsby Town need to build a stadium by means of a housing development.
Total guess but it would make sense.


Could be his brother Captain Morgan that would be a rum do

I heard the name Dudley Ramsden mentioned at the weekend. Not sure what to make of that but deadly Dudley is seriously minted and Ramsdens have applied to build a shopping village recently, which the council were not keen on. Maybe a Ramsdens shopping village at Peaks Parkway?

Could be but after he fell out with the club a few years back I would be very surprised if he wanted to get involved again.

Agreed and i hadn't even given him a thought 'til someone mentioned his name. There will be all sorts of names thrown around but Ramsden has got previous, is local and is minted. Who knows what his plans are?

I , for one , would be very wary if he got involved with the club again. I seem to recall when he was a director he loaned the club a considerable sum of money ( £350,000 ? ) .Then when he couldn't get his own way over some issue he resigned as a director and immediately demanded his loan back. I don't recall the full details but I seem to remember it was along those lines and caused the club a lot of problems.

Yep but money talks and peoples memories are short if there is something to be gained. I'm not saying it is Ramsden but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if it was. My gut feeling is that it will be a house builder of some sort or maybe a supermarket. I know Lidl are looking to expand.
