The Way this deal was portrayed as over the line from the beginning was laughable. SOme people involved in the deal were not too impressed that our president let it out the way he did. Not saying that was why, or if, it didnt come through. But this was always going to be a long shot from what i hear.

I do remember having a beer with one of the investors, can't remember his name but he is one of the owners of my favourite bars in Melbourne..........'Transport' bar (top bar for anybody who hasn't been there!).

When i spoke to him, he did mention that Pratt announced it WAY too early and can't understand why?
I also heard for a while that the place accross the road from Southern Cross station was gonna be part deal too.

He told me that if all goes well, it should be confirmed by next week and i remember him telling me to look in Thursday's Herald Sun!........................................That was in July! :cry:

Oh well..............he did buy me a beer so at least i got something out of it!
Nice guy by the way, really top bloke. Sure hope he doesn't mind me posting this.

Youre dreaming... and you have a VERY simplistic view on things.
You just demonstrated everything i thought you were.... :wink:
Judd will be at Carlton..... :lol:

SYNBAD - I Like your style son.

I have been keeping a very close check on your posts and you make alot of sense.

I wont disclose whom i am just yet, but your prediction of Judd coming to Carlton is spot on.

Well done son.

For those that doubt will become a doubt.

wow Synbad, you have a secret admirer - is mummy ok with this?

I may have a simplistic view on some things - at least I don't have an evil view on some things like you do - you know what I am talking about,

nah some stuff happens.... :wink:



Why am I not surprised by your MO.

When something you reckon is a "certainty" falls over, your best defence is "some stuff happens".

FFS.

Perhaps you are not as "in the know" as you purport to be.

So wonderful to be wise after an event with this sort of defence.
Might be better off not trying to big-note prior to an event but then I guess the crowd wouldn't have someone to 'ooohhhhhh' and 'aaahhhhh' over would they.


Are you going to apologise to Synbad Chyna?

He was right all along...... :P

I just spoke to one of the many involved and he confimed that it fell through 2 weeks ago..................

:cry:

Oh well. Shit happens i guess.

As long as we get Judd and we announce this "Massive" sponsership with a certain airline (*cough cough, "Virgin"*???) I'll still be very happy!
