We have about 6-7 people leading the way with their oppinions and a very silent majority, quite interested too see what people think of how negotiations were handled.

How can we comment or vote on how negotiations were handled? Do we know how they were handled? We only know what we are being told by others....and even if the poll overwhemingly says that they were handled badly or appropriately what does it prove?

NOTHING....

Guess it depends on who you believe ...

Personally I don't know what to believe - there's a lot of he said/she said going on.

Notably you didn't make the poll public so we can see which people really have a strong opinion about something they know probably about 5% of the facts on...

How about another Poll.

Do you believe Tinkler has tried to change the deal?

Something that Edwards has said this morning has changed my opinion about Tew and Burraston:

‘‘If you read our offer, it states we will underwrite $10million sponsorship and corporate hospitality. They tried to change the definition from sponsorship and corporate hospitality to sponsorship and corporate hospitality associated with sponsorship. ‘‘They said if you do that and count all corporate hospitality, not just corporate hospitality associated with sponsorship, that gets the figure up around $8.9million. We asked them to show us the detail, and for the purpose of drafting we left the offer as it was while we were waiting for the due diligence to come through.’’

Quite right Macavity I actually thought a Tinkler option afterwoulds would have been appropriate, and B-dos I said "It almost seems like".

Just interested in oppinions plenty of sh*tfights in other threads for us all to induldge in.

Alex I considered that but I wanted people to be honest without them happening to be paranoid about someone attempting to crucify them later on for having a different oppinion 8 months later.(Yes perverse thats a dig at you.)

Seriously...this poll is Newcastle Herald stuff. Uninformed people voting with their hearts on a topic we have no real idea what happened to or what is still happening to it.

Would be good to have another poll in the next week or so when *hopefully* we all have enough information to form some solid opinions on.
