Ken Cole: What is the latest?

Well done for taking the time to come on and clear things up Ken. Well done.

Hi Ken,
Thanks for taking the time to respond on this forum. I was genuinely intrigued when I heard you were interested in investing in the Dome/ 36ers, because you were the coach when I first started supporting the Sixers and I had not heard anything of you since your coaching years here. Those were great times and I really enjoyed watching that team play.

The ideas you list above sound very positive for the 36ers and basketball in this State, so I wish you every fortune in your efforts.

Thanks Ken. Very interesting comments. Any investment in basketball in this state is a great thing, and I hope it works out for you.

Gazza - Think I mentioned 5AA would, at least, get Maher on, next week, 'cause he's got the job.
(even though - 5AA-Sixers relationship is not good,now)- That's what 5AA said - Not me.

Ken Cole is coming here for discussions about buying the dome and his old club, that he coached to a championship. ( Boti Nagy said)

Is it something important - Maybe not.

Ken Cole and a brown paper bag full of money...
This whole thing smells fishy.
I would much rather have a consortium of local business people in charge.
People that have existing roles within our community.

The powerhouse is a great stadium... But I can see myself catching a tram from work down to the Ent Cent on a Friday night.

Well maybe.

I've heard of wealthy business people with a bit of cash surplus looking for a 5 year investment.

Maybe (with the Dome in liquidation) - they think they can get it at the right price.
MAYBE ? They heard of one of the sixers owners leaving suddenly.

Ya know build it up for 5 years and sell it , at a profit.
( Or maybe make a bit of a loss on it.)

Investing in basketball? He can say goodbye to his wealthy group!

No cap on coaches.

Cole has various world-wide business interests and is coming here 'representing' a wealthy group - looking to invest in it - for 5years.

I wouldn't think SOS would wanna sell.
BUT - I'd guess - Will they move outta the dome and play and train somewhere else. Can they keep renting it?
Issues to consider.
Hopefully they could join forces - as you suggest.

He'll be here in ABOUT a week - to have discussions
and has the funds to buy the Dome and the 36ers.
