Another Offer For Darlington FC?
|
The Greek-based businessman, who is yet to see the Quakers in action, has said that he will give former chairman George Reynolds a bankers' draft for £4million in front of all the fans at the next home game.
In return, Forster expects Reynolds to disconnect himself from ALL ties with the club.
Speaking to the Northern Echo, Forster said: "I propose to meet Mr Reynolds before the kick-off in front of every Darlington football fan in the ground and I will have with me a bankers' draft for £4million.
"I will hand it to Mr Reynolds, that being twice what he said on Thursday he would accept.
"The only condition is that he will have with him a piece of paper saying that he accepts the deal and that he will walk away.
"If he does, on the Monday morning, I will have the club taken out of administration and by the 13th the manager will have the ability to sign players.
"This is my last and final offer, and Mr Reynolds must accept it publicly.
"I will not do the deal in any other way than in front of the fans, and then I want him to walk out of that ground and not come back."
