Close but no cigar

1. I didn't go shy, I went out
2. The story mentioned by hod80 is NOT on page 48 of my copy of the EDP (I'll scan it in and put it up on the internet if you like)
3. The statement on the Pink 'Un message board is given as:

"I'm keen to sit down with the board to progress this matter further

My investment is focused on buying new players to give Norwich a fighting chance of returning to the Premiership. As I've always said it's not my intention to buy Delia's shares or to pay off the club's debt.

Along with everybody connected with Norwich City, I want the club to progress and not experience another season fighting against relegation to the First Division"

Football365 has
""I'm surprised and at a loss as to why the Norwich City board has not accepted my offer to sit down with them next week to progress this matter further. My offer of investment was focused on buying new players to give Norwich City a fighting chance of returning to the Premiership.

"This was a potential lifeline for the club coupled with a great opportunity to be a contender for next season. The alternative is the prospect of another season fighting against relegation to League One.

"With the new season just around the corner, it's vitally important we conclude this matter soon for the sake of the manager and fans who deserve better in general." "

So the only source I can find for the quote relating to Delia's shares and the debt is the Pink 'Un message board - which I don't trust as a source at all.
If hod80 does have a copy of it I'd like to see it - not because I think he's making it up - but because it gives some clue to Cullum's intentions.
