Define "part". If you want to argue that an offer of "15% for a W-League team and 1 home game" us essentially the same thing as "100% and it's now the Cabramatta Phoenix", then I can't do nuthin' for ya, man. You want to believe the worst of Welnix and that Aussie journos wouldn't publish fiction for attention, go for it.
Btw, sorry for offending some people. I'm not trying to claim that Welnix is a perfect management unit with a brilliant PR strategy. Just that believing unsourced gossip is not good for your health.
How do you know that's what the offer was though? I'd be stunned if only one home game was the offering, I'd expect 3-4 at the minimum. not disputing that the reports were woefully incorrect, but what you are suggesting seems to be the minimum amount possible for a 'part share'.
The offer was for 50% stake, 2-3 games in Campbelltown per season for the next 2 years, wearing black and white strip. WelNix turned down the offer.
so the "unsourced" newspaper report wasn't that far off the mark then?
It reported that the offer was for 100% stake (it wasn't), that the club would relocate to SWS (it isn't), that FFA had rejected the proposal (there was never a full takeover proposal to reject) and that Welnix had accepted the offer (they didn't)
The final point being the biggest factually wrong claim the article made. Welnix turned down the offer.
There was certainly truth in the articles, but it claimed a lot of things that aren't true as well.
