Mal is about to complete the sale to Adelaide business man Chris Fuss. And Venuetix is about to swoop on the Dome... they said.

Venuetix is no surprise. But, never heard of Chris Fuss.

No idea and never heard of Chris Fuss.

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this person as the evening progresses.

Ben Fitz,

You seem to know a bit more than you let on?

Just while we are waiting for Ben Fitz.
The ch9 (and ch7) highlights were all Hodge.
He passed to Hill. The steal and dunk , the hook, lying on the floor.

Chris Fuss is an accountant and really nice guy. Very switched on person who helped the Sixers get Hodge back.

He would make a good owner.

with venue tix owning the dome there might be room for more 'non-basketball' events i would love to go to a concert or something at the dome.

is he the guy that wanted to buy the sixers originally? Then floated the idea of setting up another SA team, the sharks? Paul Bell's mate?

Or was that someone else?

Nothing else can be done at the dome, local council problem!!! they wont let it happen, and i think it was also conditions of building the stadium, as to not take away from other venues!!!
IM not 100% sure but i think it is something along the lines!!!!

Good to hear we have no probs finding buyers, considering we aint in the red and we are starting to draw good crowds!!! Still like to see the wings on the upper section full!! Back in the day they sold standing only tickets cause all seats were full!!! hhhmmm Maybe

That was someone else Dog94 who has since disappeared.

Wasn't there a thread late last week regarding 36ers being sold that mysteriously disappeared soon after it was posted ?

I smell censorship.

I am sure that Chris would be over the moon with the club for leaking it on the news

Don't recall that. Are you thinking of a topic about the Blaze owner which was invented by the Melmeth-to-NBA clown?

There are many people involved in sales like this, could have been anyone.

It wasn't you Isaac, & I forgive you for forgetting, but SOMEONE posted that Venuetix had bought both the club & the Dome. Whether it be both or singular, it doesn't matter, any deletion/denial erodes the credibility of this site & YOU are the owner.

Venuetix was on the cards for some time.

ease up he just said he did not remember a 6ers owner topic that was deleted. The blaze one makes sense as he made several close to each other.

Don't recall anyone having deleted a thread recently on this topic - probably still around somewhere. Do either of you remember the actual thread title? Was it about the sale of the club, or something else that might've got it pulled (e.g., duplicating an earlier topic, etc)?

There was this one from Nov 6

And another one from October

And I posted about Venuetix/Weslo being on the cards a fair while back too.

DDFan - its a bit rich of you to mention anything about the credibility of this site being eroded as from where I stand the #1 thing that annoys me about this site is your wierd and obtuse rants which often ruin some good discussions!.

Shirley could it be the topic just dropped off the lead page of threads?

It was last week sometime and something along the lines of the 36ers had been sold and it would be official in the next two weeks. Not sure if it was under it's own thread or not, it's not that big a deal.
Just figured someone might have requested it be pulled but obviously that's not the case.
It might be lurking around somewhere still.

It was hardly a big surprise, the signs have been there for a long time.

Anyone like to guess/postulate/speculate what sort of coin would have changed hands?

Bit of a gamble to buy an NBL club at the moment.
You'd have to say the 36ers would be a very good chance of getting into the new league but there's always that very slim chance that someone else might come in and outbid for the Adelaide spot.

Shirley, it does ring a bell but can't find it unless someone can remember a keyword from the title. FWIW, the club have never contacted me about this issue. If it was deleted by one of the mods it might've been by accident, because it duplicated existing content, or because it was by that Gold Coast twit.

Happy with that. Neither of the 2 links were the one I was thinking of, so thankfully didn't have taste foot in mouth. ; )

He added that a guy from the Barossa was after the Sixers as well. Suppose it's a case of who has the deeper pockets
