    Predictable.

    Call it a booby trap.

    Sorry I cant answer right now, trying to get rid of some ****.

    To be honest, if someone came along with the sort of vision that Peter Grieves has, but with real money, I would support them.
    Portsmouth supporters seem to have found someone.

    Surely if Grieve was that intent on owning a PL club, he'd have made other moves at other clubs in the PL or Championship? Yet he only seemed interested in us? Seems odd regardless of the truth about his wealth.

    sounds like the Allams didn't do a basic financial check to see whether the US consortium had any money - then they didn't do a basic, know your customer / fit and proper person check on the Chinese bid - no one tells him how to run is business - **** up after **** up - wing and a prayer - will only sell to good home - full of bullshit - but we already know that

    Yes. Not closing a quote is another booby trap.

    We had a previous owner who didn't have his own cash, but found a backer who did, that panned out rather well.

    In the case of Pearson and Wilkinson, yes; in the case of Wilby and Lloyd, rather less so..

    Ehab told a friend of his recently that the club wouldn't be sold until his divorce was finalised. Yes, I couldn't believe it either - Ehab has a friend!

    I guess Ehab didn't expect Silva to re-appear in the PL. I'm sure he quoted in his interview who wouldn't want to manage a top European side with CL football. Only for him to be appointed manager at Watford.
