Wubba, it's a special day. May I suggest a glass or two of Chateau d'Yquem with dessert? And of course a wafer thin mint.....
D'Yquem a little rich for me Bowlesy especially on a Thursday. I wasn't planning on a cheese course actually but now you've suggested it I might have to write the entire afternoon off. At the village well dressing festivities last night www.barlowwelldressing.co.uk I did have a very nice pint of Sunburst (zesty, citrus and IPA style) with a side of chorizo, roasted red peppers and black pudding. I even started singing 'The R's are going up' until I realised we already were!! Looking forward to Goodison now.
I will be sampling some of the Slaughterhouse brewery's excellent Saddleback this evening in quiet celebration in Warwick. The splash out will be in Tuscany next week where I am anticipating demolishing some Fiorentina steak and a bottle of Brunello while thinking of Neil. Will miss Everton, but am feeling extremely relaxed about the result now...
Ahh Tuscany...sounds fantastic. I will of course be in that other cultural idyll.....Wigan where I shall sample a top notch pie and a pint
Just said on Sky the Press Conference is due for 2pm and its only Warnock at the moment, but plans have been made to extend the front table to accomdate Fernandes if anything on the takeover is announced before hand. Pfffft.
Well to be fair Swordster its been quite stressful of late, what with Ramage maybe returning and despite my better intentions I have slipped a little. Mind you a half bottle of claret is hardly much of a vice these days is it? Its not like the annual lads trip to Twickenham where I have to check my liver in for a weeks rest afterwards. I was just reading the East Malaysian Times - as one does - and it inferred that Flav retains his 1% shareholding in the club? He loves it doesn't he?
The fact is no outside source relly knows anything - there's a lot of guesswork - I'm waiting to see Sky Sports quote their source as CernyBerny - they don't know the buyers consortium, the percentages, whether Briatore stays, the time of the conference (1.30 or 2.00pm) and even whether Warnock will be sitting there on his own giving another post match interview on the Bolton game...what a way to run a club
Piss ups and breweries to the bitter end eh Goldie? Shouldn't really expect any different by now really...
Exactly right Goldhawk. Let's not start counting those chickens. In a couple of hours we should know for sure whether there's anything to celebrate, so let's just see what's said.
It's starting to dawn on me that there may be no announcement at all this afternoon...just an NW interview!!
We can never be accused of being boring can we? Anyway I'm off to Moran's for lunch now so if anything exciting happens just let me know
The deal appears to be done!! Fernandes = 66% and Mittals = 33% is how sky described it. They said it had been announced on the official QPR twitter page!!!
