    I’ve read the statement from the Trust.
    They’d have more luck buying fantasy island.

    It’s a nice touch to tell your members you want joint ownership and a say on the board.

    I’d like a New York lofthouse and a billion pounds.

    I don’t doubt that the Trust want the best but this is just a stunt for both sides to be linked with something that sounds good. The fact it’s being supported by a genuine tool of a man who lies about his partners and pretends he has company affiliates tells you all you need to know.

    It’s marketing.

    Good luck to them if they can pull it off, but it’s a bit like your dodgy uncle offering to buy you a house for cash...

    Yep a long drawn out process.
    January window will come and go and Adkins will find the positives of us being 10 points adrift at the bottom.
    But the lads are giving it a good go....

    The ear or nose biting thread generated quite a few posts. If they’d have stuck to Fish and Chips it would never have happened!

    Have a look at Blackbroken’s website.
    The links are all dead ends.
    The long list of his partners has vanished.
    The media section has a wonderful list of media organisations.

    All good stuff.

    I’m genuinely surprised he’s got the time in between organising half time penalty shoot outs.

    He’ll be as much in the know as me or you...

    Good news doesnt stay quiet for long. Club legends who care a great deal about the club will find it hard to keep it to himself if he does know...

    I'm going to a large Blockchain/Crypto conference Thursday and Friday - so I'll have a word in the bar and rustle up 50m. Sorted. Get the Bolly on ice.

    As I understand it now.

    Duffan & unnamed Saudis

    Or

    UK & US Consortium who after completing the sale will offer supporters the chance of placing somebody on the board.

    Both bids may or may not have the available funds to invest after purchase but it appears only one are openly consulting & including the supporters in their buying process.

    I know which I’d prefer.

    Those half time challenge deano things are bloody embarrassing. Just as the crossbar challenge was.

    Never-mind strengthening the team sort the half time crap out!

    Swansea were sold about a year after being hailed as a model for other clubs to adopt. The main shareholders pocketed a rather large amount if money. The trust, I believe, retained the 21% it held. The trust also had a seat on the main board. He learned about the sale from his morning paper.

    They now have 28 owners, one of which remains unknown.

    Saudi prince and Duffen? Or an epic with a cast of thousands co-starring mushroom man from the trust?
