The SD thing is all about mike wanting to buy it back again. That’s why takeover is real, he needs actual cash and is happy to see the shares tank. I’m waiting on some info and will share when I get it.
Apparently Mr Kenyon has only raised £200m... Whereas Mr Ashley is a greedy cnut I would imagine no one of sane mind cannot expect him to sell for such a huge loss? I think we all know that isn't going to cut the mustard. You'd also have to question whether you'd want them in as owners if this is the limit of their financial might. I fear we have another Staveley. That being the case I am beginning to wonder if the likes of Staveley and Kenyon are just Ashley stooges used to add flavour to this whole charade.
Starting bid. See if he will accept a cheeky low ball offer to get it donw this year. He won’t though.
I don't think there is a bid. A bit like ours for Almiron. We were hours away from signing him, 5mins later Atlanta United reveal they haven't received an offer. I'd love us to sign him, I'd love us to get new owners who want to spunk a load of money, recent history and reality tells me this is sadly all a charade with no basis in fact. I think Windy and the Lord should keep up the ITK stuff though just for the craic. Eventually they'll be right when Mike dies.
Pretty much being reported everywhere including the Chronny. Obviously they all talk a load of ****e. Just like saying we are signing Almiron or about to be taken over. Its all rubbish with absolutely no substance whatsoever. Deja vu? I'm sure this has happened before...like every December for the last 10 years or something. please log in to view this image
Don't stress! Kenyon with his mega rich backers WILL buy the club. Their first signing WILL be Almiron Their second signing to appease the fans WILL be Massaido Haidara.
Imagine if we all woke up on Christmas morning to the news ! **** the presents I'll be strite (that's a word right?) on the ****ing sauce singing Ding Dong The Fat ****'s gone, which old ****? That Fat ****, Ding Dong the big Fat **** is gone !!
Nah, they're all regurgitating the Sun story. Look, I trust Luke Edwards and George Caulkin. Both stress cautious optimism that something feels different and trusted sources are saying it's happening (as per the reason I spelled out earlier in the thread), but both do state that it IS Fat Mike we're dealing with so truth tends to be in short supply.
I'll believe when Mike packs his bags. I predict he'll still be here come February 1st. Infinitely more likely I'm afraid.
Kenyon bidding low, but isn't that how Ashley works. Doing exactly the same with Debenham's making a low offer hoping to get it on the cheap, much like House Of Fraser.
The Sun reckon that Kenyon is short. If they had said that about Danny De Vito I'd double check it. There is something going on in the background. A London law firm that deals with club sales has suspended all Christmas leave for its Corporate Lawyers apparently. A football club is being sold and quickly.
Reading Luke Edwards, he’s made a sly cryptic comment that Kenyon isn’t the key to this. I wonder about Jim Ratcliffe, or similar.
