    This info came from my good friend, ex-employer and in 2 years my future employer.

    He's multi-millionaire Fabrizio Tonna and uses the same outside professional group, in America, used by people involved in the Dell organisation.

    He repeated what had been openly discussed so I'm not breaking a confidence. This is the gist of the conversation ....

    ... These people are looking to regenerate the stadium and exterior including the immediate area, Sheepfolds was actually mentioned which I found amusing tbh. The metro station was also mentioned as was the Audi garage and the Hilton. The overall plan is to encourage investment from local/national/international business, local council, national government, local sports groups, etc to create a long term plan and legacy.

    This is my own guesswork now ...

    .... they want to attract money and other involvement so that people are engaged and not just waiting for handouts. They want to buy the hotel now while we're in L1 as progress up the leagues would give Short the upper hand in selling.

    There's obviously loads I don't know but that's a bloody good start imo.

    Hopefully, if we ever get taken over and somehow get up to 7th we'll be well ran and have some depth with all players wanting to be involved as much as they can.

    Though if you've got squad depth then given players couldn't alway play, would it be wise to do away with basic though still obscene wages like we had before and bring in a more performance related pay? I bleated on a bit more about this in an earlier post here as I feel this will mean you end up with players more hungry for success rather than plodders just taking the easy money.

    We are tiny in comparison to RTG, but that also means that thousands of posts and replies don't get lost by the numbers..

    As people have said though, that's a good thing as it hopefully cuts out all the idiots and attention seekers who aren't there for the conversation.

    I only look at the takeover occasionally, as far as I'm concerned its pretty much done and dusted. Just a matter of time for confirmation.

    I just came over for a gander and to say hello to Hank and reiver ;)

    See my edit (edited twice now) as that was for conversations (PMs). I leave that one on as I may not be browsing any forums but do I get emails so won't miss a PM :emoticon-0105-wink:
