    Thanks. Hadn't noticed him before but he seems a right bellend from those posts. Fair chance he'll have a ban.

    You are entitled to your opinion but do not try and tell other people they are wrong all the time - we are entitled to have our opinions and if we choose to use Not606 it is up to us .

    I have to be honest here.

    My judgement, in all of this, has been coloured by two things.

    My ex-employer billionaire Italian told me the Americans were openly talking about the deal, the plans, etc .... and I saw a WhatsApp from Fuhrman to that effect.

    Now, whatever people think of me, put yourself in my position.

    I've had over 40 years of mediocrity and suddenly have this put to me on a plate.

    Seriously, how would you react?

    Couple of things mate.

    First of, does your Italian billionaire ex boss fancy investing in a growing business not related to football? :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Secondly, most sane people have and do appreciate the information you have passed on and understand how excited you are about it.

    I know I can't wait for it to happen and we can get our club back to where it belongs

    Give me a brief outline and I'll consider if it might appeal. In 2 years he'll be my current employer so I have to be prudent in what I propose.

    You never know though.

    No ambition. In 2 years, he should be your employee.

    Morning all! I know the talk in on the 11th is when we will hopefully get the details of the takeover if, as mentioned earlier in the thread, it’s hopefully announced by close of play on the 9th.

    Does anyone know if there are tickets remaining or if it’s sold out. Tried to buy some tickets the other night but for the life of me I can’t find my SAFC customer number :emoticon-0119-puke:

    As a footnote.....just been “over the road” and all they had was 5 pages of people talking about “river sl*ts!”

    It’s just a joke now!

    I have no ambition and the attention span of a bumble bee mate.

    I've started businesses, got them profitable then lost interest.

    My life is fascinating though and full of surprises ...
    ... I've never any idea what will happen next.

    It's like reading a good novel, I just hope there's a happy ending <laugh>
