    I've just read that and started to laugh, I loved Tommy Cooper so I watched a bit of him on YouTube FFS man it took me back 30 years.
    Thank you Iansun you've made my weekend.

    That's why he nominated her for that ice bucket thing on YouTube

    She had no idea what he was worth and having read Trump's How to Negotiate offered just over £10k a week rather than the £50k the mags and West Ham were willing to pay when he went on a free.

    I know what I'd have done, gone to Laandan

    Been away this weekend, we know the details of the investment, or got an idea of when they might come out?

    Unsure and doubt we will these yanks are elite businessmen and won't be leaking stuff out like SD and CM did to the ALS.

    I don't think they'll handle it the way Donald and co did, but I think you'll be surprised. They had leaks when they did a convertible loan to the Marlins, and it was from their side of the deal.

    Why are you being hostile? If there's some kind of takeover potential here, are you not even 1% interested in what it is?

    So am I. So I want to know what happens to it in future. This thread is called serious takeover talk.

    I still think the investment is a good thing, but Smug told us last week it was definitely still a takeover not just a loan. Would like to see that happen and want to know more. Is that ok with you, officer?

    I'm confident in these guys after all Micheal Dell trusts them to manage his wealth so that's good enough for me!

    I think they will take over but further down the line hope the fans don't expect instant changes which I don't think they will. Some will but this is going to be a long term project and if it keeps us self sufficient in the Premier league that's what we all want.

    If it goes further than that and they decide to invest seriously then that's an added bonus but I'll be happy either way.

    This is definitely libellous, I assume you have proof that they leaked it?

    They may never come out, they don't at other clubs.

    It's actually none of our business ....

    .... we're not investigative journalists, we're just football supporters who voluntarily 'invest' a very small amount of money.

    No he certainly didn't ...

    ... and, in any case, building an argument based on a post from a stranger would be very silly imo.

    I certainly wouldn't dream of doing it.
