Serious takeover talk

[Smug in Boots]

But I'm not. I'm just asking for more details, and people are jumping on my back. I want it to be a takeover. Is that wrong?

Which you know you won't get.

If anyone had details they'd either post them or withhold them, depending on their persuasion.

 

[wtdog]

Yes. You can indeed.

And this is the serious takeover chat thread. If you don't want to discuss details, maybe this thread isn't for you.

I'd say you are the cuckoo on this thread mind.
And free speech...not when you are hiding.

 

[Smug in Boots]

How do you know?

I know as well as you do.

Anyway, you've asked the question so let's sit back and see .....

It’s my birthday tomorrow. Just saying like, I’ve had a great birthday weekend. We went to the Impeccable Pig at aSedgefield yesterday. Great time. Today the family are round. I’ve sneaked out a couple of times to see how the music thread is going.
You know what, kittens do me a birthday favour and give it a rest till Tuesday, thanks mate.

Thread has plodded along canny for a couple of days and then....

Just a thought, but how about we take the interview on Friday where CM said it would help us with phase 2 and that there was money for the academy and scouting as that's the details.

Then just enjoy the ride?

You can tell we're too big for League One, we have not one but two conspiracy theorists jaywalking along Libel Approach who are definitely not the same person

WoW thanks marra. All I need now is a big smacker from @Smug in Boots and my weekend will be complete.
Haway Rivs, you know you want to give me a smacker !

He won't have a positive word to say about it and actually mean it. He'll pay lip service to being pleased but gagging to find fault or try to prove someone us lying, usually based on semantics.
SD can be traced back to the height if summer talking about "investment" and him remaining. It's happened.

I can trace to his first ever podcast with RR on his first day. Said then he could fund L1, any further and he'd need investment.
Conspiracy theorists...knock ya sell oot!

 

[janey]

For reasons known only to themselves there have been some desperate for SD to fail from day one.
Has he made mistakes, most probably, and it’s fine if people question his mistakes and he’d probably admit them himself. But I’ve no idea why some have a negative attitude from the start.
With some he was never given a chance and it seems that now, for those, it’s open season

I've just read this article and although its only the writers opinion, it does make sense, whether its right or not is another matter.

I do think some of it is because the other investors with ex players involved has clouded judgements.

Im really struggling with how anyone can not be pleased these Americans are on board

Totally agree, and can’t help wondering if those ex players would have attracted the new investment

I have never criticised the owners of our club. Basically because I am not clever enough to see what is going on.
There are allegations that S D has taken money out of the club, these allegations have never been explained by the owners.
They should have been.
The owners need to tell the fans what is going on . They are being accused of doing wrong and are not denying it.
Until they do speak out there will be fans who will not trust them and will bad mouth them.

It has been explained but some still won't have it.

The trouble is, they have explained their actions several times. Everything they say has and is analysed over and over and referenced back to things said over a year ago.

Other owners don't give interviews or attend fan functions and you can see why

I think SD has tried to explain it. I think some will still seek to criticise whatever they say
