    He was known about at least a month before the takeover when he did an interview denying he was buying us.

    But was there much warning of an announcement? I seem to remember it coming as a shock. There have been names mentioned this time and for all we know one could be right

    Despite the CEO once again talking about buyers, not investors, and saying, 'The club remains in a period of exclusivity with a preferred buyer and due to the advancement and sensitivity of this process,' there are already people ripping into it and trying to tearc it to shreds.

    Absolutely amazing from people who should really be hoping for the best imo.

    10th November was the internal date everyone was working against...planned to be announced via the safc website with a follow up supporters group meetings discussing the future.

    The contract is all agreed. (No issues, needs checking and signing...hundreds of pages takes time)...also talks and documents to be completed with EFL talks happening now.

    Missed the date cancelled the supporters meeting..no surprise.

    Person/persons coming in good people apprently..appointments and decisions to be made.

    Edited to get rid of an extremely offensive term, that 'Boot Cleaner' should be ashamed of and embarrassed by <doh>

    The fact that they postponed the meeting with less that 24 hours notice suggests to me that the deal is so close to completion that it could have even been announced today or yesterday and they've waited until the last minute before telling RAWA that the meeting is off. Otherwise why else would they wait so late to cancel the meeting, they might have expected a conclusion by now.

    The negativity and scepticism in our fan base is so frustrating but completely understandable.

    I’m just hoping, and am confident; that this is happening.

    2020 is being saved by November. Donald out (x2). Vaccine found. Boom
