    Sure it’s Friday today but has anybody noticed Christmas Day is also a Friday? Scheduled tweet with KLD in a Santa costume and a sack full of cash? Sitting in a sleigh with Methven and Rodwell bent over as his reindeer?

    Same here. Its a shame as I've been a member there since the very beginning and was also on the bulletin boards back in the early 90's.

    Me too, i remember it being called the FTM executive board or something like that before it was changed to RTG / SMB

    it was class back in the day and I also enjoyed the speakeasy chat room RTG had during matches, unfortunately it’s gradually turned to **** over the years. I think it started going downhill when they split the board into pure football and smb personally. I haven’t been on it for months now and don’t think I’m missing much. Anything of interest gets put on here anyway!

    A lass was telling her blonde mate that Xmas was on a Friday this year and her mate said let’s hope that it’s not the 13th.

    According to RTG, it'll be a picture of KLD handing SD a cheque for £10,000 labelled "lift repairs" with Johnson in the background checking available free transfers on FM21

    (think Cold War Steve)

    Nixon latest tweet saying it's complicated

    It was always going to be complicated. They are trying to split up the shares a new way. Anybody putting money in would want the final say. So the French chap wouldn’t want to slap in fortunes and only have 38-40 per cent of control. What’s the point of that??

    It's always been complicated, but those who know the details are telling us to relax, so it's not something they can't work through, I'm sure.

    If it happens it happens simple as that

  13. Surely this would have been a fundamental point from the outset though,it's hardly an incidental.
    There must have been agreement on this very early on in discussions,otherwise there wouldn't have been any basis for proceeding.
    The appointments of Speakman and Johnson,together with their interview comments about the way forward, would suggest we're past all that.

    If it doesn’t happen the structure of the club has changed for the better anyway. SD can still get ****ed though.

    Rightly or wrongly, I can't see SD totally changing the structure of the club, firing Parkinson and his assistant, getting Speakman in as well as Johnson then his assistant just for KLD to foot the bill before anything had been totally agreed

    The current owners can't afford the new structure :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    So Donald has tried to “sell” us 3 times since May 2019, every time it gets to this stage where everything is agreed, it seemingly stalls....

    There’s one common denominator.

    Could be good news to be fair. Hopefully KLD takes even more shares
