    I believe it is but I'm not sure how I feel about it all just yet. Alot of uncertainty

    If this is all true the only thing I'm worried about is where it leaves control, I hope we're not left in a position of two separate groups leading the club.

    no chance he / they buy in unless the balance of control is agreed. It’s not a hostile shareholding purchase. It will be collaborative

    My concern too. KLD has set us off down one path, I can't see it being of any benefit to the club if someone comes in with vastly different ideas. I hope they are buying into his vision.

    They own Belstaff... get in... now I can justify spending so much on one of their bloody jackets :emoticon-0102-bigsm (yes it was in the sale)

    Very exciting times. Like others I hope KLD maintains the decision making role and our figurehead. He has the time and the vision. Hopefully these new people trust him with their money, I would.

    If it is Reece he will have no time to run the club at an executive level and will be buying into and investing in KLDs leadership. I’m relaxed by that.

    In theory any due diligence should be much much quicker now considering KLD and his gang will have got the books properly in order (proper auditors etc)

    Ive decided (without any prior knowledge or inside info) that if its going to happen it's an investment to become equal shareholders with KLD as the figure head to lead the club and the new investors to trust him to run it correctly.

    They see the potential and want a piece of it, but also don't have the time to dedicate to the running of it.

    I've also decided that they will sort the club shop out so it's actually stocked and open properly and we are in fact "by far the greatest team the world has ever seen"

    Always the same. Couple of decent lads sent me a a screen shot a a few just because they interact with me on twitter. But they know that I am not on that forum anymore, they spout bull without my right to reply. Now blocked. Proper rat thing to do that.

    It’s hilarious ! They can’t have a bit of speculation fun without pouring scorn and bile on things.

    It’s much more enjoyable to take things as they are and enjoy the ride.
