@haighdavid @SalemPatel I'm bussing and I'm using @piersmorgan quote, takeover signed sealed and done. #mot #lufc
Hope so. But official announcements arnt twatterised. If it isn't confirmed then it would a Bates sized betrayal. FTR I have always thought the TO was coming it's just they were saying deal done long before it was.
Who cares? Two players in with the possibility of more on their way. The TO will take place when everything else has been done. But for tomorrow's game, BMD will finally have the width he and no doubt Ross/Smith have been looking for.
Deal done = all parties prove funds, all agree, legal papers signed ... THEN ... Football League clearance to be signed off to make it official, as regardless of parties reaching agreement they can't take control until the FL says so ... in the meantime they have funded the transfers that are happening and are paying the bills, so "unofficially" running the club ... why did Charlton deal happen so quickly? Well, they actually started their talks in November last year, their new owner owns three clubs in Europe, including Standard Liege in Belgium (cue instant loan signing from them) and this long term experience of owning clubs helped to get FL approval through quicker ... the new consortium only has Haigh with previous, other three have not run a club before, so a few more multiple choice questions to answer: You sell your captain to Norwich for £2m, what do you do with the £1.6m profit after all fees are paid? a) leave it in the club's official bank account b) transfer it to one of your shell companies in the Caymans c) pay your wife £600k consulting fees, write off the rest on private jet expenses d) do some management accounting and show it has all gone to a multitude of costs Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
This morning but only a loan deal subject to us being promoted it seems. So not very likely well have him next season
Cheers Eire, I keep checking the official Leeds United page and it hasn't been confirmed, sick of rumours and all that..
That official site Shaks is a complete waste of time. I barely ever look at it anymore. I know twitter is not everyones cup of tea but at least you can pick up some good snippets in amongst a load of rubbish
Couldn't find that but somethings brewing on "twatter" (like that one) David Haigh was having a curry with local media heads last night then yep, yp and bbc bloke all confirmed kebe at same time, simultaneously. Reckon there is much more to come, eyes peeled. give us a follow 'cos I've just joined @yorkshabastard
Swear I replied to this but not showing, either way something is brewing. All local press were out with David Haigh for a curry last night and then simultaneously released Kebe deal even though it's been sorted for a while. Something is going to happen within next few days.
