That's a clever metaphor for the awful sources you see (not)quoted by the likes of Burns.

Yes we're up for sale.

Yes there is highly likely to be interest. Especially from groups in China or the USA who want a pretty English football club to wear as a trophy back home, and which they'll hope will make them a few bucks, quick too maybe.

Yes we'll be sold. Almost certainly to a foreign consortium.

Does Burns have any actual info? I'd say no. He's relying on gossip or hearsay, but presenting it as more, which is unprofessional, although that seemed to sum up the whole RH team in regards to our club.

It still boils down to us being sold to a faceless consortium, who do NOT have ANY of our clubs interests at heart, the ONLY thing they'll be interested in is making money. If we get discarded in the process, who cares eh?

The only thing worse than the previous paragraph is the addition of Duffen. That will be calamitous for us all.

If/when this goes through, we'll need HCST more than ever, because the changes some of you have squealed about in recent times will be small compared to what will come. At least a protest group will be useful then, even if it still gets ignored.

Indeed so. Burnsy is fishing. I am still to be convinced that the Allams actually want to sell the club despite what they have said.

PL Wonga is a big reason for them not to want to do so.

You think they're lying then?

Seems a bit racist how you assume that anyone foreign will be really bad.

I know Burnsy and he definitely has links and sources at the club, he wouldn't be able to do his job if he didn't.

Are you talking about the potential new owners or the current ones? I haven't seen Allams face at a game for a long time and theyre definitely only interested in the business side of football, as they have said many times before.

I'm assuming any consortium will be bad, there's been no mention of any British ones, so the inferences about racism are all yours. Hardly a surprise.
We all know it'll be bad if Duffen gets added to anything, it'll be bad.

I'm not surprised you support his idle speculation and generic bullshit spreading.

Not the detriment of the club they're not. They're staying away in the interests of the club. Well done, your little clique managed something.

Actually while you're here, you can do something useful. Any idea if Castro is ok? Not seen the old bastard post anything for a while, and I hope he's ok.

The majority of clubs in the Premier League are foreign owned, it's not necessarily a bad thing, I doubt Leicester are too disappointed with their Far Eastern owners.

If Duffman is involved, maybe using connections from our excursion to the Far East for the Barclays Trophy, seems amazing that its 5 years since we were there. Great memories. I'll get my Beijing Guan shirt out!

Aren't you good at replying to more than one poster in one post!

I don't know why everyone has a downer on Burnsy. I actually like him and he's a decent fella having spoken to him on the odd occasion.

I'm probably in a minority, but I actually enjoy his match commentaries.

ive met him a few times and he is as you say very polite & enthusiastic when talking about city! He can go off track slightly when commentating though! Swanny is a dick though! :emoticon-0149-no:

When he does an, Hull FC have more chance of been relegated than top 8 this year programme, i might change my opinion. Only 5000 passes sold <laugh> what would he say if City had that total??
Until then he's a ****
