    Obviously you have no idea. Tubbylard came into being during the fanzine years, him being a major contributor.
    Of course that was in the days we were in the lower divisions so a lot of people will be unaware of it.
    His name has nothing to do with football. Some of us seem better informed than you.

    They're the most accurate and reliable sources. Other rags and other message boards tend to just add a lot of speculation. There isn't much that Twitter misses if you follow the right people.

    Why would they buy an asset they valued at $15 that is only worth $13.20 today for $15 ?

    Obviously.

    And it was a joke about Bruce, I was trying to add some levity.

    There's an awful lot they get wrong. You can find any view that takes your fancy on twitter. One of them is bound to turn out right in the end.

    Who said that's what it's worth? If it was worth $15 to them yesterday, why would they care if they have to still spend $15 today? The club and the facilities are worth no less in absolute terms.

    As Chilton said earlier, the deal will almost certainly have been agreed in pounds.

    No you weren't trying to add any levity. You didn't have a clue. And you have no idea who the person behind the name Tubbylard is or his City supporting, in every sense of the word, history.

    Pretty sure I'd know if my comment about Steve Bruce was a joke or a serious question, not you, but let's leave it there as you seem quite worked up.

    "If you know who to follow". In other words those that write what you want to hear.

    You didn't have a clue. You seem awfully defensive. And clueless.

    Knowing who to follow is what makes Twitter either very useful, or a complete waste of time, it takes very little time to figure out who gets things right most of the time and who gets things wrong.

    So, who gets it right most of the time regarding City?

    Based on the deal being agreed at a fixed price ie say $100m and the currency used is the US$

    You've gotta be joking ? Had the UK stayed in Europe do you think the quid would have strengthened against the $US. Do you think the quid might have plunged had the UK voted out ? FFS, these guys are in the financial industry.

    It will have been agreed in pounds and even if it wasn't it would have been renegotiated based on a significant shift in the exchange rate before the deal was done.

    I was being incredibly sarcastic.

    Maybe the Allams agreed a deal in US$ believing a Remain vote, but got fingers burnt, hence now seeking to pull out...
