    Well this would likely be the final nail in the coffin.

    Yes but the key word here is "rumours". And even if SR would be open to selling a suitable buyer still has to be found and willing to match the asking price.

    It was with TalkSport, but I think the 1:1 was with Jim White?

    Well I didn’t see that coming (if it’s true). Or maybe Solak just wants another investor who will put money in. Not sure why you’d bother with the multi club model etc if you weren’t in it for the long term.

    If they do decide to sell then that changes everything. Despite all the things they have got wrong, it was said that they are here to grow the club long term and were determined to get it right eventually. If they just up and sell now that they secured our 2nd relegation, that is piss poor.

    Yeah if we're really unlucky we can end up with totally amateur absent foreign owners who only see our club as a means to make money. Even worse we can get ones who haven't the first clue about running a PL team but decide **** it, they'll buy clubs in France and Turkey too. That'd be horrendous. Hope we don't get one of those

    When I saw it, I did wonder if it it was more 'we're open to another investor'

    Interesting. Wasn't Solak talked into this by Ankersen and Kraft? He's now removed both of them from the running of the club so presumably he doesn't think they know what they're doing. It's not impossible he's had enough.

    No idea if it's true or not obviously but not good news if it is. Given all the other changes which will happen this Summer could do without instability at the ownership level.

    As someone who has to listen to talkSPORT whenever I'm in my brother's car, I can only say: lucky you
