    I'm hoping that tomorrow is the signing of the documents day and a double announcement of a new manager and new investment

    Can’t see how any of the names mentioned fit into a takeover by American billionaires though personally.

    surely they’d be privy to conversations if things are progressing.

    I would say Strendel, Pearson with Phillips as No.2 would fit in with an investment by the americans

    It could if they were adopting a horses for courses approach, as each objective is met upgrade the management team
    Hey I can dream can't I :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Just out of interest how many mangers did Man City go through in their journey from the 3rd division to the Champions League
    I admit it, I'm too lazy to look it up

    Expect a similar kick in the balls as the grayson announcement/takeover off a few years ago. Takeover off and a parkinson appointment.

    I wouldn't have thought Parkinson fits the bill, but if its him then we have to support him.

    As @OldNewtown said maybe as each objective is reached we upgrade

    Radrizzani knows them personally. We’d never have been able to attract them.

    Not sure that’s true at all mate.

    They didn’t just look at Leeds, they looked at Villa and Oxford as well. They were open.

    Sounds like the novelty of the Dell Boys has worn off and you’re already looking for bigger and better. Let’s just be content with the multi billionaires we have lined up.

    To be fair mate, I mentioned QSI looking for an English club several months ago, long before the Dell stuff broke.

    It’s not something that’s got any breath in it anyway, but they are next level whales.
