    What I'd say mate is that from my experience with people like Methven, they fall into two sets. Either a complete lack of self awareness or they are aware and don't care because they have skin thicker than a rhino's hide. I don't know Methven, but from what's been said about him, I'd say he falls into the second category. It won't matter to him what we think of him, so long as he can get what he wants from being associated with us and by extension the new owners.
    Anyway, I've caught up on the thread now, and finished off half a bottle of Russian Standard to celebrate. Thank god for autocorrect!

    Like that the speculation re: nothing happening has somehow increased since the Guardian Dreyfus article. + schadenfreude.

    Good reply: actually, a very good reply, and appreciated.
    I wasn't offended, I just thought it a little ott, but yeah, i agree....he is a cockwomble.
    Maybe, reading back, it should be me apologising.
    No offence intended mate...

    We all used to play Japs and Commandos in the 1970s. Probably a bit too un-PC now. I guess the updated version would be religious freedom fighters and infidels.

    Can I ask...after this news broke yesterday, when are we looking at this takeover to be announced? as the sooner it is, the sooner we can have the manager situation dealt with....Number 1 priority

    The sentence below sums up yesterday's full statement from RR, if its passed in the next few days then I'm sure there will be announcement by the end of the week

    'Sources tell us that Mr Louis-Dreyfus is now in the process of undergoing the EFL’s Owners & Directors Test, and as such it may be matter of days until a deal is complete, and Stewart Donald’s two and a half-year period in control of the club comes to an end.'

    We've been told to expect some statement in 3 days. Certainly expect it to be this week sometime.
    I feel better this morning than I have in a long time. Seems to be coming to an end at last
    There is a massive job on for the new owners. Lets hope we get the vision realised and start an upward movement

    Just thinking.....As we seem to believe the FPP money is still going to be in place once the Takeover goes through....with MSD investing in Derby prior to their takeover, does anybody know if they are still going to be involved post takeover once the Saudis take control?

    Agree, don't think methven or Donald will have much say, my view is the new set up are ambitious and have long term plans, not flip it for a quck buck

    Might be a good time to keep an eye on company’s house, you would think something should pop up soon
