    Johnson said in the press conference I think would be limited to u23 signings due to salary cap

    can't remember exactly what he said but it was along the lines of definitely being able to sign those players - not limited to.

    There's no way given how close we are to January that we've given him the job on blatant lies because he could just quit straight away.

    And tin hat on here but if (a massive if) del boy and salmon pants are behind this restructure and giving funds in January I think people will give them breathing space until we're promoted in the summer. Some people do genuinely learn from their mistakes...

    Disclaimer: I want both of them far away from this club as possible

    If the club accept the bailout money we are not allowed to spend money on transfer fees for anybody.

    I don't believe that's correct.

    It's just worth saying that Donald was a high stakes gambler when he "bought" the club, and was a gambler during the absurd and infantile purchase of Grigg.

    He is probably desperate now, but he will always be a gambler, so until this wierd and needy individual's influence is swept away from the club for good, nothing can be discounted.

    That's what I think he will do, gamble on us going up, the bloke is a degenerate gambler.

    Wrong
    This has been discussed at length on here. The bulk of the bail out money comes without any tie in
    Its only if we apply for an additional grant that a transfer embargo applies.

    Posted the link earlier in the thread. Basically, all clubs to get the bailout, there are no restrictions.

    If a club applies for a monitor loan (additional money from the premier league) then that is where spending restrictions and further salary capping come in to play.

    I have a good feeling about this week.
    Do you think the renegotiation of the shares will delay things further

    I hope the vaccine I receive isn't the Oxford one, I am fearing one of the side effects may be pure greed.

    Really hope this is true, We need him as far away as possible and if the only way we can do this, is by him taking less shares than before, thats as good as we can hope for.

    It doesnt look like he will **** off permanently until promoted. Hope KLD and Sartori drown him out. We do however need confirmation this is done because people cant relax whilst hes still majority owner.
