    I agree. Next season is probably a right off.

    Unless we lose Salech and don't replace him properly then I think we will stay up.

    However a season of consolidation waiting for a takeover which will hopefully mean we can challenge the year after.

    Under Tan we will just slip further down. Let's hope the buyout is sometime next season.

    You're right, talk of a takeover possibly couldn't have come at a worse time.
    When we're changing our style of play (i suppose we'd really need to have had a style to change it) and need a big season, a new manager gets unsettled by uncertainty at the top.
    You couldn't make it up.

    That self appointed voice talks through his hole. He’s all gob and makes up a new story every day.
    Just don’t believe anything he says.

    You can tell when he's lying.

    His lips move.

    Apparently the South African is Gary Otto who is a director of Sutton Utd.

    So? Whatever……. The relevant point is the apparent disclosure of the man believed to be behind one of the consortium’s interested and in acquiring the club.

    Now just say Otto does buy the club and BBM flop’s, then his current clubs’s manager is Steve Morison. Mmm:emoticon-0138-think

    Here’s the latest, according to WOL.

    https://tinyurl.com/dmvr2yk3

    The article also includes this quote about Otto, which makes me wonder if he’s all that serious.

    ‘Otto, who made his fortune in real estate and is a joint-owner of non-League side Sutton United, has a track record of pursuing stakes in football clubs.

    In recent years, he has reportedly made unsuccessful ownership approaches to Leeds United, Coventry City, MK Dons, and overseas clubs including Le Havre, Nancy, and Lugano FC. He is believed to be part of a larger investment group showing interest in the Bluebirds.’
