    Every seems to think any New owners will continue the good work the Allams have done,

    Look at Leyton Orient, Russell Slade one of the managers of the year last season suddenly under the new ownership he will be sacked tonight if they lose to Notts County

    And Leeds have a good new owner as well!!

    Does anyone really think we're getting a new owner?

    I don't.

    Because you think it's a bluff, or because you think no one will buy?

    I think it's a bluff.

    "Bluff" implies some sort of skill, or attempt at deception. He very obviously isn't going to sell.

    Surely that is what the Anti Allam people want.

    The anti-Allam people make up a tiny minority of City fans.

    I wasnt anti Allam, I just wished he'd stop the name change. But sadly I am now.

    I don't think anyone wants new owners. All CTWD want is for our current owner to drop the idea of name change. Unfortunately some have developed this into a personal vendetta against AA and are quite happy to hurl abuse at him on these forums. I don't think CTWD condone that as the statements I have read from them are always respectful and coherent in the views they put forward.

    I don't think he has any intention of selling.

    If he does, please be aware we are not Leyton Orient or indeed L**ds.

    I hope the next one doesn't feel inclined to make "clear the air" announcements.

    Too many seem to think we need to agree with him and his bonkers plan or we'll drop down the leagues. Look at Cardiff who sold their soul for Vincent's redshirts, and have now dropped out of the promised land. That could just as easily be us next with the revolting Hull Tigers monicker (and even fewer 'fans').

    To be honest, I hadn't heard any rumours at all of selling up or him leaving, the rumours only really kicked on when it was announced he was making a press conference. He called that presser to draw media attention, because nobody in their right mind would gather the media together and then babble on incessently, using dated and irrelevant metaphors while handily avoiding all questions thrown at him.

    I don't think we're getting new owners, if the ones we've got weren't so eccentric, we'd probably have a lot less threads like this.

    If it's the chat room I'm thinking of, you could choose a new username each time, and some used to go on in other peoples names for some bizarre reason.
