Fingers crossed for something good , I think we all need it. On the one hand I've heard absolutely no rumblings at all from RAWA, but of course there's always a chance that there's plenty going on that they have no idea about (often they hear from potential buyers because they contact them to discuss the club with the fans group, but no doubt plenty of groups wouldn't bother). On the positive side the season card thing has been so incredibly poor for a business that needs cash flow that it has almost felt as if they aren't bothered, similar to when they didn't promote the play off semi final because they thought the club was being sold so it wasn't their problem anymore. Can't say I'm optimistic but you never know
And followed up in RTG with:

“Probably a load of rubbish but a lad I know who isn’t one for talking rubbish reckons his mate is part of a group who’s been under the radar and there’s a takeover going to be announced today by a consortium Dubai/Manchester based”

More likely the new Nike strip.
 
Gordon Armstrong (not the mod :D ) is a bit weird isn't he?

Agree it'll be something about the new season, but hopefully it's not. Maybe pid has been working to get us sold behind the scenes <badger>
 
A few on rtg are saying Brian Marwood as dof with Gary Cook and another coming in

I've had 3 messages with conflicting reports, none involving FPP ...

... but I'm not on their speed dial so that means nowt.

I've asked someone who's 'in their loop' but he's not responded. He's been very very quiet recently which, as the eternal optimist, I've taken as a good sign.

That Alan Nixon recons it could be about the academy, either closing or losing catagory status.

He doesn't seem to think its anything to do with a takeover, so that can only mean bad news. But then, would he know if a takeover was going through?
