New owner confirmed…

[Obadiah]

There is no Villa job, they already have Roberto Di Matteo.

I must have missed that in all the excitement. Looks like retirement it is then.

I must have missed that in all the excitement. Strange choice. Maybe they think defending like Wigan is an improvement. Looks like retirement it is then.

RDM didn't manage Wigan. He managed West Brom, then Chelsea where he won the Champions League and FA Cup, and most recently Schalke..

There are plenty of clubs that would snap Bruce up.

I know I just altered it. Brilliant start to my day.

Isn't the Leeds job available yet?

If Vardy goes I think they will struggle to stay in the top half. That is of course they don't uncover another Vardy.

Not the point though is it? The point was about people thinking the new Villa owner's claims are ridiculous while Lester have shown just what can be done in that timeframe.

Any news on the actual take over? I thought I saw in the HDM that the were planning to have it concluded this week but I've seen nothing more.

I posted an article the other day from the HDM that said it was now more likely to take another fortnight.

No news, there was never a suggestion it would be concluded this week.

City yesterday confirmed the Mail's story that three parties were still interested in buying the newly-promoted Premier League club, but the American group remain in pole position and are believed to be hopeful an agreement in principal can be reached in a matter of days.

By what i'm hearing they're holding out for what they hope will be a better deal off the Chinese consortium

You should have stopped reading at "...the Mail understands".

Would save a lot of pain.

I still believe it will happen soon, they'll let us all know when it's done and not before.

Just wish it was sooner rather than later.

 

[desfrog]

It will be done and dusted 5 days before we play Leicester giving Bruce plenty of time to sign new players

I actually agree that there is something going on "silence is gold". As you say let's hope is happens sooner rather than later.

Once we've had one we'll want another one.

 

[The FRENCH TICKLER]

SO no news yet of new owners then. ?

Business as usual then by all accounts.
