    I got told Ehab had sent in Hardakers to remove his Scalextric track layout from the Executive Suite and they also took an unopened pack of 5 mustard coloured John Ford Menswear shirts away.

    It would be much easier to just put something in the match day program.

    Don't you think they would have a leaving do on the last day?

    How about a farewell lap of the pitch by Ehab in a red pedal car?

    Does that mean that many of the clubs employees are total ****s, or behind all this furore he’s actually a decent geeza?

    Note the omission of which year it will be, just that it will be by the end of November.

    Could still be another 24 hours to go for all we know.

    I listened to Sportstalk. The info came from the annoying bloke that covers the Rugby, Gwillam. He was told by senior employees of the SMC that the Allams came to say bye. Apparently the whole of the family were there. RH must have been trying to gather a bit of info between Saturday and now. Gwillam said it was 45 million for the club. Going to be money for strengthening in January.. I'm sure you will be able to listen on catch up. All seemed very plausible, on who the buyer was he just said that the Duffen/Arab bid had been the front runner but wasn't sure. I think the info he gave was genuine so fingers crossed everything goes through this time. Reckons it will be announced in the next 2 weeks.

    Without a doubt it'll take time to get through due diligence, particularly if there are "multi/numerous" bidders. How many is numerous - 2, 3, 3+ ? The more there are, the more effort is required by HCAFC's teams (legal, financial etc) to scrutinize the multi bidders - unless of course the Allams don't care about the solidity etc of these potential buyers. Each potential bidder will require info from HCAFC's team of merger/acquisition personnel/consultants. The more there are, the thinner that team will be spread.

    It was five years ago today, that we attended the meeting with Assem Allam to try and get him to cease his hair-brained name change idea.

    How different things might have been if he hadn't completely ignored everything we said.

    Please let this be true, I'm feeling more optimistic of a sale this time around than previously, the celebrations will be wild when they've finally ****ed off.
