Today is supposed to be the day.

Maybe in a minute...

Nope.

This afternoon?
 
Sadly I've got to agree with TC; I think £8 million is way over the odds.

What does the Club own?
A crap squad and a few promising youngsters.

In Brief... Methven is briefing a CL member that he is back in the hunt, now that Spiegel's exclusivity is finished. He's even briefing him that he's not briefing anyone any more. Meanwhile Spiegel is not briefing anyone but is not briefing anyone that he's not briefing anyone.

I can’t take any more of the nonbriefing going on - my head is a little sore this morning <confused>

It’s all fine though because a US multi billionaire (well known on another forum) is now negotiating directly with TS and obviously as TS and his lawyers ‘admitted that they’d broken exclusivity previously and didn’t have a leg to stand on’ TS will now have to sell to the US multi billionaire (well known on another forum) completely on the multi billionaire’s terms (well known on another forum). Freshfields have apparently decided willy-nilly to go against decades of legal precedent and breach their client/lawyer legal privilege and release this information to a third party in order to bring about a satisfactory resolution for a second party, completely destroying their first parties position.
This information is from a completely reliable, but sadly completely anonymous fifth party and I am unable to name them or give any corroborating evidence that any of it is true. Just trust me, you know it all makes sense.

I don't really pay much attention to this stuff, but my feeling is a professional businessman would negotiate on the quiet and we'd find out the day the papers were signed.
And I'll add, I've seen fans squabbling on other forum's about how good/bad this or that owner would be. But one thing is nailed on - nobody is going to be asking the fans for permission to run the club. Sit back with some popcorn guys - it's out of our hands.

Dushitelet has his faults but we knew nothing until he bought the club.

I really do not understand this need to leak information to others. Is it some sort of ego trip ? A need to feel important ? Boredom ? Mental health issues ? Loneliness ?

Please can someone explain, as I don’t understand.
I'm not sure why people are so pleased to have their five minutes of fame by being the person being used for news/advertising purposes<doh>
