    Don’t get me wrong, he’s still worth a nice penny, but he’s not a multi billionaire in his own right, he has his wife for that

    MadBob also started off by saying nothing is happening so you're probably taking anything he says with a pinch of about this much salt.

    As I read it, the roles have been identified and all the work has gone in, with the candidates already selected. L’equipe said we were using an agency, so putting 2 and 2 together, that is part of the costs that prehab is alluding to. A lot of money has been invested so far and they wouldn’t be doing that without any penalties should it fall through at this late stage. Of course the takeover ink isn’t dry but it doesn’t mean that “pre nuptial” contracts haven’t been
    All just guesswork by the way

    The negativity from a significant vocal but ultimate minority of the supporters who seem wallow in misery and only see the dark in everything relating to the club is shocking and some need to have a serious reality check.

    To be honest I could not really give a toss who the owners /manager/ players are as long as they give 100% and do their best like silent majority do in supporting our club then thats all we ask.

    Football is no longer a sporting competition at the highest levels it comes down to which owner has the deepest pockets.

    Why do I still go to games because it matters, its a community its a rallying point.

    Taking my boy to the game - his 1st season ticket was the start of this current spell in League 1. The joy in seeing Gooch score the injury time winner against Charlton, the wide eye look on his face in Trafalgar Square the night before the Checkatrade trophy, McGeadys last gasp equaliser hugging complete strangers in excitement. He has found something that he belongs to that he is attached too.

    So in a perfect world and all the paper is signed will there be a new manager, new owner and new backroom staff announcement all at the same time? Or done in stages

    I’m not negative about the takeover I’m just sick of it, positive words on here then you see something to contradict it, it’s been going on since the play off final 18 months ago.

    I want Donald gone and never to be seen or heard from again, I want Methven shot out of a cannon into the sun and I want Parkinson to take his exceptional CV to another mug of a club who will have him.

    I do but, tbh, it's posts like yours that have put me off posting.

    If you really believe no one has a clue what the f**k are you doing on this thread ...

    ... why not go away and wait for an official announcement, there's a good lad.

    By negative, I’m referring to the posts like the empty ones that do nothing but slag the owners off & throw profanities at them.

    Appears so. Certain stuff can be shared. Others can be not.

    Appreciate the former. Don't abuse the latter
