    After last year I made my peace with the fact we are where we are and no new owners, but as time goes on i figure something has to change....probably just blind faith. Que sera sera...it will happen when it happens

    I think if there is something going on the local press probably know but if the club don’t want them to run it yet they won’t. Keith at sky sports had said he doesn’t run a story without going through donald beforehand, he did also make a comment yesterday saying in his experience the less press coverage the better chance a deal has.

    All the ALS stuff, etc, last time, won't be repeated.

    Donald thought he had little to lose ...

    ... this time it could be everything.

    If 'FPP' are offering a real deal it might be the only one he gets ...

    ... I've seen nothing I'd put money on regarding Gray, Storey, Red Bull or a mystery German gentleman.

    (And, no, that's isn't calling Rubberface worse than shyte ffs.)

    For all he lacks credibility, for all we know he ain’t getting it, if anyone’s in doubt that something is happening Storey and his inane ramblings make it clear that something, whatever that may be, is going on.

    That’s without question.

    I'm confused.com now. Last night it seemed like it was pretty much there with what seemed to be a universally agreed make up of the consortium.

    The mood music now seems very less certain with discussion going backwards to who it is or isnt and how close it might or might not be.

    I would say that's either because they've hit a sticking point or it's gone quiet because it's basically done and they're just getting all the paperwork done and now making plans for how they'll announce it.

    I don't know which one it before anyone asks lol.

    I'm taking that as a positive. Let the lawyers, solicitors, barristers or whatever cross the T's and dot them I's and give us the good news when its all done.

    Not sure why anybody thought the “final hurdle” would mean imminent. The final hurdle could take weeks

    The final hurdle is still usually a canny distance from the winning post imo...

    Why quote 12% then appearing to know something which you obviously don't.
