Donald simply can’t afford to **** this up mate, his lifestyle probably depends on it and if all goes tits up we can always sell to the bearded weaponI’m becoming less enthusiast like last year

No problem mate it’s no different to how Smug gets his info. I appreciate anyone that hears decent nibbles and shares them.
However to suit my red n white tinted full blown biased as **** head in the sand love for the useless bastards I’m going for the ‘everything’s looking good’ version. Roll on world domination.![]()
This may not be what people want to hear but it's the best I can do. I 'understand', after asking lots of people, that there's been meetings all week and the participants have changed from last week. I wasn't given much info, as you'd expect, but it doesn't sound like the top level people have changed if you see what I mean. I take it, from what I gathered, that the buyer & seller have dipped out and left things to the legal/admin people on the 'second level'. In my opinion that's a huge step forward but other people might disagree. I've asked Grumpy Old Man, by text, if he concurs as he's far and away the best man to ask. I'll post his response although, sadly, he thinks posting on one forum takes enough of his time. As his choir work has been curtailed I'd hoped his sign up but he's reluctant, I'll ask again.
I wouldn’t expect you to bang on mate you weren’t like that over the road when I was on. But like you say you’re still optimistic but unlike me you’re not expecting it before The News at Ten, toneet.Feel free mate, I'd say I'm very confident that we're nearer the start of the process than the end, so thought I'd add that to the thread to temper expectations, but I'm not going to go on and on about it like some do! I'll follow the thread with interest and discuss any developments that are talked about but I won't go pouring cold water on things constantly, not really my thing! For what it's worth I think people here are getting info from good sources and passing it on in good faith, whether what they're being told is correct is a different matter, I hope it is!
I'd doubt a multi-billionaire would sort out the nitty gritty when he can pay people to do it for him
I’ll do it for less money marra. Take this as my application, I’ll supply my own special tissue.The wife of my Russian boss had a maid who's only role was to pack her underwear individually in specially bought tissue ...
... she would fly her to Moscow, or her next destination, to unpack it.
She travelled to one 5 star destination after another, I'm drunk BTW.

No one has walked away, but I don't think things are anywhere near as advanced as has been suggested. Agreements on price, final sign offs, I don't think we're there yet. This is from someone I've known for years, who I trust, and who I know gets to hear stuff from the club (not prehab, I've not spoken to him since just after he stopped posting on the thread over the road). Like I say though it's no more credible than what smug is saying, hopefully what I'm hearing is wrong and he's right, but I think we've got a waiting game to play before we can think about a takeover.
To be fair, I mentioned on here that some of the things you posted suggested you had a decent source and just hoped you were wrong. With hindsight, I'm not sure you were, especially about Donald and the price, I'll hold my hands up on that one and apologiseI’m sure someone said this last week... and was ridiculed and ‘muted’ ?

Yet @Guinness Guzzler won't be ridiculed or muted ...
... perhaps something you might reflect upon when you post.
What were you in for Smug?I've only ever been in prison once in my life, for 3 days in Monaco.
It was a wonderful experience tbf, a cell with a sea view, great food and a TV. I watched the England v Scotland game at Wembley with my feet up there.
A 'lifer' came round, every day, with the library trolley and I chose 'The Naked and the Dead'.
Sadly I was taken to court and released so never got to finish the book ...
... damn that lenient judge![]()
