Always reassured when your name pops up mate, I was presuming that you hadn't been posting to much as it was getting very close and you are unable to say much. Always appreciate yours @Wheatsheaf, @Smug in Boots,@Magnus for all your updates. It was never going to be straightforward when it involved Donald but fingers crossed we are nearly there. KTF
Sounds like the deal is very close. You’re right though, Covid is rife at the moment - both my folks struggling with it and also my sister, plus 7 month pregnant work colleague so I’m in isolation. Horrible thing it is. Glad to keep that Covid denying bearded arsehole away from ownership of our club.
Knew him to mate. Was in his class through school. A cracking lad Cheers for info aswell. Hopefully we are surprised in a very, very good way
Sounds like the name/names of who it is, is known now looking at @Prehab26 comments. Hopefully all slotting into place now. What a journey it’s been.
Once again, been hard at graft again today, can one or perhaps a couple or you legends give me a small summary of where we're at re this takeover? Thanks in advance. Have a gold coin.
@Prehab26 have you known who it was for a while or just very recently? Just thinking if its recently then it might be a sign the identity is starting to leak
heaven...unfortunately, since cardiac arrest i became borderline diabetic and the dragon keeps a close eye on the diet now...eat it slow, savour every bite and think of me.
I’m worn out looking at these updates. However hearing about Dean Matthews today has put a lot into perspective.
Don’t think fans will be as gullible as they were when Donald came in and he was all talk with his podcasts etc. I hope they are rich but more importantly I just hope they have the ambition and more importantly the know how and contacts to get us out of this league and back to the premier league. Getting out of this league shouldn’t and wouldn’t be difficult if we had the right owners and manager. Getting back to the premier league won’t be easy and will require decent investment but it’s amazing what a good manager can do.
not a full blown buy out more a shares divvy up Don holding 10% and wanting loads for the last 10, new majority shareholder known but not released yet oh and Parky expected out for Jan
This has been a nightmare mate, I've been given very little info at all, no more than a dozen messages. Even then most of what I've been told is totally confidential. The stuff about Donald was confidential, when I was told, but it's about to come out so I'm doing no harm. He's had one chance to sell the club/make his money and he's made the absolute most of it. If it's all passed and announced one of my first pints will be for lads who've kept me going on the pms when I was starting to doubt it all. Sick of it all now and just want to stop jumping when my phone pings.
Big thing for me is having a 4/5 year plan not just trying to blag our way up with no care about tomorrow
I’ve always thought it doesn’t really matter what style of football you play if you win but this season I feel different. People moaned when big sam came but i had no problems with his football- enjoyed it in fact! The side we have at the minute though with no wingers, no creative midfielders (hope embleton gets more of a chance) no pace and crap strikers is awful to watch. So boring. Haven’t enjoyed one game this season.
