    Fair enough. Agree on Methven, he’s treated the fans with contempt and should go. Just think it’s a shame how it went with Donald. He was so far out of his depth that he ended up a villain. Don’t think it had to go that way but unfortunately it did.

    Could still be Rybovolev if it’s more than 1 new lad coming in like @Magnus has alluded to.

    Just one more thing - this Guardian piece only says that 80% will be owned by the new consortium, 15% by Donald and 5% by Methven.

    It doesn't say what the split in the new consortium is.

    For all we know it's 50% Sartori ; 10% Louis Drefus ; 10% other person A ; 10% other person B.

    So hopefully more is revealed soon...

    I think most were sucked in by them both to start off with. As you say, it is a great shame how it’s ended. Had we got promoted 1st season and they sold us and made a tidy profit, fair enough. Thank you.

    But what they’ve done is unforgivable. And then tried to blame certain parts on the supporters and made up ridiculous stories

    Barnes also saying the club won't be making any comments.

    I've been openly vocal about my doubts about a takeover being close. If this comes off I'll happily hold my hands up and admit I was wrong about that aspect

    OK - now we've had confirmation this IS the deal @Prehab26 was expecting - I'm absolutely buzzing.

  15. I was wrong in detecting an air of negativity then.

    The piece does say that Kyril was approached to be the majority shareholder.

    Gerrin. H'way the new billionaire. Would have preferred the Don to be gone for good but I'm still on for a brew of Yorkie tea with a nice slice of ginger cake to celebrate.
