I posted that the original Staveley bid, for the Mags, would be sacked off a month before it happened.

I posted that McGeady would be told to go at a time when he was considered our most valuable and popular player.

I said Ross was about to be sacked at the same time Donald said he wouldn't.

I said Fuhrman believed he was the new owner at the time everyone assumed it was all 3 Americans.

There's lots of other stuff but I don't have to justify myself to anyone, just put me on ignore or keep off threads like this ...

... better still, post a thread of your own.

Is this salary cap thing going ahead?

Hope this takeover talk isnt a distraction and excuse when we dont sign anymore players.

Not long till the season starts again.

Hope we do get the yanks mind surely they can see the opportunity to make money is there.

Imagine Covid may change peoples minds though.
 
I can confirm that I am interested in putting together a consortium to take over the club. I just kinda need to win the Euromillions first.

The ambition is there though and I’m deadly serious.

I really hope a takeover goes ahead sharpish. The sooner Donald goes the better. If he has spat his dummy out over personality clashes with Mickey Gray then he is an utter clown.

I've never said any different mate.

It's not my fault people are posting a dozen various scenarios and 'covering all the bases'.

I've said consistently that one 'entity' has made an offer that's way below what Donald wants.

However they remain the most likely and credible buyers at some point.

They're the biggest investors and everyone else keeps fading away.

Unless someone gets their act together they'll end up owning us.

I wouldn't normally post this early but I just woke up to a message from a 'friend' in Texas who used to text during the FPP takeover. It's been months since we were in touch so nice to see his name pop up. He's a businessman/soccer fanatic who 'supports' Arsenal as does the Sheikh I worked for, I introduced them.

Anyway he was at an awards function last night, dunno what time it is there tbh, and bumped into people he knows who are also into football. He said it was openly discussed gossip so I'm taking a flier and repeating it. I can't ask as I think it's the middle of the night but can't wait to post this. It's slightly weird that my club is being discussed at a posh do in Texas tbh.

The gist of it is this, no vague hints or initials of people involved. Fuhrman made an offer, which still sits there, that is way lower than Donald's ask. Absolutely nothing has changed other than Sartori has decided that he has little to gain from selling his interest and wants to be involved at some point in the future. That wish, apparently, has been well received by Fuhrman's people.

That's basically it and, as a layman, I've no idea what it means. I thought Donald could insist on Sartori and Methven selling up but might be wrong. I'll wait until Grumpy Old Man, from RTG, is up and about so I can ask, he'll know.

In some ways I'd prefer it if Sartori is involved and not just clinging onto his shares for devilment. And I've no idea whether that affects Donald's attitude to selling to them. In fact it raises more questions than answers imo. I'm just pleased there's still a chance of Fuhrman being involved and, tbh, part of that is to justify what I've been told by other people and what I've posted over what seems like years.

It's also nice to be remembered by a wealthy Texan, never thought that would happen when I was growing up in Durham. When I look at my contacts list it always makes me laugh. I wouldn't dare contact some of them but I keep them on my phone just for fun.

Anyway, i'm half asleep and rambling ... I'll try to get back off if I can.
