I don't suppose it helps when people post little snippets of hopeful info either ...

... I was honestly told last evening that all that's preventing an announcement is simply admin, paperwork and players/staff contracts.

Sorry <laugh>

Fingers crossed mate, this person has no reason to lie which is why I've taken the chance to post.

If someone's taking this much trouble to feed me duff info they'd have to be deranged.

Don't post much for reasons I don't need to go into, except to say I've got fingers like elbows, takes me about 20 minutes to type a sentence.
I read all 635 pages of Smugs first post,"serious take over talk" and now we are up to 822 pages of the "take over rumours", and I've just realised how stupid some people are.
Smug, Wheatsheaf, Magnus and Prehab, have all posted snippets of information that they get. They will generally say if it seems to be a reliable source or not.
But so many people jump on the bandwagon, asking for god know what, details. Some will ask a question, is so and so involved? Then others jump in, suddenly this questionable name is a definite! Or the original info is scrutinised down to the finest detail, which none of the posters can possibly know. Then there are the naysayers who seem to just want to piss on everyones fireworks, and/.or just want to see their name in print
Why not just accept the info with good grace,...see what happens. After reading 1457 pages, I accept the info that is given but don't get my knickers in a twist if things change.
Bit of a long winded diatribe, when I just wanted to thank the guys who give the snippets,Smug, Magnus, Wheatsheaf, and Prehab, for the info you have given us, and keep giving despite the **** they undoubtedly get afterwards. Keep it up

There's a theory that people posting info want attention. I can't speak for the other lads but, judging from the pms we share, they're as bored with all this as me. The latest message I had came from a lady who Whatsapped a photo from the SOL during the Ipswich game, which she deleted as soon as I'd clicked on it. (I didn't know you could do that, quite handy tbh.) If someone is taking this much trouble to feed me duff info they'd need sectioning.

We're doing OK in the league, fun game in the FA Cup and takeover talks acknowledged by the owner, CEO, local journalist and decent long term posters.

Yet some people are intent on denouncing it and griping at anyone posting info.

I've no idea why people can't just relax and hope for the best ...

... isn't that what we all want?

Obviously there are WUMs, but i honestly think for the rest who are 'normal' its surely a case of simply cannot relax as nothing good seems to happen to us.

For those who are post 73, like me, missed 85 cup final but have watched us loose every wemberly trip since...i was ****n lost at half time against man city as we had a fantastic first half & 45 mins away from winning something....then like always the kick in the teeth comes, fluke goal & we collapse.

Apart for Reid era, few short other periods, BSA finally looking like we were in the right direct....BANG kick in teethcomes again....NO CLUB implodes like us, others tend to just drop then stabilise.

Most cant relax because ITHICS.

Am not religious, but am willing to pray we get this over the like, then some will relax, some will wait for the kick in the teeth.....we have to get this right this time, at some point a last tine to get it right will come...that might be now.

Hopefully new owners have plans to grow the club, possibly to much to ask? for plans on FPPs plans, dont know if any ITKs have any info on that.

We all got to stick together if/when this goes through, the football is currently horrific to watch....i could not care less what it looks like as long as we get out of here (still doubt parkinson)...we must get out of league 1.

All we can do i guess is KTF

Mate, I’m as atheist as you can get, but if getting on my knees and praying gets this deal over the line then I’ll convert in an instant.

That was a totally predicable post from me mate ...

... nice to see not everyone is all PC touchy and 'offended' about everything.

I don’t get offended Smug. I live and die by the comments I make and live with the consequences. If anyone gets offended by something I say, that’s their issue, but on that note we have a lot of double standards in play. There’s a Scottish comedian whose name escapes me for the moment who’s routine is to be as offensive as he can. He gets lots of laughs. You or me say what he says when he’s on stage we would get investigated by all sorts of authorities!
