As far as I know the talk in was added fairly recently, unless anyone else knows different I only learned about it about a week or so ago. For me, it's got to be linked to the takeover. Unless I've got it wrong and it was announced months ago, there's no way with all this going on that they'd announce a talk in and charge £15 a ticket if there was a good chance the takeover would still be rumbling on or, even worse, that he'd have to be sat there telling people that it had fallen through. The minute I saw it announced I became even more confident that the deal was done and that they were confident the last bits to iron out would be done before the event, and then when Donald said 1-2 weeks it tied in even more. Not sure if it will be the announcement, or just a talk in (with Netflix etc there) following the announcement, but I'm certain it'll happen either then or before

Yes, it's quite a recent announcement. It will have been well thought through. These things are, despite what people may think.

I totally believe that mate, no doubt.

I've been given a tiny little gem of info, from someone who must surely know the facts, that's given me a real boost.

It's not a massive thing but I doubt it could've happened without everyone's agreement. It's to do with an image at the club and will become evident quite soon. I can't say what but I think it will make people smile when it comes out.

Various people have tried to take the fun out of all of this but I believe they're about to be kicked right in the plums :1980_boogie_down:

After Consett they'll have to get this absolutely spot on ...
... I think you're perfectly correct in your thinking and I believe they will.

Excellent post.

Exactly mate if it was to fall through why would they do that as will know the fans wouldn't be happy.

I've got a feeling it's a CM PR move gain bit more money and get the select few who go to hear first hand before the press etc.

Bloody hope so anyway <party>

New modern badge? I hope they at least change the dreadful motto 'in pursuit of excellence' i.e. never excellent but we try!

I just checked one of those quotes and it's from yesterday mate, didn't check the others tbh.

The 22 posts before yours were all related to the takeover. I, and others, have suggested people take these RTG comments elsewhere and I see someone started a thread about RTG elsewhere. Whatever the case it's nothing compared to the relentless stream of bile and bitterness from over there.

No offence but all your post has done is bring the matter back to the top of the page ...

... which is what you don't want.

People obviously have grievances and are entitled to voice them somewhere. I, like you, hope it calms down and I'm sure it will but quite a few people have been attacked, ridiculed and banned from there and feel aggrieved.

I've no idea if you have but, if not, your viewpoint may be a little different. Having said all that I totally agree with much of what you say.

Welcome mate.

This forum is in a little period of transition but will settle down when the RTG wums are eliminated.

It's a good forum where opinions are discussed, not ridiculed ;)
