    I've seen some tweets from Richard Cawley copied onto a page at ITTV saying essentially that
    1. the take-over is off.
    2. Duchatelet is going to appoint some people to the vacant positions in the Club
    3. The Club denies there is going to be a fire sale.
    4. Price tags on Bauer and Fosu are so high nobody will pay them, so those players will be staying.
    5. Any players who are sold from this point onwards are players Lee Bowyer doesn't mind letting go of.
    6. Deals [for incoming players] are being worked on with the priority being a Centre Forward.
    Is Richard Cawley known for telling lies? If not then the future now appears to be clearly laid out.
    Roll on August 4th...

    Interview with Bowyer in which he says he has told Duchatelet he can sell five players...if he lets him sign four that he has identified.

    Bowyer would rather have a smaller squad, made up of better quality.

    More worryingly....."the Owner and Steve Gallen are working on the signings".

    That doesn't suggest to me that Two Sh1ts is going anywhere fast.

    All Managers are employees ergo they are dictated to by the owner.

    Most are dictated to, a select few have the broom handle shoved up their arses that bit harder.

    Bowyer's comments about wanting a smaller squad are puzzling. Konsa and Lennon gone, Jacko retired, Amos and JDS gone, Solly plagued by injury. Fosu likewise, Pearce injury prone, Page likewise, are we entering the 5-a-side league?
    Apparently Kashi gone now as well according to Cawley.

    Bauer likely to go, Marshall and Magennis told they are not wanted...the two fools in Ibiza now out of the equation...

    Looking on the bright side, the returning crock Igor Vetekole is the size of two players, maybe he can do the jobs of two as well.

    Bowyer has confirmed that Kashi has left.

    With everybody watching the W/C it's a good time for Roland to bury bad news.

    Do you lot never go on ITTV ? (I know we all do!). BB has said the takeover is still on.

    Buuuut, on the off chance the Aussies can't get the funds to do the takeover, we don't need them. They will need to cover ongoing losses, get some players in, and maintain the Valley in it's fine state of repair, after paying whatever ransom RD demands. To be honest, the club looks way overpriced, and if the Aussies are happy to pay too much, it suggests the same level of business acumen RD has in abundance. As it stands, they may not be fit for purpose, but it's all speculation.

    Colin just get his 'information' from social media & the Newshopper. He's been called out for it, again.

    Angel Delight has posted that the Aussies are about to walk away.

    He's already come out with at least 5 firm dates....this week, next week, 8th June, 15th June, and he's been wrong every time.

    He's now 'getting an update tomorrow'...In other words, he'll do another cut & paste job.

    Pretty much wrote the same thing before seeing your comment.

    Never felt like the Aussies had the clout...

    I don't know if anybody has noticed before, but I don't think Colin is overloaded in the brain cell department.

    The Aussies seemed to be mucking everyone about for a while - serves RD right to meet his equivalent in business but it's done us no favours. And Angeldust seems like a fairly respectable vendor of ITK news - he don't say much, which I like, but his information usually seems a lot more accurate tan others.

    Probably trying to get back into his old office, and sending abusive tweets to Varney.

    Why trust Angel dust? Why trust any ITK?
