    I wonder if the champers will be won today?
    It would 'seem' that yet another week looks likely to have passed us by.

    According to my thread there are 1011 posts but thats maybe because I've had all of the whispers relating to what is really happening.

    Great attempt carly to goad WSS into spilling the beans if in fact there are any beans or if the tin is open ;0)

    Reds boss Simon Davey told BBC Radio Sheffield.

    "The takeover was supposed to happen and it didn't."

    Is the deal dead? Would he be in the know?

    I read that as it hasnt happened yet. not that it is off.

    I now await someone to whisper me its off.

    I do hope its still happening. Davey probably meant what you read it as Curb_it...I hope. If it does happen I'll see if I can get another signed apology from him like when they beat us 3-0 the season before last.

    Happy to put my neck Swiftly on the line and say............

    The takeover will be announced TODAY (Friday 14th August).

    Then, just like Fred Flintstone we can all shout Aboo Dhabby Doo in celebration.

    I must admit that I thought any takeover would be announced (if ever) first thing in the morning - isn't that when they have to let the City authorities know? If there's no sticky when I log-in first thing each day here, then I don't expect any announcement that day.

    I could be completely wrong, though...

    They announced the Zabeel interest late on a Friday afternoon. They can announce at any time of day they want although I might be wrong. Basically they announce it when it's done or if it's off.

    IF it's anything to do with AEG then my guess is they are preoccupied with all things Wacko Jacko and might not want to do anything until they know if they are getting their arses sued off the by the Jackson 4
