    Slooooooow day.

    "It's the damned infernal heat Carruthers!"

    Obviously too hot for many of our usual strident keyboard warriors

    I'm here what's happened, have I missed anything apart from uboat coming up for air? :wink:
  • 1: Poster who is regarded as in the know posts information that makes it sound like takeover is imminent.

    2: Takeover thread goes berserk as multiple new posts of excitement are made.

    3: Memes and shitposts like this start after a few days.

    4: Thread begins to die as no takeover happens.

    5: Rinse and repeat.

    Sadly we are currently in a stage 4 situation.
    Yes. And we will be for the rest of today and all of tomorrow too, sadly.

    Gone is the hope of a party atmosphere if this takeover happens, it'll just be a mild feeling of relief and thank fcuk for that.

    Looks like the team is screwed until January at a minimum

    I think it will be more like the final scene of Captain Phillips, when he realises that the nightmare really is over.

    Taking the thread slightly off topic but anyone who doubts Tom hanks acting ability just needs to watch that scene. Incredible.

    Let’s hope the saga finally gets wrapped up this week..
    He got freed in 2009 I think mate
    Another Monday morning and the usual non-news. Another week of prolonged agony popping onto CL periodically in the vain hope that there will some good news from those ITK. Why do I bother?

    No one's ITK. There are some who might hear something a few minutes before you perhaps.

    If I hear anything it goes here asap. (Well once I've cooked dinner maybe).
    I heard a lot happened at the end of last week, so you'd imagine they'd be taking stock of what's what today.

    Buy the damn club you Aussies.
    Can I ask if that is good news, bad news or don’t know news?

  • Bugger thought I covered that by don’t know news, but your probably right I should have added a forth option :-)

    It's no one has a fuckin clue news.
  • Sounds like optimistic ‘should happen soon but we’ve heard all that before so ain’t going to say it again’ news to me.
  • This is my take on things.
    I don't for one minute think that people who are supposedly in the know post on here just for the sake of it.
    I truly believe that they are told things in confidence that they wish to share with us.
    The trouble is that as far as I know nobody on here is in touch with Roland.

    And as Roland is the only person who really knows where we are at the rest is all second hand gossip.

    They peel them from the bottom after pinching the end to make a split.

    Correct. Well, nearly. You could argue that what many people see as being the top of the banana is actually the bottom.
