    Takeover ending soon
    Can confirm I have been told the same looks like finally the Aussies have found some decent backing
    That’s what I said?

    Is Valley Bob, the same as Sideshow Bob from the Simpsons?

    And is Redrobin, Batmans sidekick?

    Anyone know who they are?
  • I recall my prediction for the takeover date (on Jimmy Seed's thread) was the 28th February. It might still come true...in 2020

    To make it extra special it could be the 29th February 2020

    No Valley Bob's alter ego is known as Slideshow Bob and loves a good PowerPoint presentation.
  • I’m just wondering whether the unsteady state of Brexit is another factor in the deal to takeover?

  • If a takeover was going to go through, now if about when you'd hope it would happen, as you'd want it to go through in time to allow some dealing in the January window which is 4 weeks away...

    IT IS NOT HAPPENING

    You could have been a bit more gentle in blowing away the straw he was grasping for.
  • Next Fans Forum meeting soley about the takeover will be on 9 January.

    I think the CAFCpicks stuff is a mis-reading of the last FF minutes when it was said that there was another party doing DD (true, I'm lead to believe from other sources) and that this 5th party would make a decision within two weeks.

    That gets garbled in the re-telling to "happening in two weeks".

    This 5th party may or may not have made a decision and if they have it might be to not proceed.

    Wages not paid at Bolton again

    An example of where a club has been sold, but the financial issues have continued as the new owners can't finance the club

    On the Bolton front
    Several Bolton players have told their agents to find them new clubs in January as the club's financial turmoil continues. (Mail)

    I personally think when it does finally happen it will be suddenly, without warning.
    agree and having been saying that for a couple of years.

  • What I want to know is:
    Do we want a hard Rexit or a soft Rexit ?
    A hard sell or a soft cell ?

    We have become a Tainted club as I say hello and wave goodbye to our automatic top 2 hopes, the valley is where the heart is but chips on my shoulder, What, insecure me ? Somebody, somewhere, sometime buy CAFC. I know it's a mugs game, but London's a Fun city where a man can get lost and Mr self destruct buying a football club is a Disease and desire, please mend our Divided soul. I'm loving you and hating me but even if your a Sex dwarf and suffering with Caligula syndrome, have This one last night in Sodom, the valley on a Tuesday evening game is like a Non-stop erotic cabaret.
    Duchatelet has in his tenure done failure, Cruelty without beauty, The art of falling apart will be his legacy.

    Well No Deal can not be deemed an option - It will only lead to sadness heartache and death of a sleeping giant.

  • I doubt it will ever happen, at least not in any pro active or managed way. We are like a Roland possession gathering dust in his attic, or his subscription to a magazine which he annually renews but never reads.

    Isn’t the FF on the 9th only “if it’s needed”?
    So not certain by a long chalk

    we shall see, hope it's not needed but not holding my breath.
  • Not ITK in any way. But, logically, why would you pay out millions when the transfer window is closed and you have very little influence over making on-pitch changes (apart from out-of-contract players and any ambitious owners might not want to take that path). I have my fingers crossed that it will happen on or just before 1st January. I would hope they have drawn up short and long term plans for players in/out, management structure and a plan to get the fans involved in re-building the fan-base and support.

    But, but - there's dozens of parties just queuing up to get the deal done.

    You gotta get in early to avoid disappointment.
  • The meeting in January will reveal that there are 29 new bids on the table. Unfortunately, four of the current five will have withered. The Aussies will just need to get a bit of paperwork delivered.

    And Roland is still desperate to sell

    This is a dangerous assumption to make, regardless of price, you are still committed to 6 months of current running costs. Plus additional costs of new executive and managment structure AND investment in the window, with no guarantee of promotion. That quickly adds up to a lot of money.

    If in was buying the club July 1st 2019 would be my ideal completion date, far less "liability" then.
