    I like the sound of a protest outside the Belgium Embassy.

    Isn't this a Nick Lowe song?

    Only if you're Breaking Glass.

    72 hours from selling - as Gene Pitney once sung...

    ITS HAPPENING!
  • SolidgoneSolidgone

    I’ll stick to my prediction from earlier this year. It won’t happen until next summer.

    Plays into the mad woman’s argument that it’s somehow about Belgium, when it’s not.
    Fair point.

    Shiiiiit.
    Just checked in because I had a magical feeling it might have happened, saw over 100 new posts..... then saw the changed thread title. Feels like a punch in the stomach.
    Going to my first match of the season tonight and now I'm not in the mood.

    Not if the focus is clearly Roland, not Belgium. Aim to embarrass him.

    Proactive MOD award goes to Gobbles.
    If that's an inducement to get the deal done...

    No doubt there will be a new thread the moment it's confirmed.

    End of the day he is losing millions so only a matter of time

    Why???

    When you have a multi million pound empire like Roland has a nice little company losing a few quid offsets a bit of tax.

    His reason to sell us will not be based on him losing money.

    If you think he doesn't care about one of his business' losing money, you are very much mistaken.
    If you are going to quote me and put it up in bold please get the facts right. I never said he does not care about losing money. I said, and I quote "His reason to sell us will not be based on him losing money"

    Burger Boys is my new favourite nickname for No Cahones. I wonder if he wears a cape.

    Here's a great opportunity to engage with, and ask questions of, someone who may be in the know...

    I think the best place to embarrass him is in St Truiden, but is there any appetite for enough of us to go over again? What did we take last time 300? 400? Could we take more?

    He's in a Birmingham gang?

    Gobbles? Are our new owners from Turkey?
    Haha - I was ready for this one

    I wasn’t - I’ll just add to the list

    Interesting you get AFKA giving it large telling everyone to stay on topic, but you don’t see him when my honour needs defending and new misappropriations start
    Stop whinging. It's not about you it's about the nationality of the new owner.
    AFKA cant give it large!

    Sorry seems to be the hardest word.

    so they want to sell the goalposts now - cunning Belgians

    Please please don't take our wonderful goal nets as well. It's the only good thing to have come out of his ownership.

    could always wave banners saying 'Love Belgium, Hate Roland' or 'Roland Out, Belgium In' for example

    Still going tonight if I can find a spare ticket.

    Still my team and if I don't go I'll just watch Man City on TV and be annoyed that we aren't that good.

    And Reeco is playing tonight so I'll see another premier league player of the future in action.

    I have also heard that a serious problem has blown up between the two major parties.

    Can you tell us what that problem is?
    The problem is, and has always been, Monsieur Roland Duchatelet.
