    Acworth on top form this morning.

    Long tweetings about how he is a family friend of Status quo and David Bowie no less. His relative wrote Starman and made all of their guitars.

    .....oh..and his non league shortlist is out.
    So if you're reading this Roland/Lee get on it.

    If you don't Guardiola will!
    Still has a way to go to top two_sheds though.................. who once claimed he taught Jimi Hendrix how to play the guitar.

    Didn’t someone (Crawley ?) say that we ought to know more about Dalman in 48 hours ? That was on Thursday I think.
    think that was the Cardiff reporter. 
    Cardiff reporter and we did. The next day he released that ‘statement’ about concentrating on Cardiff.

    Just wondering what is the very last day when new owners could buy the club allowing a decent amount of time to make new signings? I’m guessing 28th June? 

    Fixtures released on 20th June. 
    Season starts on 3rd Aug (with a live game on the 2nd).
    So we’ve got six weeks to gear up for the new season, including recruitment etc.

    Not sure when pre-season training and tour start but it must be in a couple of weeks time? And I feel you need to hit the ground running in the Championship. Remember our poor start last season? All very well in League One, but could be very damaging in the second tier. 

    Had some inconclusive news from the Aussies this morning.  It doesn’t leave me feeling particularly positive if I’m honest, but hopefully there’ll be an update later.

    In that case, could they be losing out Mehmet Dalman?

    That would depend on where MD is in negotiations. Or if he’s still interested. I’m not writing the Aussies off btw.

    Six weeks until the next match. 

    The manager is on holiday, fishing.  
    No replacements have been signed to fill in the gaps created since letting half the team go after the last match. 
    No kit sponsor announced. 
    No contract for the manager or his assistant; and no interviews taking place for their replacements. 
     
    This isn't just a demonstration of bad management of an asset.  It's criminal negligence.  
    Its very poor but I think we will see a bit of activity this week.

    We’ve bought Bonne from Orient for £200k apparently. I assume a player sale is in the pipeline then.

    The thing that worries me most about this, is that I don't know who you mean by "we".

    He did have biblical powers though - taken from us by the Tsunami, only to return stronger and with a greater love of gold!

    I’ve given up on the Aussies tbh. Pinning my hopes on Dalman now.
    I think we all are

    That would depend on where MD is in negotiations. Or if he’s still interested. I’m not writing the Aussies off btw.

    Id turn all that around and look at the positives.
    I might need a bit of help on that one.

    I think it comes from not knowing the facts and thinking just get on with it. You properly know more teh reasons/issues so have more faith that they will be good for CAFC.

    Surely this should be to replace Grant? Orient wouldn't have sold Bonne in January.

    When do you think the Bonne photo with Bowyer was taken? Friday? I assume LB is indeed still fishing and not back in town.

    the lack of stuff in the Sunday papers made me think this has gone too quiet. Something has to emerge this week, otherwise it's all going nowhere quickly. 

    And if the Aussies are miserable, then so be it, they've pissed about for two years now
