  • This has a long way to play out yet with some twists and turns not all necessarily good turns either, let’s hope the right person gets us and not chancers and fakers 


    Nla saying it's imminent


    Far from it , I wish it was then we may not go from frying pan to fire

    @nth london addick on the Aribo thread, first time he’s hinted the takeover is close

    cfgs said:
    If aribo stays it’s a sign to me the right people will own us if he goes then those with little funds are going to win 
    Or if he does go, that he doubts Roly will ever manage to conclude the sale.


    the Rat  won’t own us come start of season 

    I do believe this though to be true

    But thought you said that RD will not own us at the start of next season....

     To me if someone says imminent is days max from being done so I would not say that 

    I reckon at best it’s weeks , 

    But I may not be to excited by whom replaces the Rat and that’s not a good thing tbh Jean at all

    Ok, thanks for the clarification, D. 
  • At least RD has the money to keep loaning us money for the foreseeable future. 

    Do we know that the Aussies are willing/able to?

    We have had a couple of years of you telling us nothing is happening/close now your saying he will not own us by the start of the season. Time to dig out the bunting people.

    Henry will be gutted as this thread, his baby, will finally cease to be important. 
  • Id take caution to the fact NLA is not sold on the possible replacements
  • Would take the Aussies over Roland without a doubt. They have stuck around for a long time now, clearly they want to invest in us to an extent and hopefully they can stabilise us for the future. Sell us on for a profit when they hit their ceiling with us. I would take that all day over uncertainty season after season 
    So would I but any new owners need to be scrutinized.

    I'm not saying dismiss them but please no more "they saved the club so we mustn't say a word against them or ask any questions".

    Anyway, if NLA says next six weeks then that's imminent enough for me.

    This thread will always be the greatest of all time.

    It will be even more important after the takeover than before.

    It will live forever, it is immortal.
  • Henry is starting to remind me of the russian computer boffin in the James Bond film, I bet he is clicking his biro like a maniac.
  • la la land lol GIF
    I waited ages for it to zoom into something then got it
  • I simply don't understand why anyone would seriously try to buy the club unless they have pretty serious money to fund a budget at least equivalent to the average budget of the league. Why invest in a club and pretty much guarantee that it will get relegated and lose value and cause upset from the fans? Surely nobody believes that they have some secret method of bucking the system to win without money, if Duchalet proves anything, it is that is incredibly unlikely to work.

    Would there be any questions you'd ask?

    We had no ground and no money and we still ended up getting into the Premier League. I know times have changed a hell of a lot but even small investments can work
  • For anyone who loves a crack at second guessing the thought processes of the clinically insane, you should note that Roland is about to start a trial course of new tablets in just over a week.

    Good luck with that!

    He will miss all of 2019 the amount of time he's spending on this thread.

    Ever taped up a broken shoe?

    Is winning or dancing more important?
