More Tosh if you ask me and that's not directed at James seed. I'd like to think Muir has got sick of hanging around with the Aussie bunch who can't get it done and has now jumped in with another who are on the verge of getting it done. However, i just see it as more bollox fed out to put us off the scent that the aussies were a fabrication. The new mystery 'supergroup' will become the latest bunch that will be forever imminent - until a new one's needed once they also lose credibility.
The defeating silence on anything even remotely resembling a rumour is either extremely good news or extremely bad. I’m very much in the bad camp but one can only hope. Am pining my hopes on NLA’s comment a few weeks back and at this stage it will feel like Wembley all over again if at the last hour something happens. If and when it doesn’t happen I’m becoming a professional troll towards Jim White until he blocks me.
If the Aussies were out of the picture do you reckon Roly would be any more likely to concede any ground to another bid, on the basis that he would no longer have the Aussies hanging around as some kind of "failsafe"?
This is a question worth asking. No one but Duchatelet has the answer.
Fuck off, I've had a liquid lunch and I'm pissed. Hayes you utter Thunder, had hoped it had all gone under the radar. Addicted, fuck off. (still love you though) And I can assure you all that the info I was told came from a completely different source from Airman. So there. As for Fanny's hot pants. I nearly had a heart attack at the thought. Right, I'm off to sober up.
There are some posters who know an awful lot about "bollox fed out to put us off the scent", so maybe that's a comment worth noting.
and there's some who know f~~k all but are prepared to analyse the arse out of every little scrap of information - over and over and over again...
and there's a third species that knows naff all, pretends otherwise, rubbishes any information whatever the source and enjoys winding people up, for kudos from fellow keyboard worriers with even less to occupy their time
Ok, it’s not earth shattering of course... It’s possible that one Aussie investor is fed up with the waiting game. Probably a key investor. May want to set deadline to force some sort of conclusion, or may have done already. Especially with the ‘European’ consortium showing interest.
And the same family issues apply this year as last year, for GM, although missing that window is not critical for the bid overall. GM, after post Wembley conversations, has gone very quiet which I hope is a good sign, so this ‘info’ comes from my other source, who has been accurate in the past. Of course anything could have changed since I received it a couple of days ago.
i was feeling pretty negative about anything happening, and this possibly improves the likelihood of progress, a little bit. It may also potentially increase the chances of the bid collapsing. Quite nervous about passing on even limited info for obvious reasons.
Thanks for that detail, James. I was pretty negative until really RD is not only looking for someone to pay for his mistakes in running the club, but also appears to want someone to pay for his negligent due diligence. So now I'm even more negative.
Folks, I appreciate the long suffering nature of Duchatelet’s ownership has taken its toll. However, can we try and avoid engaging directly with those that you don’t see eye to eye with on this issue based on info/supposed info being put forward. Everyone is entitled to have an opinion on what they think of people who put info forward/why they do it/is it well received etc, but given how much of a powder keg this topic is and how emotionally involved we all are, try to just ignore anything that may lead to confrontations. That goes both ways as well. If you have something you think is of genuine importance, please feel free to share, but understand people are at their wits end with this saga and fuses can be short
just want to make sure everyone gets as maximum enjoyment out of the forum as possible
If I’m going on what Jimmy Seed has said, I reckon the Aussies have given Duchatelet an ultimatum. You either accept our deal as it is or we’re walking away coz we’re fed up with the games.
Would be good timing on the back of Dalman doing the same.
Aha! 150+ new posts! Something must have happened.
When will I learn?
Catching up on the take-over *chortle*, is about the 3rd most important reason I open this thread up, behind looking for arguments and learning new fish / sewing puns.

Dick in!!
I've never pretended to know anything - I've passed on information from very good sources - get over it

At at some point the club will be sold. Until then it’s really not worth wasting your energy on.
yet here you are ..

As much as I want to I can’t keep away!
