The Takeover Thread - Duchatelet Finally Sells (Jan 2020)

Fanny Fanackapan

At the risk of being shouted down with cries of "source !" I just want to add that in the last 3 days I've been told that "it" will happen in between 2 & 4 weeks time.

All from different people too.

@magic1999 Did you not read the article on the OS saying that there are two parties who've completed due diligence?

Don't remember anyone "ITK" saying it would definitely be happening by a certain date, in fact @nth london addick and @Redhenry were keen to say that while things were happening it wasn't close to completion.

I'm not ITK but all the evidence from inside and outside the club is that the takeover process began sometime ago and significant progress made by two parties who've completed DD.

Of course that doesn't mean it will be completed soon or at all by those two parties. Until it is 100% done it is 0% done.

Even Richard Murray's February was more about his "gut" feeling rather than a hard and fast promise.

As ever, WIOTOS

All this stuff about likes lol's, flags, promotes, whooshes and thd like reminds me of this limerick:

I dined with the Duchess of Lee
Who asked 'do you fart when you pee?'
I replied with some wit
'Do you belch when you shit?'
And felt it was one up to me.

There you have a Duchess who by title and cheeky question seems to fancy herself, and she is out bantered by a pleb.
One upmanship.
A trait in people (see also 'cool', and 'cardigans', and height and ITKness) that fuels modern discourse.

Thanks Fanny. I trust what you say over many other posters on here (excepting Airman Brown & RedHenry). Anyone can come on here and say "I've been told its next week" or "my friend's uncle works with someone who lives in Floyd rd....."

well I'm clinging on to the comment on another thread by Airman Brown that it could all be a mute point by the Shrewsbury home game on the 24th February.

(not his exact word but can't find comment at the moment or thread)

Think that was on the latest boycotters thread and he said the following.......

Airman Brown
January 22
Football for a Fiver on February 24th looks well timed to me. I reckon the issue will be moot by then

Great to hear but is that not because they've heard it from this forum or the statement from Richard Murray?

Careful @Addickted I got a flag for giving someone a whoooooosh but @Pelling1993 no one was arguing, it's an in-joke about promotes that's been going on for ages (admin bastards!!!!!!!!!!!!)

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Let it go, Henners - move on.

I honestly don't think it could get worse, we are owned by someone who doesn't like or understand football combined with the fact that he doesn't like or understand as to why people would want to watch football. Barabara Cartland springs to mind but she's dead.

Just had Amanda Staveley in my cab. Asked her about Mike Ashley and the rumour about being linked with us. She said she wasn't aware. Said he's asking for too much money (sound familiar?)
She's off the Abu Dhabi on Thursday so I asked her to sell them the idea of investing in us instead. Imagine if that happened. I'd be a hero!
