    Do we know if it is the Aussie consortium or otherwise yet?

    This isn't some kind of rumour put about to stop people going over to Belgium and putting the dampeners on Duchatelets birthday bash on 14th November?
    We know he doesn't like to be disturbed on that day when having the sharing platter with his chums in his favourite window seat.

    I feel like we should all go and mill about outside the ground, but I'm busy. Can anyone go and stand in for me?
  • Ah that's why Leon Best hasn't signed yet and next week is going to be a big week for him........it all makes sense now!!!!!!
  • I haven't had my hopes raised this high since just before that time I was told I had a great personality....

    How great it would be before Dec 5! I can make myself available at short notice to help Katrien clear her desk (and Murray's).
  • Refuse to get my hopes up until it's completed and I see the words

    'as part of the ownership change, Katrien Meire has stepped down as Chief Executive '

    is it weird that this gave me a semi?

    Has she actually been seen around lately, I know she has been told to keep her mouth shut (3 years too late), but has she been seen?

    Don't get your hopes up until whatever this is - is officially done. The takeovers complete and it's also confirmed that the "new owners", Aussies or whatever, are not a massive pile of crap themselves.
    Which might take some time.

    At the moment we are producing play off worthy results and things are strangely a tiny bit more settled then usual.

    I hope we keep the manager and the bulk of our current squad post January.

    We need promotion.

    I wish to be in a celebratory mood but the reality is things are always more shit then what you imagine.

    The problem we may simply face is "Roland Residue"

    Even though he's gone. He's left a right f*cking mess...which is gana take ages to clear up.

  • Great news but I'm not getting excited until it's done and dusted.

    She might not be in yet, let alone step down! ;)

    No chance. I will have drowned in a bath of champagne long before that.

    It is guaranteed he will leave a mess. That's why the majority want him gone before it becomes too late.
    Could be argued this season calmer because he and his sidekick have given up.

    Rick the least you could do is offer Katrina a Saturday job selling the Voice.

    Do we know if it is the Aussie consortium or otherwise yet?

    It’s not, it’s my neighbour upstairs and the rowing machine has been the stumbling block and why it’s taken so long.

    That’s now been resolved, she’s bringing it with her as part of the deal, and has got herself an office above Karl’s.

    Hasn't yet been denied by a certain someone on SE7 Valiants. Then last few times she has been straight on it batting it down. Will wait till this evening to see if she comments. If not that may be a sign.
