    lets see what happens next, but I am extremely concerned that it's the Aussies.

    Why concerned? What do you know about them?

    Seems a poster on CL was getting the same info as us. We were told it came through channels from Paul Elliot. It was a Middle East consortium worth over $3b in weath. They wanted a clean sweep. RM didn’t want them and preferred the less wealthy Aussie. Chineese whispers? Or BS?

    Is that true?

    If so my post above should reassure you a little.
    If so it does, funding is my main concern. If they have good backing I will be more relaxed.

    Well whoever it is it will be extremely difficult to be worse than the present tosser.

    I knew as soon as I bought a "Roland Out" Hoodie that he'd be gone!
    (Wish I'd done it sooner....like 4 years ago!)

    :smile: Arry, that's priceless. Good work.

    No! ..... 243 posts on this thread in less than 4 hours.
    I don't suppose anything has happened.

    Haven't people got anything to do all day? :smile:

    .I'd love to know how much the group who dropped out spent on not buying a League 1 football club.

    Question for Airman.

    Does Murray have any involvement in this to your knowledge?

    I don’t bear any illwill toward RM, but I would hope he choose this opportunity to step away from the limelight and choose to watch as a fan, rather than a mouthpiece, link, figurehead etc

    The only thing I have heard is that they didn’t want him on the board and there was a discussion about whether he could be life president (which Maurice Hatter is). But that was some time ago.
    Sounds like he’s going to have to buy a season ticket from now on

    Heard we've agreed a deal with Peter Andre and Kerry Katona to do the vol-au-vents.

    Whoever takes us over, they have had a fantastic opportunity to see how not to run a football club, courtesy of the mad Belgian.

    They obviously need sufficient money behind them, but I would rather a well run club than a club that might be rich but run by idiots. We have just got rid of the biggest idiot of an owner in our history, and that is saying something, and we hardly want more crazy decisions.

    Not your jealousy, AFKA.

    Happy we did the protests, even happier we won't have to do them again.
