    Please excuse my ignorance but why is approval required from 'the EPL'?
    Does he mean the EFL?
    I'd ask him myself but I am banned.
    Evening Major. He does mean the Football League 
    Thanks Shirty.
  • If it was just Reams saying this then I’d think it was a wind up in typical Reams fashion but it seems it could have legs as @SoundAsa£ and others have heard the same thing. Let’s wait and see. 
  • I know nothing and am happy for it to stay that way

    Reams is usually on the ball, nobody is ever 100% spot on.  
    Totally agree with both points.

    Source from the other forum goes on to say in a later comment: “Looks like CAST and their zoom meeting will be a non-event. Too late as usual.”

    Weird to have a dig at CAST in such a way. Almost makes it feel as though the rumour was only started to tee up a dig at the trust later on.
    The meeting is Monday so great news if it’s a non-event by then. The next four days will be crucial.
    no harm in the trust meeting, back up plans are always useful since we don't know exactly how creditable this information is.

    I think TS absence on social media is a massive indicator that something is going on,. 
    I wouldn’t read too much into it. He had no history of using social media before launching his Charlton interest, it’s only ever been used for that, and he stopped in May when things were getting more mixed. No guarantee it was even him tweeting (though I suspect it was). 
  • @SoundAsa£ catching strays on that other site.

    I hope not, I've got shares in them.  :D

    I think TS absence on social media is a massive indicator that something is going on, I'm just not sure what. Maybe at the Brighton game he walks to the centre circle before kick off, strums a few chords of Addicks to victory and then pulls off his latex mask to reveal he was RD all along and walks down the tunnel pissing himself with laughter. 
    To be fair, that would be worth £15 to see.

    Thomas has never used social media at all. Raelynn was behind his Twitter account.
    It’s doubtful he ever sees or has a true handle on what the mood across social media is, although I’m sure he’s aware now. 

    Is that true of his LinkedIn as well?

  • Why sack a manager if you've just agreed to sell the club?
    TS was pissed BG went public with his complaints and knowing the new owners will bring in the own man saw no reason not to be petty and exercise his displeasure?
    Seems an expensive way to be petty.

    Count me in "I don't believe it" camp. Been here too many times with these vague internet rumours.
    Hasn’t there been a rumour of a break clause or one where Sandgaard could get rid of Garner cheap because he failed to meet a target? If that’s true it would make sense that Sandgaard sacked him and the buyers whacked on 50/100k than coming in and having to sack him themselves. 

    Another possibility is new owners didn’t want to come in and sack the manager as their first action. Sandgaard does it, new owners come in and get to hire their choice. 
    Maybe. All seems a bit wishful thinking to me though. 

    And a bit coincidental that just as the majority mood starts to turn towards protest and we see a Sandgaard out banner at a match there’s is a new “takeover imminent rumour”.

    I have nothing to go on but my gut, and my gut tells me it’s bollocks. But my gut isn’t always right either. 
    I don’t believe for a minute that Varney would play a part in any shenanigans, which for me adds credence to these claims.
    My glass definitely half full.

    Me too except Scoham's post pointing to DubaiCAFC's post of 1st Dec, pre Stockport, is encouraging, plus separate origins of similar rumours, i.e from others.

    Well there you go. I could tell it wasn’t being done by a professional, but doubted he’d be interested. So that makes perfect sense. Cheers Olly

    Stopped after "understand that not to be correct" then. Perhaps not a surprise!

    Any chance of getting Rui Pinto transferred to the EFL?
  • Not heard anything from Airman about the rumour?. What's your understanding of this Airman? are we about to be sold?.
