    How exactly does this square with the “new owners” being introduced as such at the training ground ?

    Who to exactly ?

    Each other.
    So Rick has told me that they were introduced to at least one staff member and other staff members have confirmed this.
    As we wouldn't want any member of staff getting into any trouble, it's probably best to leave it there and no I don't know any names.
    Bruce, this is Richard Murray. Richard, this is Bruce. Right, pub anyone?
    Sexist!

    Bruce's PA, Sheila, was also there.
  • Definitely Varney.
  • I've accepted that the players are much younger than me.

    I've come to realise that that now applies to the managers.

    But now it's the bloody owner!

    Henry, apart from me, everybody is younger than you :smiley:

  • I met Mike Cannon-Brookes (very briefly) once while touring Atlassian’s awesome SanFran headquarters and I have his email. I just left him an email message mentioning the rumour. I doubt I will hear back if anything is actually happening but if it’s blatently false, maybe I will. We will see. Honestly, given the slowdown in tech the last two months, I would think he would have other things on his mind than turning around a League One football club in England.

    as i say his the only 30 something mega rich Aussies i know of, well him and Scott. I helped set up their amsterdam hq, with a few really top guys. as part of the recruitment drive i got to speak directly with both and they were really nice to deal with.

    if it was them i can imagine theyd be quite likeable, i doubt it is however and im not in the know.

    Would be great of course, but the words "mega rich" weren't mentioned in relation to the 30 something. It also said he was involved in Aussie sport, which as far as i can tell he is not. His name was just mentioned as an example of the few very wealthy people in Aus.
