Or just a staff pre-game meeting?Red_Pete in Dubai said:Just seen a guy in a 3 piece suit & tie, white haired, giving a talk to about 10-15 others in the Directors’ Box. Lots of hand gestures & gesticulating while pointing out various parts of the ground. He got an ovation at the end & they all headed off inside after lots of hand shaking. He did look a lot like Gerald Murphy. Maybe he was introducing other investors to the club?

You can't fault the logic here.ValleyGary said:I think what people are forgetting about having Australian owners is that they are 10 hours in front and will know the scores before us. All they have to do is ring up Bowyer, tell him where it went wrong and we just win loads of games.
This is the sort of leadership this club has been crying out for for the last few years.
I like these new owners already.7 -

The guy in the suit is the new CEO. The larger man is the new CFO, while the younger looking bloke with the green and red tie is their football advisor, who will be the “Football Operations Manager” - whatever that is?
Is that better?1 -

If it's done then why only 'should' be announced next week?
If it's done, surely it's a given to be announced by Monday latest. Why would they be waiting and waiting to announce it?
I don't know, proof of funds and transfer of funds are two different things and arranging the press announcement etc but don't shoot the messenger who has reported in good faith what I thought I heard him say.

I gave up doing the music about 2 seasons ago, apparently it's been dreadful since I left? (you're supposed to say yes). If I was in the hot seat I would sure make the music choice topical.Swisdom said:1 - I suspect this had to be sorted before we could announce "Jonniesta" this morning
2 - @Glovepup - if you are still the man in power can you PLEASE play Tie me Kangaroo Down Sport before the game tomorrow. Please. Pretty please. That will get the crowd gee'd up5 -
Always fancied that job myself but I didn't like the hours! Also, apparently its not appropriate to play "I'm in the mood for Dancing" when we are at home to the spanners.Glovepup said:
