    So NLA says that the Aussies are close, but JamesSeed is doubtful that anything at all will happen. As a lover of symmetry, this satisfies me.
    Put it this way, there’s a lot of frustration around at the moment.
    That’s not to say all hope is lost.

    Fingers crossed.
    NLA  is normally spot on.
    With the sale of Charlton if you state nothing is going to happen this week  your looked upon as a ITK spot on type of guy, over the last 2 and a half years. 

    With NLA who is right at the top of the leader board with Red Henry, this is the first time that I believe he has said things are going on behind the scenes. Sensibly he's not playing his joker but it does seem more of a pro active stance.

    May we reach the promised land while our present football management team are in situ.

    NLA is the man, but never underestimate Douchatelet's ability to throw a spanner in the works at the last minute.

    Did I ever mention that you're my favourite Lifer, NLA ? 

    So fickle. :'(

    Spanner? Oh shit, he’s merging us with Millwall!!!

    I never said close close I said are further along 

    there is no such thing as close 

    it’s done or it isn’t done that’s it nothing else 


    imminent  doesn’t exist

    You are breaking your NLA character, you need to be more assertive.

    I just have a horrible feeling that none of the potential buyers business plans are adding up, when Roland's asking price is factored in to the equation. It's probably true of the Aussies, and I expect it's true of all the others too.
    You are just coming to this conclusion? This seemed obvious quite some time ago. As in 1000 pages ago. Of course the numbers don’t pencil out.

    You are breaking your JS character, you need to be more cautious.

    NLA, don't know you but always appreciate your posts, but you have said more than once (I think) that it will be done by the start of the season and I'm hanging on to that.

    I think I’ve said the same quite a few time Napa, keep yer ‘air on. 

    Isn’t it ‘don’t pan out’, rather than ‘don’t pencil out’ btw?

    He's optimistic that there will be a takeover before the season starts.

    Various times he said nothing was happening while others here and elsewhere were saying the takeover was close.

    He's now saying things are moving along and he's convinced it'll happen before the start of the season.
