This is pretty speculative which is why I haven't published it elsewhere or earlier, but there is solid information there were interested parties in block C at the Preston game. These guys are the ones who stand out in that area. If someone knows who they are that could maybe rule them out?

In The Sun article the young lady next to Roly, seems to hiding her identity as she has suddenly realised the shame of being associated with Roly.0

Haven’t read the thread for a few pages, so apologies if this is already common knowledge, but sounds like Muir is in with the Americans, and there may well be a meeting planned in the US, as the Sun has claimed. A deal is supposed to be ‘close’.
Whether anything actually happens is another matter of course. Been here before ;-)21 -

With the January window fast approaching, surely it would be a good time for new owners to come in ?
( Hmmm. VOTV late......Could AB be waiting on the confirmation of some imminent news? :-) )3 - Sponsored links:

Have to say I’m clutching at anything, starting to get desperate. Feel so sorry for Bowyer after watching the interview yesterday.5

I've looked at the link regarding Newcastle and if you scan further down there is a tweet from Alan Nixon saying that peter Kenyon brokers deals and the Charlton one is 'live' whatever that means?

and then click on Peter Kenyon trying to broker a deal for Charlton further down the page.0 -

If anyone wants any more inside knowledge just pm me.
Edited. I have now unexpectedly received a number of pms, so I apologise for being a touch sarcastic.17 -

As an aside.....
Crystal Palace are within weeks of confirming a £215million takeover of the club.
The deal could be done before Christmas although usual last-minute snags and negotiation delays may see the process drift into the new year.
City sources have revealed the process of passing the Premier League owners’ and directors’ test will begin this week.
The source of the money behind the takeover bid remains a mystery.
But it is believed to be a diverse consortium of wealthy individuals and companies from different parts of the world.
The prospective new owners have emerged from the four groups who, as reported by SunSport, were courting the club in the summer.
They included a bid with links to former Manchester City owner Thaksin Shinawatra — and another based in America.
Progress stalled when forward Wilfried Zaha handed in a transfer request.
Potential buyers were cautious about proceeding while the future of Palace’s best player was uncertain and also wanted to see how the club started the season.
But it is understood one group never went away and has been holding regular meetings with the club and its representatives in the intervening months.
And it is now all systems go to complete a deal for an Eagles side who sit 13th in the table after yesterday’s 2-1 home defeat to Liverpool.
Josh Harris and David Blitzer, the American financiers who are in co-control of Palace with chairman Steve Parish, have wanted to sell up for some time.
It is understood the consortium aims to buy the whole club, including Parish’s 18 per cent holding and the stakes of minor shareholders, at a cost of about £185m.
Clearing £30m or so of debt would take the initial value of the deal to £215m.
But Parish would stay on to help steer the club into a new era.
