    I guess the team doesn't need to be there to discuss new owners/plans etc.

    I just think that we will be taken over and the annoucement will happen just before/after the transfer window closes.
    For me it just makes sense that regardless how much money will be brought in that we do not show our cards. I reckon we are currently signing/talking to players and getting them at a normal price

    There will be no significant, additional funding. Any transfers will have to be paid for by fees received.

    I don't think there will be millions, but we don't really know that do we? You're really saying there's no chance of the new board even giving Parkinson £500k to spend? The current board have no real money to invest, surely they want a new board that can at least put something into the club?

    No sales = no money for purchases, but, the club stays afloat.

    You seem to be talking in absolutes but of course we have no way of knowing. I would have thought that any board taking control would have budgeted to have some money to spend. Otherwise it's a little like buying a house and having no money to furnish it.

    That's a very, very good analogy, in my opinion. So, we're going to end up in a new house, with no money for furnishing. Instead of being made homeless.

    Well Parky states that we may be operating on different levels in the market depending on what happens, so assuming he is talking about wether a takeover happens or not I think its fair to say there will be a significant cash boost should it come to fruition.

    Not sure that any takeover being announced just before or after the transfer window closes really fits the current facts. The Barnsley manager has been quoted as saying that he has been told that the deal for Gray was being held up by the takeover and was under the impression that it was due to happen last week and didn`t. More loose ends to tie up or bigger problems ? Parkys comments about buying players from different pot depending on takeover would imply to me that the deal is not done and is still ongoing or off.

    No, Barnsley's manager said he thought the deal for Gray should have been tied up last week (fair time-scale, seeing as Gray's agreed terms and had a medical), but didn't proceed because Charlton's takeover hadn't taken place by then.
