    You clearly don't know what he knows SHG, so ner ner ner ner ner!

    I mean, seriously, what is the point of posting that you know the full facts when you then don't go on to say what they are? "Check me out, I know something you don't".

    He has probably either had to call in favours or done some digging where he shouldn't have done to find it out, hence the reticence.

    For me, it confirms what I suspected:
    - there are more backers beyond Slater and Jiminez
    - they do have money
    - they may or may not choose to invest some of this into CAFC - more of a QPR approach than Man City
    - they are not supporters
    - they are looking to make a return out of CAFC - and that could be either through playing our way to the Prem or by selling off and developing the ground if we are footballing no-hopers, hence the "range of outcomes"

    I am beginning to think the opposite Weegie. I don't believe there is anyone behind Slater/Jiminez or if there is they don't have much money at all. Only time will tell.

    I had a gap of five weeks between blog posts because I wasn't sure what to do about the fact that I had received some insights into the takeover.  If I said nothing, then it would have made it very hard to continue writing whilst pretending I didn't know anything.  Conversely it wouldn't be appropriate to write down everything I know because of the way I found out about it (in a social not a business context), and because I'm not in the mood to test any confidentiality laws that may exist regarding British Virgin Islands entities in light of recent news stories. I thus decided to allude to the fact that I had some extra facts and try to give a balanced view as to what it might mean for the club (obviously I don't have all the answers, far from it). 

    I'd say Weegie Addick is firmly on the right lines if that helps.

    I'm not sure of her first name but her surname is double-barreled as she kept her maiden name. She's Mrs Cash-Ondelivery.
