    I've just seen Peter Varney and Bill Gates in Central London.

    Knowing our luck we'd end up with Reg Varney and David Gates...
    At least he'll have plenty of bread...

    Shouldn't this be the Spring takeover thread anyway :smiley:

    This thing will still be running by Christmas*



    *It will also not have one shred of a genuine fact within it during that time.

    Page 111. We're going to fill the first 70 pages with rubbish jokes about refreshing and what page we think it'll be announced on.

    I'm hearing there will be a joint bid from Hayden Mullins and Julian Gray.

    This thread will have to see off the challenge of three or four other takeover threads if it is to make it to maturity. It's a tough life for a young new takeover thread and it will need determination, courage and more more than a little luck along the way.
    Join us next week on Springwatch or follow it's progress, live, on the webcams.

    It will turnout that Roland was in town to discuss a management buy-out by KM and Tony Bollocks.

    They are probably the only people thick enough to pay the £38m he wants.

    I heard Jacob Zuma was interested in buying us but since he's been told to payback the money for Nkandla the deals been put on hold. Probably a good near miss though if you think Douche is hard to get rid of JZ is damn near immovable

    But it would be a loan from RD with interest

    I've heard Bootsy Collins, Maceo Parker and Fred Wesley are fronting another consortium. They have no experience in managing a football club, but can you imagine them playing the Great Escape theme in the Covered End?

    the club are on record saying they will confirm their strategy for next season shortly after this season ends... why wait until the end of the season when you already know you are relegated? takeover.....

    My favourite is the 'heard this a few weeks ago' line when someone posts a covincing rumour. Made some early appearances already.

    You're right, I heard the same a while back.

    An illiterate new poster that writes single sentences and disappears for weeks is always a good contributor.

    When the strategy is to run around like headless chickens because you haven't got a clue what you're doing, it's probably best not to announce whilst there are still games to play and season tickets to sell.

    I'm going for page 38 on whichever thread the takeover is actually declared.

    Say what you will about 'Onest 'Arry, but he doesn't muck about with people who don't have large amounts of money and who are willing to prove it by putting some of it in Rosie's bank account.
