    The way I read it was that the Americans would not be involved in the day to day running, that would be the Aussies! Similar to cash and slater/Jimenez. Am I wrong?

    As an American, I can say that no American who has earned their money would ever invest in something that chronically loses money and THEN hand it over to some Australians to run. When Americans invest, if it is not making money then they will control the running of it until it does. To me this is ultimate proof the rumours are nonsense.
    As an Englishman I can say that that is a load of old bollocks. To me this is ultimate proof that you talking nonsense.

    See, we can all do that .....
    That's what he does best, tbf.

    I wonder what time the news of tonight’s meeting will filter out?

    What meeting?
    It’s getting heated
    This is excellent, but why no random Americans? May I suggest Jennifer Aniston?

    Maybe this American didn't earn his money. Maybe he won it, inherited it, or stole it, like most rich Americans.

  • I said the following on page 33, twenty one months ago..

    I worry Roland is turning potential buyers off by having some stupid clause or kicker or he wants to keep the stadium, or some other low-class crap that he would not be above pulling.

    And on page 37, twenty months ago


    Which is why I am not for the Aussie takeover. If they are struggling to raise the money to buy the club, then they sure don't have the cash to get us promoted.

    All this time later, I still think the same.
  • If he still owns us come the summer best we prepare for most of the out of contract players to walk,unless of course we somehow gain promotion

    So instead of entering the draw & for only one person winning the chance to have a go at the cross bar challenge,next season a few could win a place on the bench or even get a start if they remember to bring there boots...it's the Roland way...!!!

  • Is it worth going to bed tonight?
  • Has Tuesday been cancelled this week now.
    If it has, I better put the bins out.
  • That’s weird, I’ve already put the bins out.
    Do we not all have the same binmen?
    There’s three for my road, one drives the van and the other two collect the bins. One is taller than the other one but I don’t know how tall the third one is as he’s usually seated whilst driving isn’t he?

    I am, but only when the takeover happens.

    I have a feeling that it may be being held back until we actually reach page 1905. Or even worse, 1947. Purely for the dramatic effect.

    Originally said this on page 1010. Bit annoying that we weren't formed / didn't win the FA Cup towards the end of the Middle Ages really....
  • Is the money unlocked yet?

  • There there everyone, hush now, Daddy’s going to sing you all to sleep and when you all wake in the morning, you’ll realise it’s just been a terrible dream, that’s all.

    Rock a bye CL on the tree top.

    Your not my real daddy anyway

    Holy feck! I checked in yesterday and had around 200 posts to get through... this morning it’s 1100!! I’m guessing nothings happened.

    I can confirm this is correct but before you ask I can not reveal my source

    You say that like it's a bad thing.

    All posts are equal.
