  • Is that right about Jim White texting RD asking if there has been a fresh, £30m bid, and RD coming back with "maybe but we get bids regularly"? I just see it on Facebook
  • Deffo fake news, don't fall for it people.

    Maybe Roland will sell just to stop Jim White texting him every time there’s a new rumor

    i'm assuming this is effectively a £37m bid as the directors haven't been approached to settle within the past year or Mr Smith would have no doubt advised us. Just that RD will only get £30m.
  • Also, we’ve lost our history updates so 

    1556 Thomas Cranmer was burnt at the stake for treason & heresy. 
  • Views now up to 5.3m


    It’ll be done once the number of views is equal to the asking price.

  • I was just thinking Jim White would be bound to have texted Roland about this. But if he replied JW hasn’t tweeted about it.

    Beat me to it. I wasn't expecting this latest news to escalate the number of pages so quickly.

    Not saying it is her but Newcastle not for sale.

    Maybe they have changed their plans and see us as a cheaper way to get a club.

    I have no idea who it is and have no inside info but she is a possibility.
  • Heard the deal involves moving to the Peninsula and a sponsorship from Pot Noodles and w@nking in to socks.

    Cheaper than Newcastle for sure, even with significant investment. And it's South London - what's not to like?

    It'll end on a page ending in 66 I tell thee, Battle of Hastings, Great Fire of London, England World Cup Winners, The Rat frees us from his clutches and there's a 66 only 10 pages away  :o

    It would also look amazing if they got us into the prem, probably moreso than getting Newcastle into Europe... And I'd hazard a guess at less expensive

    Does she have previous links to top flight football  
  • Oh no. I am not knocking you Henry. How do we not know if ir was Murray putting the plant there?  or one of the bidders under a disguise? No-one knows. It is too co-incidental to come up Saturday. especially with what has come out with Roly's mouth and LDT this past week. For all we know this could be the British Bid? 
  • And a London club

    So the Aussies are going ‘public’ at last @JamesSeed ?
    Well spotted! I’m sure there must be at least one ex-banker on the consortium. 
    If it is them I might be persuaded to retract yesterday's comment regarding them not being credible bidders! :)
