    Yep. You wouldn't got from trying to purchasing Newcastle with a lot of potential to a crap div 1 side... losing money. 
    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.
    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

    Amanda Staveley??? 
    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! :)

    Brokered the Man City takeover

    Can we cut out the history lessons (and other blind alleys) and ’toe the line’ by sticking to the takeover please?
    This isn’t the plaice for that sort of nonsense.

  • Well if the bid is legit and why wouldn’t it be. Due diligence has been completed so whoever the mystery person is they are not that new to the table. It would be good to know if the rumour of a £35 million bid had been rejected several weeks ago is true. That point seems crucial to any possible success of this bid. Of course the structure of either bid might have a say.

    Why go to all the bother?

    Murray or Roland can just put a story on the OS or through the FF minutes.

    The Standard might be a crap paper but it has been pretty supportive of the protests in recent months so it's hardly a good place for the regime to leak a story.

    And how does it being public knowledge that an offer of £30m has been made help Roland?  Why would he depress the price like that?

    It doesn't add up

    Maybe the regime has pretended to be this banker, spoken to the journo and convinced them that they are real but Roland can't even fake some graffiti without making obvious gaffs like "Charlton rule OK" or putting the circumflex on "Duchaletet" so how could he manage that?

    Thing is we play a game once a week, sometimes twice. Any new story will be close to a game, whenever it came out. 

    And is Roland bother if we protest at a game?   He use it as another excuse for driving away buyers.  He WANTS more protests.

    That's what the bitesize thread was for - whatever happened to that?

    You're right about the No Promote though.

  • What's our Belgian journo mate up to nowadays?  Can someone make contact and convince him to write about this supposed £30 mill takeover in the Belgium press?  That would ramp up the pressure even more on Roly Poly.

  • Refuse to believe it.

    Rolands on the wind up again.
    2% of his time my arse. He’s been on a crusade from the moment he pitched up.

    wont get fooled again.
  • It’s imminent!
  • Could this be a ploy by the regime to stop any protests at Saturday's match?

    *sorry if this has been mentioned before but I cannot be bothered to wade through page after page
