As regular as clockwork. Around Christmas time we hear that a takeover is imminent ( pre transfer window). Around this time of year we hear that a takeover is imminent (season ticket sales). Every sodding season.

That’s because the start of the transfer windows are the optimum time to buy a club, not because it makes any difference to the revenues or operations of the business.

Am I being too cynical by suggesting that it is also a great excuse for Roland not to spend in the window ?
Is there a long way before the deal is done?
Haven't seen any mention of timescales so would be interested to know from those with better knowledge of these things, how long it takes when a bidder has exclusivity.
Hello @Valley11 - seeing as you asked this question in April 2017, I feel qualified to say that, yes, there probably was a long way to go.

Do people genuinely and seriously buy into this fiction that this LDV Vans fella regurgitates on a monthly basis? The reason why he keeps peddling this utter tripe is because he reads this forum and knows that people get really excited about the fairly tales and yarns he spins! It’s the same rubbish that we’ve been hearing time and time and time again, and yet people pitch up to these masquerades of a meeting and treat LDV Vans like he’s the love child of the despicable Jim White! It’s beyond any sense of normality and comprehension that he’s even given the time of day! We’ve had this bull for over 12 months now; starting with the complete farce that was the Australian ‘bid’, through to fictitious British bidders, bankers, and now another overseas interested party! Laugh, I nearly went to Ethiopia! You’ll forgive me for being aghast at this latest tripe, but experience has proven that LDV Vans is taking us all for a ride under the behest of our tyrant of an owner! Always been a game, always will be a game to these clowns. I’ve said it time and time again, it’s Duchatelet ‘payback’, and the last year or so has proved that!!!
Was anything mentioned about the £30m bid from a 'former banker'?
Crock of shit comments above
Only asked because of the recent link to Nicola Cortese which would tie in with some of the Bidder 5 elements of LDTs response. It should have been the first question anybody asked
Seems slightly less lazy than the Sky / BT Sport reports. Obviously tilted more toward the Aussies but has at least got details in there, so maybe more informed by someone in the bid?

Just saying.
bid 2 don’t exist
bid 3 don’t exist

Must be others, none of the above looks a great option tbh
But we are not there yet.
