  • The sun, Mirror and Mail all with same story.

    Murray saying he’s more confident than ever

    kenyon spotted at a couple of games

    hmmm



  • I've no idea whether the takeover rumours are different this time than before BUT if it is to happen then now is an obvious times to do it, before the transfer window.

    Being very optimistic, new owners could target a promotion campaign, more realistically they'd want to ensure we stay in this division, as it would be a disaster for any new owner if we went back down again by a couple of points because the squad wasn't quite strong enough. 
  • Fingers crossed and all that, but are these another lot who underestimate what a stubborn old c*** RD is, and expect him to cave in to an offer, coz I can't see anyone forking out anywhere near the reported £60m

    Hope to be proved wrong though
  • Perhaps steadily dropping down the table may concentrate RD's mind this time ?

    Looks similar, but Dagrosa looks younger in the various pics on google.
    Could be though.
    hope so

    Let’s face it. The FF in its current format is a piss take. That’s no criticism of those hardy souls who attend in good faith as our representatives. I do wish that a few teacups are thrown every now and again though.
    We go around and around with this.

    De Turck got called incompetent to his face, along with Meire and Duchatelet, the Dodger guy goes in and had a right go, regular attendees ask the difficult questions but come the next meeting and it's a "piss take" again.

    The meetings are open to anyone.  You can put your name forward, they actively asked people to so, no one did.  You go, you throw the tea cups @ShootersHillGuru

    Yet again, it is not the fans or the fans forum that are the problem. They are not the enemy or to blame.  

    The FF is far from perfect but it remains one of, if not the ONLY place that fans can directly question the regime and speak truth to power.

    Do the club take the piss with the late minutes?  Yes, they do. The solution to that is simple and it's been done. Don't wait for the club and put out your own minutes when you go along in December.
    I responded to the clubs request/invitation to apply to attend the last meeting & received no reply from the club.
    Ditto

    @Rufus is a dogs name  try tom.rubashow@cafc.co.uk instead.  It worked for Clive
  • This is pretty speculative which is why I haven't published it elsewhere or earlier, but there is solid information there were interested parties in block C at the Preston game. These guys are the ones who stand out in that area. If someone knows who they are that could maybe rule them out?
    No scarves, the club shop ain't falling for that one again
    There have been so many potential owners buying scarves, the shop ran out
  • Not a bad club back in its day
  • Wheres redhenry when you need him
