  • No because I was told in the same conversation that a fee was agreed the issue was upto that point the only delay and that’s what I posted I believe it was along the lines of

    “As of 645pm tonight ( a few days back) the only hold up was the aussies had yet to prove funds to complete “

    I also said they may well have the funds or be able to secure them but they had not at that point

    Then RD said the same and James posted that two investors had still to sign off

    Without that sign off the EFL were not the delay it was at cafc end

    Ok, but now we’ve established its with the EFL, so funds must be in place.
  • I thought it was said on here that it was at EFL weeks a go

    I would of presumed it was true back then and awaiting ratification once all the ticks were in the boxes our end

    It may well have been the EFL that wanted the proof and it was them waiting who knows

    Might be wrong but don’t think it was confirmed it was with EFL no more than ten days ago and that it would only be completed once the Sunderland takeover had gone through, believe that went through last week so they’ve only spent a few days looking at our takeover so far
  • Being a bank holiday as well, they probably finished on Thursday, watched all the play-offs at Wembley and start looking again later this week, they are in no hurry

    Good point!
  • The person who has told me there are issues with the funds is the the self same person who ROT doorstepped on the weekend

    All be it second hand from someone working with him and his son

    Now I don’t see why it benefits him to lie about there being an issue with funding and he is the only one who would truly know

    Jeez, do you really believe anything that comes out of that old scrouts mouth? Not so much ITK as IKN.
  • Well let’s hope the end is nigh and there’s no more fucking around and we will be rid of him once and for all

    This, this and more this. Sooner the better.

    I would be thrilled if your source is RD NLA, I believe the man is an idiot and personally wouldnt believe a word that comes out of him.

    I think the end is nigh and once he has gone we can all just move on and get the club moving again.

    There have been many false dawns, I have fallen for 2/3 of them but this time I believe he will be gone within a week or two.

    I'd still be a lot lot happier if we heard from someone official (not someone from CL or a journalist who reads CL) that the takeover has indeed gone forward to the EFL.

    So would I but Duchatelet doesn't care what we think or know, we don't matter, and there's no one else at the club with the authority to say anything.
  • Cant see it being announced until Muir is back in town. As long as it happens then I’ll be fine with that.

    We may all disagree with his running of our club but he is clearly not an idiot. He’s ridiculously rich so clearly has something about him.



    People say the same about Trump

    When I was in China last year I met a coach who told me all about the DJ sacking and KR suckling up to RD like a piglet


    He does stuff for a British club freelance and the Belgian fa he was working for the two shit chalets so I have been asking him to find out what he can and he has been absolutely bank on the money thus far he is now back freelancing at a football school in China for a prem club

    He was asking RD direct or his son

    So we are not at EFL sign off stage, the fee had been agreed (or acknowledged) prior to the play-offs and is still at the same level in L1. The problem with funding could be raising the cash or be willing to part with an inflated sum.

    I thought that there was an old saying along the lines of ' A fool and his money' and he certainly fits the bill over the last four years allowing Nightmeire to pour it down the drain whilst spectacularly degrading our club in the process :angry: .

    I've never flagged anyone before, but you came close there.....

    OTT is a description of his tackling style.
    Kevin Muscat made the shocking OTT tackle on Matthew Holmes 20 years ago which Graham Poll missed ! Let's hope that his successful tenure as a manager in Australia doesn't put him in the frame for any jobs which may be available in league 1.

    I’ve said it a good few times now......as far as I can tell the guy is something of a sociopath, I have no idea if there are different levels of this affliction?
    It needs someone else, who really understands the subject of sociopathy, to confirm my suspicions but until someone who is familiar with the trait and can explain to me otherwise I believe I may well be right.
    Any takers?
