Callumcafc

Maybe they've come together to form one consortium? Or is that a dream?

If it happened to be Usmanov I would just like to point out I was the first (I think) to randomly guess the name of a super wealthy fella and come up with him be absolutely ITK about this guy.

Can’t remember what page on this mega thread now though..!

Well I can’t remember you mentioning him.
You’re simply going to have to look through the thread to prove it......off you go then!

If every comment (25,300 at the moment) was printed on an A4 sheet of paper and they were laid in a line it would be 4.6 miles long...

It has been said that Scarfy is not made of polyester nylon like normal scarfs but is instead made from the finest threads of Chartlon Life. The takeover thread will be in the blend.

That could deal with one hell of a dump.

There's no way you could print one of Grapevine's posts on a sheet of A4, even if you used both sides.

I could take a few weeks more of this stuff.

It’s the Bristol Rovers chairman

If so, that’s confusing as I thought he was linked to the other bid.. middle-eastern links etc

That’s what I understand. Keith Harris, however, has been linked with the Aussies.

Have you contacts at the EFL said anything @Airman Brown ?

Not heard anything.

JamesSeed

I've asked, but have heard nothing back as yet

Chizz

I haven't asked. I'll let you know if I get a response.

Solidgone

I’ve asked my budgie but still waiting for it to tweet back.

stonemuse

I asked, got an answer, but ain’t telling you lot what it was ... nor who it was from.

AFKABartram

I’ve asked. I’ve been told my call is important and I’ve been placed in a queue. An operator will be with me shortly

Callumcafc

I asked the club but they said they sent their response in the post and told me the Royal Mail lost it.

DOUCHER

hopeful of having a takeover news bulletin i can share tomorrow and from what i can gather, it will be a positive one

You'd have to stand 1,686 double decker buses on top of each other to reach up to to 4.6 miles in the sky.

Yeah but what if there’s a corner?

So if what @Addickted says is correct, are we at the stage where, using a house buying analogy, we are about ready to exchange contracts?

Because I have a horrible feeling that Roland is going to change his mind and take the fridge freezer with him after all.

Well he can't take the boiler because we ain't got one!

April 2017, original post. 14 months on, could the OP have got the scoop right?

JamesSeed

Received a message from my contact.

I'm keeping it secret, even though it details the exact time and date of the sale, the name of the new manager, a list of the players they're signing, and details about the new online fans forum they're setting up, where promotes are given mainly for excellent fish puns. Oh, and there's also a link to a map for some reason.

i do hope you're right @DOUCHER !!

after some of the abuse you've received I'd imagine you'd quite rightly feel very pleased with yourself

Don’t tell me they’re going to have a press conference when Muir returns?
