I reckon we'll easy make it to page 950 once the statements released and from then on it's down hill all the way for another 50 pages, then it's the magic 1000 and a done deal !!!
I have been avoiding this thread over the past weeks mainly because the endless speculation does get a little crazy and on top of that it is clear that nobody on this site really knows what is going on. For a while I have been pondering why this hasn't happened yet and my own personal opinion (not speculation just opinion) is that RD has more or less lost interest in CAFC and so has no urgency to sell, he will do it in his own time and hold out for what he wants, if he doesn't get it he will run the club on a shoestring. What is clear is that if this buyout doesn't happen sharpish we are in for an extremely rocky new season, with a diminished playing staff lacking the necessary quality or experience.
I have thought all along that RD has no real interest in the health of our club, he sees it as an asset and nothing else and will find ways to redeem his outlay whatever that takes. Lets hope the current "speculation" is more that just that because right now it al looks rather bleak.
If the Aussies can't get this done and / or can't agree a price with Roland is it possible we could still a situation where Roland ends up owning The Valley and / or Sparrows Lane? Temporarily at least.

Not unless he pays the ex-directors or they agree.
Too much analysis is being undertaken around the potential statement.
that fact that it appears to be occurring is a positive thing. people were saying yesterday that the Aussies had walked away. If they are issuing statements in partnership with the club, that would strongly suggest in advance that is not the case.
People have unrealistic expectations if they expect it to be anything other than vanilla.
I was hoping for mint choc chip tbf., strachetri and salted caramel would be good too.
AND A FUCKING STATEMENT THAT GIVES US SOME HOPE THE SENILE OLD FOOL IS GOING TO BW GONE SOON AND WE ARENT GOING TO BE LEFT WITH FUCK ALL.
That’d be nice.
Are you talking about me [senile old fool] as I’m all confused?
If the Aussies timeline for a takeover is reflected by the time it takes them to put out a simple statement, we will still be owned by the Belgian cretin next pre-season.
I don't believe it's Ashley for a second, but it would explain the inexplicable delays on our takeover if it was somebody struggling to conclude a deal that must be done first.

Ashley was staying at the Cannaught last week as the Mandarin Oriental wasn't available.
Just saying.
Like most of this thread.
