            Deary me James Seed.
It's almost like you have a penalty to win the game and turn round and score an own goal instead.
Not once, but twice in a matter of days.14 -

That is what I do not get.The Red Robin said:I find it astounding anyone in the Aussie consortium believed they'd get away with that if true / or didn't realise that rule existed.
If they thought they would get away with it, or didn't have the nouse (or seek advice) as to what the EFL fit and proper tests involved then I'm not sure they are any better than the chuckle brothers.
I believe neither is the case - it might be that the two investors had second thoughts but I cannot believe it was for having a significant interest in another English club.
It would appear that it's gone from the EFL are satisfied with the applicants of the fit and proper person test, with 'two qualifications', to the EFL have rejected two people from the consortium because they are linked with other Clubs.
Love to know who actually made that link and if they have, where did they get it from.
There's more smoke and mirrors in this takeover than a Paul McKenna show.

            Guys, this is playground stuff. My advice would be, just don't talk to each other(however many there are squabbling). Not everyone gets on with everyone. We support the same team, let's just draw a line and stop this bickering.
Please for the 99.9% of other people on this forum.14 -

You said a little more than that, Seed. That's enough pms.JamesSeed said:
Oh dear. 23 abuse flags. Just saying.Redskin said:
Ooooh, a flag and two nasty pms. Back in the game, James, or whatever the fuck your real name is.Redskin said:
Because you like the attention.JamesSeed said:
Why do I, or anyone else for that matter bother.Arsenetatters said:

If I didn't make silly replies where would I be.Arsenetatters said:
@JamesSeed with all due respect, if you don't want people to try and wind you up then don't make silly replies.JamesSeed said:
We can tell.WhenIwasLittleBoy said:
I haven't posted on here for weeks. Calm down dear.JamesSeed said:
Well you keep replying to me or using @jamesseed with hostile comments about the Aussies. It's just a bit obvious.WhenIwasLittleBoy said:
What are you on about targeting you ??JamesSeed said:
Did they really?WhenIwasLittleBoy said:
They decided to up an offer to outbid the Arabs when they didn’t have finances in place? Secondly going to a match wearing scarfs and sitting in the directors box, Michael Knighton only topped that.JamesSeed said:
Is this the 5 minute argument, or the full half hour?WhenIwasLittleBoy said:All well and good blaming RD. The facts are the Aussies got into a bidding war and didn't have the funds. Laughable
I don't think anyone here is going to fall for that ;-)
You're trying to get a response on here. It's not worth it. We're over the argument phase.
Why are you targetting me for the wind up btw?

            This back and forth is very tedious and has gone on for too long. Please think twice (thrice even) before engaging. There's no way to win an "internet war", so don't bother trying. In the end, we all lose.
We try to edit without breaking the general flow in the hopes that the community benefits from a bit of self-regulating. On balance, we get it right more often than not. But from now on, we'll be deleting anything on this thread approaching sniping and bullying. We've gotten to the point in this sorry situation (on here and within the context of the wider club troubles) where this is necessary.74 - 
            
we were told that RD had given the Aussies a deadline of the end of this month. Assuming it needs to be done before the weekend then we have had 3 days without anything happening & 2 days left.Bolderhumphreyreid said:

            Had a dream this was announced today and woke up part way through the night unable to get back to sleep. If it's not otos by the end of play today I'll be very disappointed in my precognition abilities.0

So unless anyone can show they have an inside track to the EFL, or can quote someone who clearly has that link, we can declare the "two Aussie investors barred by EFL test" story to be entirely without foundation. Good.Addickted said:
