    I'd rather Ruby Murray than Richard Murray was part of the takeover.

    Separately, De Turck is telling bidders that they need to be “creative” about payments for future success to meet Duchatelet’s valuation. What that means to me is that Duchatelet is still trying to get buyers to pay for his mistakes with the extra value they create from their own investment, which is the roadblock.
    Payments for future success???
    The mind boggles that the old git expects payments for future success when he had absolutely ZERO ambition for success himself............................ wanker!! (Sorry I don't usually resort to that ............ but OMG we really have no hope whilst he continues to believe his own bullsh!t)

    I bought a car for £10k. Unfortunately I don't know how to drive and keep crashing it. I will sell it to you for £35k plus a further £100k once you've repaired it.

    There’s a fella on Twitter who DMs me from time to time with info. He seems to have a contact inside the club, as his info seems to have some relation to what’s going on. 

    Anyway, he’s just messaged me to say there may be new investors. They are, he says, Indian, and are involved in the cricket world. 
    I have absolutely no idea if there is any truth in this whatsoever unfortunately, so don’t shoot the messenger.

    Let’s hope it’s not another googly. 
    Hes getting info from someone within the club? Howzat?

    I think RD would have asked for £50k.

    We have to assume that with no news coming now from anyone that was ITK, then everything has either fallen through, or everyone has walked away, or RD has asked to much and all deal(s) are off the table. I think we must be resigned to having RD here for a very long foreseeable future, and that going to meet LVT for anymore procrastination's is completely pointless. 
    The club told a reporter on Monday that it was still talking to three separate parties - nothing new there and probably not worth publishing but that’s their position.

    Has anyone let Jim White know about this valuation?

    Never heard of omen - I prefer jalfrezi or a really hot phall.

    Good point oohaah. 

    Do you reckon he wants a cut of the six shillings eleven pennies and three farthings (6/11 3/4) CAFC got in 1947 for the cup win?

    So your mate GM told you some info over beers and you put it all over here, then a bloke DM’s you and you put it all up on here.  Something tells me you are not great at keeping secrets 😀

    I have no idea who he (the Twitter) fella is, and GM said it was fine to share, as there were no financial details.
