    Hope it’s not at all offensive to say ‘they didn’t fit in’ wish I’d phrased it differently now, but with Roland wanting to sell on my mind and that regions association with owning football clubs it’s the first thing my mind went to. 
    What you did wrong was not taking a photograph so we could bump up the page count even further over who they were. : -)

    Although a word of warning.

    There was a lot of speculation previously, even before this thread, about this "middle eastern looking" person being spotted in the directors box.




    Ron Manager to buy the club.

    I saw a woman walking her dog in the park this morning.
    It's happening folks!

    Did the dog squat down and poop out a Ro-lund?

    Wasn't she the go-between for the proposed sale of Newcastle?
    Think she would have been the Owner
    She would have been the chair and public face, I don't think she was the money.

    ?

    Amanda Staveley has links in Abu Dhabi

    I guess Henry is hinting she's the woman mentioned with the Middle Eastern guests
    If Staveley was there on Saturday, that's pretty significant, with her contacts and reputation

    As long as it's not Zabeel again...
    Of course it could be Henry on a wind up
    No wind up just wild speculation.

    Getting closer and closer to 2019. Only @Uboat and I have realised that @happyvalley will have to rely on future events at that point.
    It was actually Amanda Holden
    Amanda Holden would ensure we can attract a few more players to The Valley.

    As previously mentioned I’ve had Amanda Staveley in my cab a few times and have quizzed her about her football links and suggested cafc as a much better value alternative to Newcastle. 
    If she is now involved I’ll happily take some credit 😊

    @Airman Brown is there more to the link to be people in front of me or am I now the basis of our takeover hopes? 
    Don’t panic. I am categorically certain that those people were put there by De Turck, not basing it on sightings - useful though they were.

    Did you ever find out who the father was?
    Was that supposed to be an attempt at humour? If so it might be best to keep your jokes to yourself. If it wasn’t a joke perhaps you could explain why you wrote such an insulting sentence.

    I have obviously upset you and that certainly was not my intention and if I have offended you I apologise.

    I don’t believe that this type of banter of deliberately misunderstanding or twisting things round is uncommon on this site and is an aspect I thoroughly enjoy. I hope that after a bit of reflection you will accept that this was all it was.
    It was such a textbook CL joke that part of me wonders if Charltonkeston is whooshing you. I hope so, because if not he must be a serious fun-sponge to be around.

    Acworth will soon claim that he sent her an email 4 years ago and take the credit for it anyway.

    Fair enough, no need for apologies.

    Not the sort of thing I would say, (sensitive soul that I am), but I guess I queued myself up for that one.

    At last a new rumour to breathe some life into this ageing yet classical thread.


    Oh Mandy Staveley
    you came and you gave without  your 10%
    but we sent you away.
    Oh, Mandy well,
    the middle East guys are loaded and it stopped us from shaking,
    and we need you back today. Oh, Mandy!
