Haven’t read the thread for a few pages, so apologies if this is already common knowledge, but sounds like Muir is in with the Americans, and there may well be a meeting planned in the US, as the Sun has claimed. A deal is supposed to be ‘close’. Whether anything actually happens is another matter of course. Been here before ;-)
I'll take the most miniscule spot of light at the end of this never ending tunnel, James, so it's thanks from Fanny.
With the January window fast approaching, surely it would be a good time for new owners to come in ?
( Hmmm. VOTV late......Could AB be waiting on the confirmation of some imminent news? :-) )
I've no idea whether the takeover rumours are different this time than before BUT if it is to happen then now is an obvious times to do it, before the transfer window.
Being very optimistic, new owners could target a promotion campaign, more realistically they'd want to ensure we stay in this division, as it would be a disaster for any new owner if we went back down again by a couple of points because the squad wasn't quite strong enough.
Fingers crossed and all that, but are these another lot who underestimate what a stubborn old c*** RD is, and expect him to cave in to an offer, coz I can't see anyone forking out anywhere near the reported £60m
This is pretty speculative which is why I haven't published it elsewhere or earlier, but there is solid information there were interested parties in block C at the Preston game. These guys are the ones who stand out in that area. If someone knows who they are that could maybe rule them out?
No scarves, the club shop ain't falling for that one again
Let’s face it. The FF in its current format is a piss take. That’s no criticism of those hardy souls who attend in good faith as our representatives. I do wish that a few teacups are thrown every now and again though.
We go around and around with this.
De Turck got called incompetent to his face, along with Meire and Duchatelet, the Dodger guy goes in and had a right go, regular attendees ask the difficult questions but come the next meeting and it's a "piss take" again.
The meetings are open to anyone. You can put your name forward, they actively asked people to so, no one did. You go, you throw the tea cups @ShootersHillGuru
Yet again, it is not the fans or the fans forum that are the problem. They are not the enemy or to blame.
The FF is far from perfect but it remains one of, if not the ONLY place that fans can directly question the regime and speak truth to power.
Do the club take the piss with the late minutes? Yes, they do. The solution to that is simple and it's been done. Don't wait for the club and put out your own minutes when you go along in December.
I responded to the clubs request/invitation to apply to attend the last meeting & received no reply from the club.

There have been so many potential owners buying scarves, the shop ran out

Murray saying he’s more confident than ever
kenyon spotted at a couple of games
hmmm

Hope to be proved wrong though
We have had plenty of potential new owners and keen ones at that but it always falls down at the last minute when dealing with Roland.
I wonder what, or whom the problem could be?
Could be though.
hope so
