I wasn't sure whether to post this as I'd hoped people were switched on enough to work it out.

Ask yourselves whether they'd be aware of the massive amount of money Short lost.

Ask yourselves if they have a few quid.

Ask yourselves if they'd use some of that money to engage an experienced retired English manager to advise them, on the quiet, before, during and after the takeover.

Come on people, wake up ...

... or else I'll have to resort to a video clip using f***ing glove puppets to represent the various characters :lol:

Pretty sure someone posted the other day that they weren’t and when they visited the SOL they didnt really understand football rules in general.

Could be wrong obviously, Just strange that they would make an assumption on Ross and the background team before even setting foot inside the club to see it for themselves. Surely they would take advice from SD already in, Who hasn’t looked to replace him either.

FWIW i’m not a Ross fan, the football is turgid more often than its good.

It was me marra who posted that about them asking questions about positions on the pitch at Wimbledon game. One of them admitted they know nothing about football. Into American football.

He's not gonna manage in league one and I imagine they his salary requirements would be an issue given our budget limitations, it doesn't matter how rich the prospective owners are, you can't just spend spend spend

Unless they start the whole shell company crack and pay him through some offshore lark, I guess

I joined about 4 year ago because the club I’m in put the training and all results on there but was a right eye opener how sad it is and controls some people’s lives , the ones in their 40s seem to be the worst rather than young uns

OK, this is all I've been told and all I can say so won't be taking questions.

The fella I've just left is a multi-millionaire art dealer who had lunch with Fuhrman in New York a month back. He also knows Phelan personally but not Dell. Apparently Fuhrman's 1.2 billion collection cost him a total of £2 million ... smart man.

I was shown a WhatsApp message from my fella congratulating Fuhrman on his purchase of the club and a thank you response. There are a handful of minor issues to resolve, before it can be announced, but absolutely NOTHING that can affect the deal.

So, that's it, done.

Nothing regarding the plans, of which I was told, will be announced until the PR stuff starts. Believe me though, it's mind blowing and they will be throwing money at it despite what people are speculating.

They're not happy with Ross and the staff but believe the team should be promoted.

Fuhrman has said he'll be going to games.

Now, my lunch has arrived and Mrs Reiver is giving me daggers.
