Takeover Rumours

Status
Not open for further replies.

Quick update. Poached eggs on avocado and feta sourdough toast underway.
Kettle’s on.
New sous chef looking forward to the start of a new era but hasn’t yet signed his contract cos he is sleeping over at his new lass’s in Whitburn till next Tuesday which may delay progress.
Concerns over his preference for Apple goods.
Bruce out

Genuinely stopped looking for takeover info from Riv now. I'm more concerned about this sous chef.
 
Like a bunch of kids waiting for Christmas on here ... Chill man a few more days of waiting won’t hurt

I'm as bad as anyone else mate, I refused to believe it when I was told it would be midweek until I got a WhatsApp, from the fella, with a smiley saying 'give it up man' :lol:
 
Nobody knows .. could be end of next week now apparently , nobody knows when and what impact it will have
are ALS better placed for info than BBC/Pryde?
If the Dell boys have flown over, why? EFL? announcement? other? they're not here?

Best spend the next 4 days finding a job then so you're all relaxed for the excitement ;)
 
Cheers mate, very kind.

I'll be glad to have 'a day off' :lol:

I've woke up to more messages from people trying to help with info.

If there's anything concrete I'll post it, otherwise people will have to rely on the local media ;)
Good luck today.
 
Anyone else starting to think Reiv hasn't actually told us anything?

If I hadn't read a single one of his posts I'd still know as much as people that had. In fact I'm sure it was the media that broke it not happening until next week before Reiv anyway.

:lol: :lol:

Can’t beat a bit of self mental torture :lol: I’ve been waiting for something else for 2 weeks and know this too well, finally happens for me tomorrow though .. then roll on the takeover news;)
 
I'm still hoping mate but the fella close to the action has said midweek.

He reads this forum but doesn't post, he's loving watching me jumping through hoops :evil:
Thing I don't understand is if there's still a lot of toing and froing and haggling etc, how anyone can put a timescale on anything really.
 
I get what your saying about his hamstring meaning he would never be the same and would never be back to what he was recovey wise. But he also seemed to not give a shit aswell.

To come out and say he couldn't wait to retire. Not like he was hanging on for his pension. Could have called it a day at any time.
I don’t disagree m8 but clubs were still willing to shell out on him. He offered to nullify his contract at stoke but they were keen to retain him.

Maybe the commercial side was too tempting I.e. shirt sales, having a big name player, who could still score more than a lot of other strikers.
