Takeover Rumours

That's good at least. So it seems the takeover is happening, but also seems like Donald isn't allowed to say anything at present. That suggests to me that they're still dealing with a fairly big item. Doesn't seem to be the manager if the RR and ALS tweets from a day or so ago were drip fed to them so unsure what else it could be. As absolute speculation, do you reckon Donald and Methven's future involvement could still be up for discussion or would that likely have been signed off on by this stage?

I'm not sure if it's of any relevance at all, but on

it say's "Next statement date 13 September 2019". I'm not even sure what that means but perhaps it's something they need/want to wait for?

Just been pushing people for something to post that would indicate progress.

The following, from someone well connected, is typical of the responses.

Sorry but this is the best I can do.

“There definitely seems to be something going on that’s connected with the takeover as the whole club is so bloody quiet and non commital.
It’s like waiting for an explosion that you know is coming and can’t stop, to go off!"

So in your opinion nothing has changed, its a matter of when and not if?

They’re annual statements on the structure of a company - shareholding’s that sort of thing.

In a nutshell this is my understanding but, for the inevitabilty of my post being dragged up by Jardine in 20 years time, let's say it's all guesswork.

Donald, Methven and the new lads are all fine together and want a long term relationship to create a legacy in around the club.

Despite what ALS/RR/Whoever say, they're not happy with Ross.

The announcement is only being delayed by things outside of the agreed takeover.

I've already had to bow down and apologise once so that's all I can post but that hopefully gives you a clue.

I honestly wish I'd just enjoyed this thread from the outside and never posted.

This has cost me quite a lot of time, effort and lost income not to mention the pressure it's put me under ...

... at a time when I'd actually welcome a ban the buggers are nowhere to be seen.

Some fucker report me PLEASE :lol:

I don't think posting cryptic messages with scant detail about what may or may not be happening is very helpful, regardless of accuracy. Infact, I'd argue, regardless of intentions, that claiming to be in ITK is an excercise in satisfying the ego of the poster. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Regardless, I've noticed one standout thing from reading this thread: people don't half talk shit!
