I've heard that the press are all over this thread, and have also been creating logins to push out bogus information. A bit tinfoil hat, but it's well within the realms of possibility.

where from?

The press will read this to gauge sentiment i'm sure but I really can't see why they'd post any bogus info, what purpose would that serve apart from a 'laugh', at some point the 'real' info will come out anyway. it's not really how they work. they simply report on what has been said, in this case there's some fairly basic speculation going on but not much else. journos hardly investigate at all bar trying to confirm what's been said in a press release with whoever they may have to corroborate that. they just don't have the time or resources to do it, they just have to get the copy out and that's that.

The problem here is there's fuck all happening and a lack of genuine info so everyone is adding 2 + 2 and getting eleventyfive.

Same place as all of the old posters. Believe it or not everyone on here was new once.

Whilst August and September have seen more new users than the preceding 3 months, its a myth that we have a sudden inrush of new posters.

More people registered every week during August and September last year than have done this year.

There’s a lack of info because there’s prob nothing to say, takeovers are a slow process, people just getting carried away on here with all these people who are suddenly ITK giving dates when it’s going to happen when they prob haven’t got a clue when it’s going to be done

I really hope im wrong but this takeover milarky might turm out to be a damp squibb!The sustainability comment by ross has put a right dampner on it for me..i was hoping for a push for promotion this season then a concerted effort to source and buy six or seven top end championship players for a push for promotion at the first go!I fear a don type stewardship of living within our means(yes i know its sensible)but i was hoping for a cash injection from the owners to kick start the club !I was hoping for a legacy project and not another addition to their portfolio!I hope someone has not beem feeding reiver dogshit!

Have you ever been on the pilgrimage, Grumpy, la? I fancy doing that, although I wonder if it's already become too commercialised?

I did it from Leon to Santiago in June 2012, and there were a fair few people about, (the film "The Way" had just come out) but nothing too bad. The ending in Santiago Cathedral was really moving, even though I'm an atheist. I'd say do it if you're a walker, its a good one, number 62 in walkopedia list of the world's great walks.

Especially if it's a " Henry". Just looking at them pisses me off. You can tell they're gagging for row.
