Takeover News/Rumours

[The Cabbage]

WTF are you on about, personally Jack is a good guy, BUT WAY WAY out of his depth here. look at him at the end of both Wembley games

Ross was out of his depth here but nowhere near as badly as Donald and his key cronies. Now there’s an example of startling incompetence.

And those blokes appointed Ross

 

[Ashley In!!]

And those blokes appointed Ross

And Parkinson.
But not McInnes.

And that isn’t even in their top three worst football decisions.

 

[Red and white TID]

Its like a wind up merchant off here but using his real name


Aye thats my thought mind. Otherwise he's just making himself look a tit

My opinion also, he’s a Charlie and Stewy plant to keep everyone onside with the bullshit fakeover theory.

All smelly imo

 

[Cito]

For a Chancer Ross is doing ok in Scotland

 

[Billy Batts]

not as big as a chancer that your two mates Donald and Methven who can do no wrong in your eyes and please tell us is Nixon still Nick Barnes source and tell us when that loan was paid back again

It's clear Bob won't have a bad word said against Stuart and Charlie

 

[Ashley In!!]

i met Bain 3 or 4 times very convincing, even fooled Short.

This just proves how easily taken in you are. Not for the first time, or as its turned out, not for the last time either. What sad is that for a supposed massive lads fan you still can't see when you're being taken for a fool.

 

[JL1985]

I’m sick to death of this thread but feel obliged to check it each day to see if anything is happening.

So according to Bob so far

There is no takeover/There might be a takeover depending on what people view as a takeover
It isn't the Russian/It is the Russian
Furhman isn't involved/Furhman cancelled a meeting and therefore is involved.
Donald has paid back FPP/Donald hasn't paid back FPP

Those all look like contradictions to me.

We also have Nixon is Barnes source, when asked directly Nixon denied this.
Nixon writes for the chronicle, when shown this was wrong he doubled down, Nixon himself then said he doesn't write for the chronicle.

And he wonders why people don't believe him.

 

[Papa Smurf]

Totally agree the last thing he was, was a chancer, a real honest nice guy who tried to do his best for us, didn’t get everything right but no chancer.

Donald didn’t have the balls to sack himself as I remember got a henchman to do that on the day of a game, oh as I remember it was on the same day, in fact 3 hours after, news came out that FPP weren’t buying the club ( hide bad news, nice touch again), then they didn’t even give him JR the chance to tell his little lad, Coming out of school as promised to him after he was sacked, so I personally think there is only one chancer to be honest and it ain’t JR !!!!!!

All true except the bit about JR telling his lad, he doesn’t have a lad, he’s got 2 daughters. The worst thing wasn’t even the fact SD got somebody else to do his dirty work in sacking Jack, he ignored all of Jack’s calls to him afterwards, the spineless little fat man!

 

[Crayola-Kid]

I know what a takeover is, i also know what an agreed increase in investment is, and i also have a good idea what will happen at the club.
But posting it on here will cause an eruption of posts lasting weeks F that i will keep my mouth shut.
I will also let Rubberface, the ghost of Arca, Law topper, Confucius, etc and mainly on 606 Magnus the mag, keep spouting off. NO PM's or any other posts on this thread till it's all done and dusted.

no im not.

In the space of one post, I’m saying it’s not a takeover, but I’m not saying the owner will be here all season. Bases. Covered.

 

[Steeeeed]

A chancer, because he always bottled it, and used his media jock voice to convince everyone he knew what he was doing.

Scottish man speaks with Scottish accent. What a chancer eh?

 

[Zak's Dad]

Scottish man speaks with Scottish accent. What a chancer eh?

Scottish man speaks with a Scottish accent "to the media".

You can't argue with that.

Chancer - QED.

Methven was the one who really pushed for him to become manager after going up to Scotland to interview him. And he was cheaper than some of the others in the frame, specifically Wilder.

Then Methven was the alleged main protagonist in getting rid of him, and you can see in the clips of CM in the play off final v Charlton on STID2 that he’d clearly grown irritated with him.
@rubberface has suggested of late that Ross and Methven had more than a verbal argument at one stage.

Methven bigged him up in his programme notes and media outings but the minute things went wrong never defended him.

Brian Clough once said that football club owners who appoint managers and then sack them should perhaps think about sacking themselves as that manager was their choice based on their supposed expertise in the selection process!

Someone that knows Ross personally reckons it’s complete and utter lies mind

Whatever his perceived faults, Ross has always come over as a decent person. I hope he does well in the future.

I did like Ross as a person but he bottled it at Wembley.

I read this thread every other day, and always manage to miss the meltdowns, I notice this time it took two whole minutes from ”I’m not posting on this thread again” to the icecaps beginning to thaw.
