Takeover Rumours

Status
Not open for further replies.

It is my belief that as this sleeping giant of a club awakes, we need a new pedestrian bridge over the river connecting the Vaux site (on which we may need another hotel) to the SoL to ease congestion, a new airport on the fallow Nissan land that Brexit will create, and a new car park, somewhere.

The popularity of this message may also increase as a result of impending activity, so I would ask folks to install dictionaries and grammarly on devices, because, sometimes we need it, frankly :).

Be an ambassador for your club.

This place will be like the ending of the Truman Show when it's finally announced. Wild celebrations, followed by people not having a clue how to spend their time.

I'm certain it is the Truman Show and I'm the main character and all you fuckas on here are part of the set up and posting about a takeover that was never real in the first place, either that or it is some massive social experiment to see how we react when it falls through, or......………..its really happening
 
There's an important issue emerging here.

This thread is bringing out the modern trend of people believing they have a civil right to demand statements, from whoever they choose, at the drop of a hat.

There's been many references to people 'behaving like Mags' simply for being excited about an unprecedented takeover.

In my humble opinion it's a great deal more Mag-like to be constantly stamping feet and demanding to know what's going on with private negotiations.

It's much more infantile than dreaming of winning trophies and some people appear quite deluded tbh.

Agree with this 100%. People who seem barely able to tie their own shoe laces demanding to know the ins and outs of a multi million pound international business deal.

Well said mate. I'm relaxed about it all, and when the announcement comes, it comes.

Be interesting to chart the time that elapses between the euphoria of the deal being announced officially, people buying Dell products and making up crap puns - we’re (lap)top of the league and so forth, and the first thread saying “what have these Yankee bastards done for the club really?” when we’re not top six in the premier league after 18 months. Or something.

People forget that we are the fans of the club, not it’s owners. Obviously official statements / updates would be nice, but those demanding them are deluded.

It’s like demanding an update from your bank if they’ve been linked with being bought out by another one.
