Takeover Rumours

[Bulmers]

It doesn't matter that much. If they are to get the best price for us and make a profit, they'll only be selling to someone who really would be rich enough to only want a play-thing.

having worked for him i have the uttermost respect for Mr Dell but i will tell you this he doesn't do playthings.

 

[Confucius]

You know when SD gave us our club back and I claimed it was great and much better than throwing money around in the premier league? Well I was talking shite ok?

 

[Shandy drinker]

lets take a moment
I hope the madpies don't try to usurp us and with an offer from Sinclair or Acorn

 

[Maravilla]

They're already doing better than we have in my lifetime, so it's kind of worked for them already.

Would love to see us finish 7th in the Premier League and play in Europe like them but would like us to have a more sustainable model than theirs looks.

 

[SAFC CLUD]

Anything more than 50% is control; full control is more than 75%. For these investors, I think Donald will sell 75.1%.

Like being on dragons den this

 

[Biffo The Bear]

Never - that's the point of the metaphor!

Though actually, this is a seriously advanced deal from the ray it's being reported. It's in the Times, BBC, Sky News - it's not rumours.

So was our takeover by Sheikh Whatshisname. Have to be honest this being true would be a total and utter f***ing nightmare.

Was never enamoured with Campbell but park would have been a good addition. Doesn’t matter who buys us if they don’t sort out the footballing hierarchy. My worry is this group will be reliant on Donald and we’ll have new owners but still be employing hill, coton et al.

what gives you the impression hill has done a bad job?
SD must be runnin safc very well indeed for these lads to want him to stay on.

 

[iPabs]

So thats Danepak & Dell fucked.

Yer picture.

 

[horselover]

I suspect people are getting a bit carried away


we wont be pissing millions up against the wall. we cant as thanks to the FFP rules and our low income

we won't have low income for long

That only became shite once lack of action was obvious.

In 2 weeks it maybe the case but for now fuck off

I’m not impressed with either the strategy or effectiveness off the recruitment. I think he’s unqualified for the position and only got the job because of who he knows.

well it drops £10m next year..and no evidence these guys want to put that back in themselves..

Next season's big mike's fantasy takeover will be Amstrad founder Alan Michael Suger

 

[Maravilla]

We all just want to see some progress. The reason Ross and club is getting some flack as some supporters don't see us moving forward.

Sensible, long-term planning with signs of progression every year would see everybody happy surely?

 

[Ohnonotagain]

MSD are that big they could invest multi millions just to use us as tax loss for their other companies.
Soz......getting carried away here.

Respect for your honesty there Biffo. I’ll leave the mag baiting till I can speak to my brother, that’s all the joy I need at the minute

 

[Realist]

People said the same about Ellis Short coming in, gerrin get the cheque book out, look what happened there. Money doesn't solve everything I'm afraid. I hope it goes well and we reach the Prem to sustain top half of the table but I will believe it when I see it and not before.

 

[Reiver]

And you wanted to be a fans representative? Think we all dodged a bullet there mind. As we are all entitled to be here as fans I think I will stay thanks.

I currently have a different hat on, the one that says 'Cheer up ffs'.

 

[Botchie]

Are we allowed to dream and get excited about this as iirc the mags were mocked for getting all giddy about the Arabs.

Perhaps it’s one rule for one and one for the other though so just checking...........

Lighten up man ya dafty. A lot of it is tongue in cheek. You should know by now we have to enjoy any little scraps of good news as the inevitable kick the stones is never far away.

@Biffo The Bear is a decent mag. One of the only ones on here.
