Takeover Rumours

Not open for further replies.

If all this comes off, I hope NUFC fans get to experience how I’ve felt about their good fortune since 1992. They’ve completely reinvented their own status. Before the John Hall era, they were getting crappy crowds. And their glorious history was slightly less glorious than ours. Since then, they’ve seen themselves as somehow superior. They’re not. They never were. I hope we get to a point where we can put them in their place. Obviously, that’s a long way off but you never know, with new very, very rich owners. Maybe, just maybe, we might. Here’s hoping

Was saying to my mates coming out of the ground that I hope they don't think the weather is always like this! Think we should have had Bruce Springstein and the star spangled banner blasting out before the game, changed strip of red white and blue, 50 gorgeous cheer leaders doing their stuff prior to kick off and that sort of thing etc.

And Dell Technologies heiress Alexa Dell, 24, looked blissfully happy as she celebrated her engagement to millionaire Harrison Refoua, 40,

Their definition of blissfully happy differs somewhat to mine looking at that picture.

He's staying on so he clearly has an interest in the club too.

Yep, he loves football. You don’t get involved with a little club like Eastleigh unless you’ve got ‘the bug’! And this takeover of those rare situations where everyone does well.

He hugely gambled by taking on Sunderland, but will end up with a bumper pay day. Fair play.

I have no problem at all Marra.
A genuine question, that nobody seems to know the answer to.
If Donald and Methven were owners, then surely the new owners would have to buy their shares, or a major proportion of them.
So if they are staying on with a minor shareholding, then what did they get in return
Just wondering.

They keep their shares, but probably get payed much more than they’ve been allowing themselves up until now.

Glory is fleeting but obscurity is forever.
They never won anything anyway
