Today is the day

Maybe Donald won the Euromillions midweek and we’ll be okay for a season or two.

I’m expecting investment from the yanks not a full blown takeover .Dont think it’ll be done and dusted today but certainly tonight or over the weekend some update from Stewy.

Investment is ok atm ,just get them onboard in some capacity as loads of coin is needed when we go up not now

 

[JL1985]

Here's a question for you. How much do you think Barnsley's owners are worth?

Pushing 10 billion

It’s nearly 10 billion

Let’s hope for some news today good or bad.
Supporters need to know what the hell,s going now.

 

[lawe toppa]

Yes.

What was said and by whom? Cheers

 

[AC Mack]

Woe is me. It’s the end of the world.

Let’s expect the worst and then we won’t be disappointed.

What a bunch of absolute dripping fannies on here.

That old chestnut.

 

[Bennyftm]

It’s nearly 10 billion

Just goes to show doesn’t it ? just wish this was all sorted one way or another and sort decent manager so we can crack on and get out of this fuking league

Deal is still on said by chas

 

[threepenny bits]

I hope he hasn’t fucked this up, fans won’t forgive him.

I'd be amazed if it happens after what's come out.
One thing that does baffle me is the fact the Americans would tell the sun the deal was off, seems like an odd choice.

I’ve seen not one shred of evidence that it’s off

I remain of the view that what we are seeing is normal due diligence in a business sense, but most of our supporters not understanding the full nuances of this and going into absolute (but understandable) panic mode as this is so exciting

Where are they in the league though. According to that Barnsley fan who gets on here they sold the team from under the manager in the summer and gave him young lads to work with. Just because these people are (very) wealthy it doesn't follow that they'll spend that money. Barnsley have a policy of buying prospects and taking the profits. Can you imagine being relegated back to L1 when your owners are that minted.

Maybe that's why the negotiations with the Americans have broken down. Maybe they just want a sustainable club that costs them little which they can flip for a profit too.

Personally I'm taking it with a pinch of salt till I hear it from the horses mouth, marra!

 

[oddbod]

If the calibre of managers we are supposedly looking at is true, then its off

yep this x a googol!!

Nope. Person from Tameside. (Dukinfield/Stalybridge/Ashton). Knowing my luck probably my ex wife

 

[Manny F]

That Donald has his excuses ready.

He's had a few days to prepare for the flak

Excuses for what? Business deals collapse every day for all kinds of reasons.

I hope he hasn’t fucked this up, fans won’t forgive him.

Again. Forgive him for what? Potential investors deciding to pass? I forgive him now.

 

[JL1985]

Every ownership is different. With money you should have more chance.

 

[SPUFF]

Deal is still on said by chas

was a very vague answer as usual.

Try £7bn.
