We don’t need to know their plans as they’ve already been written by members of The Fishy and Fans on Twitter. They are certain to do absolutely everything you’ve all said they should do.

It’s going to be Brexit-like sunlit uplands

They aren't the current board, which is more than enough for me for now.

It's not going to be difficult for them to make a better fist of it than JF and his not so merry men.

They need to take the helm before making more detailed plans.  


Agreed.

They did say that they would not be commenting further until the Takeover was complete.

Speculation and innuendo does no good in the circumstances. Let's just wait till they make that announcement. Then we can harrass them for their detailed plans!

It's not going to be like Brexit at all. We have had no promises made to us by the consortium, they aren't peddling some sort of small minded vision of our past that we should return to and they aren't suggesting that our problems are all because of an external factor. And their leaders don't appear to be untrustworthy lying tw*ts.

What they've offered us is change from the incompetent, penny pinching, backward looking 'leadership' that we currently have. And we're buying it!

We could have change, to a worse ownership. What if their only interest is to aid their regeneration money making? All we know about them is that they contain tyre kickers, family butchers, and a guy who peddles positivity. Do they know anything about owning a football team, I fear not?

And just for good measure - I dearly hope that after only a month of their regime we won't all be seeing their lies come falling round their ears as the extent of the disaster becomes apparent, even more quickly than the most rabid detractors had feared.

I suspect that all three of them have read all the documents as well.

That is possible. Still preferable to man who knows a great deal about running a football club into the ground and consorts with convicted fraudsters.

Quoted from Jarmo.Is.God


I mean, why else would 3 wealthy businessmen, with local connections, want to take over?

It's public knowledge that they have plans for the club, and the town as well.

I come out with one rumour about the defender signing, which eventually come off (Meyenese), slightly delayed albeit.

I don't claim to have any inside knowledge at all, other than knowing someone who is known by majority at the club, but isn't directly involved in the club, other than being a fan.


Jarmo you made the statement not me. If it's rumour say it's a rumour.

The only reason I can think of as to why 3 wealthy business want to invest in anything is a return on money.

You then make another statement :-

It's public knowledge that they have plans for the club, and the town as well

The ONLY thing they have made public is :-

They wish to buy Fent'y shares and pay off his loans.
Their preference for a new stadium is the docks

So what are the other plans YOU say are in the public domain? Have they applied for planning permission for any development?

At the end of the day you are the one making statements of what WILL happen as if the information is based on facts. If your info is not fact based then say so, If it's an opinion say so, if it's a rumour say so. Stop misleading fans and building up hopes.

And here's a scoop for you. A majority of people on the site are, like you, aware of me so If I win £100millions on the lottery I will buy Town. That is a statement and is as ambiguous as your falso info.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time
