It's probably the honourable thing, or even the legal, to not speak about a potential acquisition before it goes through.

Similar to how a manager will refuse to be drawn to comment on a potential signing out of respect to the club he currently represents.

Have we?  Not seen any figures, which would suggest sales are down.

Have you actually heard something as such or just a bit fed up of waiting ?   I haven't seen anything that changes it one way or another.  Or have I missed something ??


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

If it is dead can someone come out with confirmation please so that we can all move on.



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Well.. only nine days ago JF stated the takeover was still possible. Are you more in the know than the owner of the club himself? Or are you calling JF a liar? Or has he been stringing it out to sell more season tickets?

I wouldn't know, but you seem to without disclosing any facts at all to back up your claim..

Not all of us was so gullible or desperate to swallow this story hook line and sinker.Believe me any potential takeover will be completed before any sniff of it is mentioned in the public domain.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

As it should be, to be honest. There's a reason some management decisions sit with management before completion, because of what's at stake, emotions involved etc.

We know there's interest and that Fenty is actively listening to potential offers, it would be detrimental to the process for the fans to know the ins and outs whilst we're still talking hypothetical.

I hope it happens soon - although we also need to get the right buyer. Whatever you think of Fenty, he won't sell the club to some chancer who will run us into the ground and we end up in Bury's situation.

Spot on MarinerWY, we will have to wait and see.

As for the new stadium, if the council are involved, then it will take an age for anything to happen. They cannot do anything without countless meetings and debate and consultation.
