Really wish people would stop getting peoples hopes up for days on end. Even JT’s tweet was annoying to read yesterday, it’s great that it MIGHT be done but why tweet anything until it’s done. Fans have been indoors without much human interaction for a year without that much hope in sight of when that’ll end, our football team is absolutely shite yet people on Twitter fancy being the first to the headlines by getting people excited only to be let down when it doesn’t happen that day.

We’re all getting a bit impatient with it and I’m sure it’ll happen, but let’s just wait for the announcement

Absolutely mirrors my own thoughts as I said in an earlier post...

I am lead to believe from a very reliable source, and no I won't reveal who, that part of the delay is contacting all the shareholders individually. Now I don't know how many there are but judging by the posters on here there are quite a few who only hold a small number of shares. Add that to the shareholders who don't post on The Fishy and you could have quite a lot of shareholders to contact. Then you have to wait for replies, with the distinct possibility that some may have passed away and relatives unaware that they held shares in GTFC.

What are shareholders being asked for and what replies are needed?

I’m a modest shareholder and have had no contact with the club.

Surely we’ve got a big red book with all their fax numbers scribbled in pencil?

According to companies house on the 2nd Nov, there are 1,817 shareholders holding a various amount of shares. If these have to be contacted then it could take a long time.

We just know that they will release the details and confirmation on April 1st!

With an article that morning in the Telegraph quoting that as part of the deal the Dock Tower is to be demolished and replaced with a 309ft high cardboard cutout of Mr Fenty

Does this post mean that you (Fillipe Noche) are leaving (as in moving home)? I am sure many on here will be interested to know.
