    Opening a chat thread and then telling everyone to be quiet. How's that supposed to work?

    Hyperbole. One poster, who fancies himself as a champion WUM has said that.

    Just been looking back at reported events on the takeover thus:

    June 2017 - Rumours start to circulate that a Consortium interested in taking the Club over
    has had a conducted tour round Oakwell.

    July 30th- Their intermediary appears to be British Financier Alexander Jarvis of Blackbrige who starts posting snippets on Twitter.

    August 18th- Article appears in the Daily Mail saying Barnsley FC owner Patrick Cryne is in advanced takeover talks
    with a Mr Chien Lee a Chinese businessman.

    August 24th- Mrs Jean Cryne and Mr James Cryne are made shareholders of Oakwell Holdings Ltd.
    Notice of consolidation form SH02 for sub dividing shares in Barnsley FC 2002, is lodged at Companies House.

    August 31st- Announced that the Chair of Barnsley FC Maurice Watkins had left the Club.

    September 6th- Article by Matt Hughes of the Times, informs that Billy Beane the brains behind the Moneyball concept
    was a minor shareholder in the possible takeover of Barnsley FC.

    September 16th- Members of the proposed takeover seen at the 130 year celebration game versus Aston Villa
    at Oakwell.

    September 26 th- A member of the Consortium Paul Conway seen sitting alongside Patrick Cryne at the
    QPR game at Oakwell.

    As well as the above we are given to understand that the Consortium are in discussions with Barnsley MBC
    to buy out their interest on the ground plus that the paperwork regarding the takeover of the Club could possibly
    be with the games Governing body to enable the due diligence/ fit for purposes process to take place , after which
    one would assume contracts can be signed and money can then change hands.

    All of the foregoing seems to me to confirm that the takeover is very definitely on, but that we need to show some patience
    before it actually can become a reality.!
