    Anyone using this for point scoring on other fans isn't helping I don't think.

    I told you so's aren't worth a wnk in the grand scheme of things.

    There's a huge difference.
    Wednesday, Derby, Wigan got up to all sorts of chicanery to enable them to spend money they didn't have or money they weren't allowed to spend in order to unfairly compete.
    The rulebook according to the tinpotters is that we never spend anything. They're right in that we spend very little more than we can afford and so suffer in comparison to the above mentioned cheats.

    I know we disagree (a lot) but to be fair can't fault this post. I also wouldn't mind the current lot moving on but we need someone who is willing to invest / bankroll the club to a certain degree. Without full ground ownership though it's not exactly an exciting opportunity!

    Funny tweet from the Club just now.

    ELEVATE YOUR BRAND

    I know we're contractually obliged to do so many of these a week, but the timing is the best comedy of the day.

    Tampa Bay set to announce the return of Collins & Stead.

    Probably.

    We need taking over by Emirates or something because the covenant stipulates the land only be used for leisure and recreation.

    Okay I will. Martin Nettleton talks out of his ar$e. And is probably a fictitious character. Like Satoshi Nakamoto. There.

    This reactive communications strategy from the club really does nothing but annoy the fans tbh.

    I understand that certain pieces of information need to be kept quiet and also avoids the spread of false information and rumours, however, the lack of transparency is alienating the fans, pissing people off, and is frustrating and unnecessary.

    A proactive statement from the club to say evidence had been submitted to the EFL would’ve at least softened the blow of the announcement made today. This has come from nowhere and fans are rightly concerned.

    One step forward, god knows how many steps backwards.

    This season is going to be ……..interesting!

    The Conway, Lee and Hung trio started investing together in the Asian entertainment sector, including films as well as a portfolio of cartoons for the Chinese market, video games and merchandising spin-offs.

    Later on, other investors will join the consortium, including Chinese hotelier Alex Zheng as well as Indian investor and Krishen Sud. Tampa Bay Rays co-owner Randy Frankel, and former Rays executive Michael Kalt, gathered in a family office called Partners Path Capital, also joined the group on specific club acquisitions.

    I know it is not the Rowdys and probably a coincidence

    I'd have to agree that the club needs to be issuing some sort of broader statement pretty quick.

    As some of you may recall, I know Martin nettleton. He has just rung me to say he's bought a controlling stake in a company that makes flatbreads. Read into that what you will.

    I mean, will anyone really notice if we are placed under a transfer embargo?

    Everyone knows Khaled gets to the ground early to make the flatbreads.
