Can l be the first to say re: Italian's possible takeover...

Fu*k off.

We're building a club from scratch playing the right way and at last we are looking like we have a very good future. We use words and phrases like honesty, trust, endeavour, layering, Rolls Royce, clean sheets are king, l've been growing a beard.... We love the West Stand toilets, the peeling paint, the wooden seats in the West that hurt your arse midway through the second half. We like the fact that we struggled with the firework display for our 125th anniversary game and we have kind of grown to love Comical Ali being the spokesperson for our club.

Getting rid of Hill and Flicker and replacing them with more than likely an Italian that can't say "sithi" ain't my cup of tea.

If its all true like.

 

Who says they'd get rid of the current management team if they are doing so well?

 

The reports say they'll bring in their own management team.

You mean the gospel according to "skysports understands"? I'm really not looking too much into that flakey statement without words from a potential new owner to back it up.

if not there then where else has this press rumour been printed out of curiosity?

 

Serie A nursery club in sunny South Yorkshire, making men of wannabe prima donnas. Reight idea!

 

Majority of the reports from the weekend have said they'd be looking to bring in their own management team. Google them.

You won't get words from a "potential new owner" The Don isn't revealing who they are until a concrete offer is in.

 

The snap on sale in the ground might improve; there might even be some of that ****** bread on offer.

 

Full Ponty will be in his element.

 

What i read from that is "rumoured" and that the arabs can't close a deal with Leeds. How long has that been going on now? since before the start of the season and then some?
Whatever happens will happen regardless of the sentiment on here. As i said, i don't want a new management team but this club desperately needs new investment to push on. Otherwise we'll be back to flogging our best players in Jan and trying to dodge the relegation trap door again and again and again until our luck runs out. This is the reason theres only 7500 season ticket holders and we are struggling to get 10K in most home games these days. This proposed takeover says 2 things to me and thats hope & ambition!

 

New club colours Azurri blue and waving white flags all game it`ll be the new rage. Whats to moan at really.

 

Pie and peas with a balsamic jus, parmesan shavings and bruscetta croutons washed down with an Acorn/Prosecco shandy. Bellisimo.

 

but only in exec suite it`ll some Iti peasant droppings ont menu for the riff raff.

 

Sky Sports think so...and I'd be surprised if they didn't particularly the Italians..wouldn't be the first time...look at Sean Dyche at Watford

 

Different consortiums at Leeds, beginning of the summer it was Kuwaiti and now a Bahrain group are interested. We all know we need investment, that's the bit that doesn't require a degree but Hill is building something right through the club down to the under 18's and this year l feel we are beginning to see his hardwork, he himself says that last year was a learning curve. If the reports are to be believed and the Italians are front runners and will bring in their own mangement team i fear we will lose everything we are currently building up. Because they maybe prepared to throw £10 million at it doesn't mean its going to be success.

New investment for Keef Hill l'm all for, we'll **** it.

Long Live Keef.

 

To replace the most talented management team in this league on the back of a 10m team investment does not make sense. Despite the low sum we received, in Vaz Te, KH created arguably, a £5m footballer from scrap. On current form, Craig is worth a couple of million. The take over has been coming but it has to be right, it's all conjecture at this point so I'm not stressing, just looking forward to saturday and getting behind the lads.

 

the reason bfc will probably amount to nowt....narrow minded fans like the ones on here who don't want change....even if that means being skint/cr.ap forever

ffs

hth

 

I think Keef were around when West Stand were built, nice on Keith you did a good job there we wouldn`t have hed it if weren`t for him, cos amount of credit this guy gets for all aspects of the club are truly laughable at times.

Rein yersens in, galloping away.

 

The U18's/U21's are playing the same brand of football as the first team, teams throughout the club playing it on the floor with confidence and its nice to watch. Building a footballing club not just a first team, like he keeps preaching, he'll do for me.

 

Thats what happens at clubs Gord, we must have been truly ***** before he came without any clue whatsoever even.

When it works its a delight and when it doesn`t its turgid *****.

 

Probably explain the production line of talent that's come from the academy since it was built in the late nineties...

Albeit Hill hasn't been here that long to have had much of an influence on Stones, Diggers, Clickers, and all the other with good nicknames but l think he's the man to take them from youth team into the first. We've had a lot of good youth prospects over the years but not many have made the step up.

I'm on a ****fest with regards to Mr Hill today an all. Must have been Saturday that's done it.
