Can we please get back to the subject matter !

 


Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

Can't see this happening,we sell AWB and probably Wilf.

We can't be very attractive to any prospective buyers.

You must be joking. A sale price of £200m and assets including £100m cash in bank. You can't get much better than that

Not sure they’d get to keep the £100m cash in the bank. (If it’s even there)

I mean then it’s a no brainer right... £200m gets you a £100m cash plus Wilf.

Sell Wilf pocket the cash and your all square plus you now own CPFC and all its other assets..

Can’t imagine the deal would be that good.

Just read the article.. who knows.... all I do know is our current owners don’t seem to keen on spending money so let’s see..

 


Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

If so could this be a clue?

Would love to see thee Americans out of our club.

Its not them being American that's the problem its that they are investors . (they want to take a lot more out than they put in ).
I have never really got my head round why Paris allowed them to get involved

Yeah. Unlike the French to let someone just walk in and take over.

I have seen 2 figures £125m and £215m I think one of the papers has a typo.

Worrying times until we know more. Where is the money coming from? I hope they are not going to do a Man United and buy the club with our money saddling us with a load of debt?

What are their plans or do they see us a a PL cash cow?

Here's hoping its the right kind of owners.

The Sun article (which claims to be an "exclusive") does say a total of £215m:

It's a worrying article if true, especially the following quote

"The source of the money behind the takeover bid remains a mystery.

But it is believed to be a diverse consortium of wealthy individuals and companies from different parts of the world"

Whilst I'm more than happy with the club being taken over by someone with deep pockets I'm not sure that "a diverse consortium of wealthy individuals and companies from different parts of the world" is anything other than a recipe for disaster

Based on the information so far, I'd tend to agree.
