Ahhhhhhh right well that clears it all up then. I will believe it when it's on the official NCFC website or on the pink-un main headlines. Anything else to me is merely gossip and speculation. No disrespect intended.

If a deal is that close and you know so much, you must have a pretty good idea who they're talking to. Come on, let's be 'avin yer . . .

Strawberry, it wouldn't be very p.c. for me to say anything more.
|

ehm no substance to your story, because you are talking a load of plop...
Just be honest like your friend The Butler and beg for people not to protest and be nasty to poor old Delia and Michael.
You really are pathetic!!!
|
|
I couldn't give a flying f**k if you protest or not, in fact go for it, then in about 3 weeks time you can claim your protests chased the Stowmarket two out.
I maybe pathetic, but I am not the one that organised a protest supported by one man and his dog.
|
|
I would say that I have hit the nail firmly on the head there wouldn't you???
No need to get all nasty and agitated about it dear boy.
How much do you want to bet that she isn't here in 3 weeks then?
I bet £500 that she is.
|

Smudger I promise you, Delia & Michael have had enough now, amd providing everything goes to plan the new owner will be in place by the time the players come back from the international break. No bull, no anything, its the way it is.
|
|
Want to have a little wager on it then???
Maybe you can give me good odds if you are so sure it's a certainty??? ![Zip it! [:#]](/cs/emoticons/emotion-16.gif)

True, in fact it may just push their hands a little.

It just does not work that way. You are talking about a complex set of negotiations and investigation. The club is not some small business any more. multi million turnover with subsiduaries and diverse interests. The football side, however regretable, is now only a part of the whole. CMW and myself have tried, in the interest of fans, to post a little knowledge for general consumption. Business ETHICS and personal reasons prevent the divulgence of all that I have been told. If some on here don't know the old fashioned word then look it up. For this we have both been subject to abuse and name calling beyond reason. That is a good way to get more people to come forward with information. I suppose in the mad house the biggest fool is bound to be King. Long live Smuger.

For what it's worth I do believe there is some truth in what you say, trouble is there is so much bull posted on this board that anyone who claims to have knowledge of goings on at NCFC is either a scummer or talking bull according to some on here. Unless you and Carl Moores wallet are in callaboration with each other or the same person the fact that you have both heard the same thing makes me think there's something in this.
The fact is that something is likely to happen sooner or later and with it being several weeks since the Turners departure there has been plenty of time for negotiations to have taken place.

I heard a similar thing a couple of days ago. Wheter that was spurned from this thread or from genuine inside knowledge (he claimed the later) isn't certain.

Inch High I am hardly going to offer anybody a bet not because it will not happen,but because the 3 weeks is what is expected, not written in stone.
Like other posters have said selling a football club is not like selling a car, certain criteria has to be meet, certain issues need to be looked at, things crop up, which all means the 3 weeks could be 4 weeks or 5 weeks, but fear not it will be a done deal very very soon.

ok how about 3 months then if you prefer???

Once again I must be missing something here, are people in denial about the proposed sale?
Over the course of the last seven days I have had meetings with two people, one of whom is close to the club, the other who is close to the proposed purchaser and both have pretty much said the same thing. Negotiations are ongoing but the purchaser quite rightly is only willing to pay market rate and no more, after all why should he pay more?
Perhaps there are other parties interested although I doubt it, considering the overall financial fire power of the proposed purchaser I can not realistically think that there are many other pole willing to not only acquire a majority share holding, take over bank loans and still have sufficient funds available to really push the club forward?
There you go, I genuinely believe we are close to seeing a change in ownership having been given very good information to support this idea. For many this has been a long time coming but we could very shortly enter an absolutely critical stage for the club, namely a new owner and the current management.
Stability is paramount given our hopeless start to this campaign but if Roeder does not fit the bill for the new owner I really would worry about making yet another managerial change mid season; does he back him in the transfer market in January or get rid of him now or perhaps wait and see if things improve?
There are some good mangers out of work who would I would think do very well with a proper war chest.
Interesting but challenging times I think

Bury I have heard nothing but what you say makes good business sense. I totally believe that something is going on as not only are there lots of rumours but the whole situation suggests that some acxtion is very likely.
I have no idea about the Butler or CMW but I will say this. They are being berated for not saying more. If someone in my team on a deal said as much as they have already then I would sack them. Without notice or pay in lieu. Leaking confidential business information is gross misconduct. Now that is between them and their consciences but you cannot seriously expect anyone in the know (not even you Jas) to give full information. They would not only be sacked but would never work in law, accountancy, banking or whatever fierld they are in.
Am I alone in thinking that Smudger is so sceptical because if a deal happens and Delia and Michael sell up, the whole purpose of his life will collapse?
