Great thread - good example for others. No bickering sensible comment and informative. Just one poster came on to make daft comment despite contributing nothing else. Enjoyed it.

I'm sure the reason for the sale happening when it did was simply that at last Garlick had found someone to buy it. It was documented in the press, particularly the Times that he had been in negotiation with people for the previous 4 years.

72 hours up another dodgy piece of news
He is still gong to WBA.

Funny reported Roy was approached about the job and has just turned it down. This could affect things but questions your news as reliable.

Dyche says: “At the very first board meeting I attended, I asked where the Premier League money had gone from that season [2009/10]. They said: ‘What do you mean?’ I told them that I had played at Turf Moor loads of times and the changing rooms were still the same. They didn’t have a training ground...

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez says clubs will not be able to sign Paris St-Germain and France striker Kylian Mbappe, 22, or Borussia Dortmund and Norway forward Erling Braut Haaland, 20, without the European Super League. (El Larguero, via Goal). I can't believe this man sometimes. So he wa...

So club President of real Madrid has made a statement on Spanish TV "Audiences are decreasing and rights are decreasing and something had to be done. We are all ruined. Television has to change so we can adapt." It seems extremely simple to me they are unable to live within their means despite incom...

First period, first year with him - put his briefcase on the desk pulled out a pump and slammed it on the desk. " this is my slipper and it's called ward 10 because I only use it in emergencies". No hint of joke just a stern look. Think of it what you will but that's my abiding memory of him.

Layman writing. Having spent a couple of hours going through the posts in simple terms can anybody give me a clue as to which bits I’ve got wrong or misunderstood if any. If the deal involves a return of shares to JB/MG it presumes that there is a real possibility of ALK not being able to make the r...

“Call me old fashioned I do not think a Director of a Premier League club should be doing this - what happens when we are on a bad run? That is not to say that communication from the club could improve - it can there are more strategic and operational things he can talk about not the result of a mat...

Anybody of the above who have doubts now wish Farnell had succeeded - wasn't he going to finance it in similar fashion - to everyone's horror -but ultimately may have had some middle eastern capital that could be arranged.

So it’s like this to us non-financial ordinary Joes going off the above? The current owners have trousered a nice profit (which may be ok) and moved on (yet still on the board) Surprisingly if ALK fail to pay their instalments they get the club back ( not sure if this shows little confidence in the ...

Not sure it's the same beer. This one says its brewed by Hops and Shots Chorley. It describes itself as a light coloured beer with hintsof tropical fruits and spicy aftertaste . Whatever I'm getting g a real taste for it and the lager.

Christmas gift of No nay never bitter, Longside lager and the stout. Just opened a couple of them (lager and bitter) and surprised how good they are. The lager has great flavour and is a real cut above your average pub lager. The bitter is especially good with lots of flavour and great balance , not...

This board has certainly gone downhill which is a shame. One of the problems I think is certain posters seem to want to reply to everything and if some one responds to their post they must reply and just don't let anything drop. Make your point and move on you don't need to challenge everything. Som...

Looked one of the better players against Fulham. I thought him, Jensen and Gomez Mancini were our stand outs, though that's only off one game. Mancini looked better than Benson - lets hope he is and can keep it up. Can't have too many good prospects.

There's an awful lot of similarities between the old article and the present bids. I'm assuming media maybe being used a little loosely. Who were those bidders and why did it disappear to be replaced by two geographically identical groups? Anyone able to see the rest as it's behind a pay wall?

"am not aware of anyone involved saying they've been going on for over 12 months. I do know that we issued a prospectus around two years ago. I've no idea when talks started with these two parties and I've no idea where this 'for over 12 months' has come from." Try the Times article of March 2018 th...

Question for Chester and those who have followed this. I posted an article link from March 2018 in The Times saying an American and Middle eastern bid were being considered for £180 million. Is this the same people over 2 years on who are now finally moving into the end game of very long negotiations?

cblantfanclub

Can't dispute that. Maybe I should have said for performance.

cblantfanclub

I confess I didn't see the match or listen on the radio. Because of this I am reliant on reading the reports and opinions shared on here as well as the national press. I had got an impression of things - applying the usual filters - and then read this and felt slightly better. Though I still think y...

The above article mentions rival American and middle East bids way back then.

DJW - I suggest just stop posting stuff you're guessing at pretending you have a source - the worst in football history - along with BW. It doesn't bother me but it winds up a lot of younger board members and creates a lot of dross which makes the board harder to read. Now off you go - hopefully - a...

What's happened to Claretspice not seen him on these threads in a fair while?

"A persons top speed reduces by 0.13mph for every year after the age of 22."

That's pretty precise. I should hardly be able to move now.

BBC - "The Clarets are winless in each of the last 18 Premier League fixtures that James Tarkowski has missed, losing 10 of those matches." Tall Paul - "He's only missed ten games in the last three seasons, since Keane left." and of those we drew 6 and lost 4 that really is bad journalism - even if ...

"Presumably this is the investment that DanielJWaterhouse has been referring to" Guessing at more like.

DjW - "As I have said, if it doesn’t happen, and sometimes these things fall through, then I will happily apologise."

Apologise for what? Reporting what you know in good faith, I don't think that warrants an apology. So what circumstances would warrant an apology from you?

Has to be morning Cappuccino. But as above very difficult to get here. In Italy it's a short drink served in a small cup but over here is used to impart a little flavour into a bucket of milk - even in most coffee shops. Resorted to making my own. Oh! without chocolate for me please.

Daniel j - It's almost as if you were clairvoyant. " I can hear United they're here in the room knock twice for Dwight, once for Tarks."

Bet the club love you. You're either this MB's answer to Mystic Meg or you've just got someone the sack.
