Llambias said no such thing.

No idea on this one, to be honest. It probably doesn't make any appreciable difference whether we have H&C or Kinnear. Except with Kinnear we would be waiting for him to keel over at any moment. Maybe we would do better with transfers with Kinnear, but I can't see us making many of those anyway with the ownership situation unresolved. R.taylor, kevin nolan. To be fair to the bloke, Mbia was his number one choice. Disclaimer: the above is in no way any indication that I back him even half a percent to come back.

Probably for the best tbf. Better the devil you know as they say. /What the hell is wrong this club.

Keep at it, I've pushed mine so low that Ashley staying and Kinnear returning sounds a mighty fine plan. Whatever happens, I shall be the happiest bunny alive!

Does anyone else feel it? I feel it. Somethings coming in the air tonight.

I think these two posts are the most depressing so far. It was claimed all along it was a Malaysian consortium, so if we are believing that, what difference does this individual ruling himself out make? Ah, to be fair, I prefer a consortium including a £7 billion dollar chappy with cheeky chops than one without. The inside track is that it was a bunch of Indonesians all along. No wonder it's taking so long. JAM KARET ftw!!!!

What's going on in here then!

After the fans? Hell it hurts, but the club lives on as does my looking forward to the coming season. Ashley has lost face, lost credibility, lost the security of his family (even if it is just a sense of unease, but it is likely more than that if he were to go out on the town again), and lost more money than I will ever get to see. I would say he has, all things considered, lost far more than me during his time here. A lot more than probably anyone on here. You're a braver man than me saying that! Probably right I suppose, I doubt many fans would have the perspective to admit it though. It would be braver to admit some sympathy towards him. Not sure I can go that far following the catalogue of errors he has apparently buit up during much of his time in charge though.

I fail to see how this is anything like pissing through a stiffy. It feels like we're a million miles from even getting a chub on.

Pushing it a bit when they have to start at 7. Maybe Smith gets a lie in for winning the cycle race (after Nolan got lost).

3pm You heard the same thing? heard it...he started it. He's not Anada Krishnan is he? no he's a text rumour starter. Keep the faith, feel the power rising. If we build up an unstopable force of belief Krishna will bless us. http://devadidev.com/images/krishna_0.jpg "3pm, 3pm, 3pm, 3pm, 3pm, 3pm, 3pm, 3pm, 3pm"

Quite the miserable minnie this morning. Whatever you say, I would far rather be in the position we are than be Swansea for a start. Take it easy chaps, we'll be fine.

3pm

Has anybody mentioned how Milner would still have been on half what Gutierrez gets even if he'd received the pay rise he was promised when he signed a contract extension in good faith when Ashley took over. Nope, nobody has mentioned that. Probably because, in the absense of proof, it sounds distinctly like bullshit.

I want the Austrians. Why am I not allowed to vote for the Austrians?

Bad news travels fast.

Sorry, was being a bit flippant, I don't have a clue. Kinnear said we had put in an intial bid of £5m and was considering doubling it. Who knows what happened next tbh. That's the point, people are arguing over things that we have no way of verifying and for the most part is just hearsay. Look how the 'qoutes', that nobody knew the identities of the bidders other than Keith Harris or that whoever met the £100m asking price in would get the club, have been picked over in this thread. As NUFC.com have pointed out, they are all from unamed sources and ultimately mean nothing. All we know officially at this point is that suitable bids have been lodged. Good. I hope that means we get another official quote that we have actully been sold pretty goddamn soon.

i just don't see why ? seems we offered what i would consider a fair price. Weren't we making noises about signing M'bia and Veloso all through the window before finally ringing City and the Mackems with those last minute panic bids? The whole exercise was a joke which was only made worse by Kinnear shouting for months beforehand how he was going to hit the January window with mike's backing. it was bollocks from start to finish and the sooner these clowns are out of here the better. I voted for the Malaysians incidentally. Money isn't everything but it's much better to have plenty of it. good points As i've said before, the fact we refused to pay anymore than £5m for Mbia but then 'bid' £8m for Johnson is laughable, absolutely laughable I understand we put together an overall package of £10.75 million for M'bia.

Take it Butt was refering to him as the player struggling with the time difference over in Ireland.

As remarkable as it sounds for the captain of our club, no not a peep. Nada, zero, zilch.
