Had another let down this morning, walking in to reception at work and sky news is on and the yellow ticker at the bottom of the screen was scrolling, all I saw on first look was 'football club.....announced.....new'..... my heart did a jump then crushingly saw it was about lampard.

I'm still tempted to go just so I can shout abuse for 90mins.

Hopefully this is just paper filling their pages with made up shite. If it's true then takeover isn't happening.

Aye...mind if we do try spend some if it we'll have to take agent fees and wages out of the 30 million.

Hopefully he wont be so kind on the powers that be with his comments should this go through.

My completely bonkers theory is that he has the new owners 'permission' on who can go. Haha!! I know, I know!! More likely what you say, if new owners were close to coming I just can't see them being okay with the club losing it's major assets unless they are so bullish they think they can rebuild team in a month.

In where ? At the training ground I'd assume? Surely this. Players return. Will be lots of reporters etc. possibly some pissed off fans with a bedsheet.

Cheers for clearing up. I'll not get the beer out the fridge just yet.

Where you getting that from? I thought yesterday there was two claims that statements were 'imminent', one from the radio guy based in middle east and the other was Shields Gazette late last night. Have both not been shown to be mistaken or is it me?

So hee-haw statements (that we know of) are being released this week?

in all seriousness he's probably raging that we apparently spent money on painting some walls in the past 3 years. wants to see for himself.

He's away to take the 'manager' sign off Rafa's old office door. Probably doing a stationary count to make sure none of Rafa's lot took any with them There's a pack of post-it's and a SD pen missing!! Contact Beijing to start extradition process!

Is that not just someone making up what they think the statement will be?

Edit: first bit ain't funny!

Not if they want their own man. I just cant see this being the case myself like Unless they promised Mourinho the job or something. I know i kmow Funny, I've been thinking about this this evening.... making some big leaps in my logic but here goes...…. it's well known that Jose has 1) affection for this club 2) is looking for a 'project' 3) is highly thought of in the middle east (maybe more so than Rafa is?) pure guesswork on my part 4) is linked to the job in some way If I was Jose I would have had my representatives contact BZG a few weeks ago about the possibility of working with them should they take over (kind of like it was Rafa who got in touch with us, we didn't go looking for him) Managers at that level know what they want and go for it. Rafa was perfect for us but I can see Jose doing well here (provided not under the fat cunt obviously). Would rather have Mikel Arteta, Roberto Martinez or Eddie Howe instead of Jose Mourinho though! Agree that all 3 would be good options but, and maybe I'm doing BZG a disservice but don't think they'd be looking at/considering any of them. Think they'd go for a Jose as big headline grabbing statement of intent.

This.

He can’t just sit around waiting for a takeover to happen and the new owners might not appoint him as manager Rafa’s gone Oh, understand that... not the point I was making.... was hoping (dreaming) that he was waiting in the wings to come back to us. If he does sign for this Chinese crew he's the type of gentleman that would honour his contract which means he wouldn't ditch them IF we got new owners and IF they wanted him. Either he's sounded out new owners and been told he wasn't going to be wanted or the takeover is still long way off/pie in the sky. Aye I see what you mean. It’s all just grim. Agree!

Oh FFS no! Just no!! IF this happens Rafa's gone down a milli-step in my estimations. Thought he'd be better than taking the Yuan. Means if takeover does happen (I know, I know!) then he'll not be coming back to us. Is this the sort of 'project' he wants? Or just after the past 3yrs of shite he just wants a job where he'll have a degree of autonomy not afforded to him here.

Don't take anything serious. Just await the announcement of take over has collapsed or completed. All the micro emotions and information reactions is just painfully tedious and impossible to gauge anything meaningful from. Cheers! Hard to put in to practice tho!

I'm at the stage where I can't trust my own mind to judge what's BS and what's not.... So can someone tell me should I be getting excited about this latest piece of "information"?

Just signed up. In ideal scenario the trust will be a force to help rid us of the cancer but if not still a positive force for good.

That Neville sister is quitting the netball team..... coincidence?
