  1. Don't even follow them or view their tweets. Just ignore their existence entirely. See also Hopkins, Katie.
  2. Generally I'd agree with point 6, but if this takeover is announced early morning, I absolutely will be having cans for breakfast.
  3. Hopefully nobody, until it actually goes through. Otherwise we run the risk of looking incredibly stupid.
  4. I'd have absolutely no problem with starting at 7 if I woke up to an announcement. None whatsoever. In fact I hope it does get announced early one morning just to see how many people are committed to the celebratory piss up To be fair, despite my protestations, if this goes through I'm starting immediately, irrespective of the time of day.
  5. Always glad when I wake up and it's not announced, because I'm not sure I could start drinking this early!
  6. Sure I read they do fuck all on Fridays n'al. Lazy bastards. To be brutally honest, it's almost impossible to get anyone to work on any day of the week out there. If you send them for a 15 minute break, you need to GPS tag first them because they could be gone for hours. But officially, their days off are Friday and Saturday. Friday is their holy day, and there's not a hope in hell of getting any of them to do anything then. Think about if you asked someone to work Christmas Day in the UK, but have that mentality 52 times a year. Saturday they're a bit more relaxed. Sunday to Thursday are a normal working days.
  7. The passage of time without good news, and our own unmatched ability to repeatedly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?
  8. Got my bath run and the toaster next to it. I'm resolving this one way or another shortly.
  9. Because once its done, it cannot fail and collapse. It's nothing to do with people being imbeciles. People are just a bit twitchy and worried. If/when it's done, we can all relax.
  10. Whilst I know what you say is true, it's crazy that Swift is still used. I know some banks have switched to settling by new things like XRP which settle almost instantly and have done for the past couple of years, but I'm surprised these haven't taken off quicker.
  11. I'm allowing myself to be cautiously optimistic, but under no circumstances will I get excited until this is done. I've been burnt far too many times before. And I refuse to have mackems, or fans of other clubs, rubbing my face in any failed takeover. I'll stay guarded, but optimistic, until confirmation is given. Then I'll go fucking nuts.
  12. It's not the greatest banter in the world but the #cans stuff is fine and harmless. In the scheme of things, it would be an odd thing to get hung up about. If this takeover goes through, I'm sure that despite whatever reservations we might all have about the new owners then the vast majority of us will see it as a cause for celebration, even if just because Ashley is gone. If #cans helps focus that joy a little, then why not?
  13. They're all just jumping on the bandwagon though, none of these posts mean anything.
  14. About the only way this'll get a round of applause from the whole country.
  15. Oh come on. I mean yes, I'd accept it. I'd accept being kicked in the balls to get rid of Ashley too, but it'd be fucking horrific watching Bruce being given an army of superstars and grinding out a 9th place finish whilst the media crow over how he's turned the club around. Just fuck no. Get rid of him on day 1. End of season at the very latest if they want to just get over the line and get someone new in the summer, but he should be sacked as soon as humanly possible and someone less resembling a human cabbage placed in charge instead, because anything else will be utterly galling.
  16. I've got two #cans waiting in the fridge, but after I've done my patriotic duty with them I'll be moving onto a nice single malt. Then whilst drinking that, I'll watch some old YouTube videos of our happier times, videos I've not really watched in a long time. Then I think it'll be alcohol and YouTube until I can't drink anymore.
  17. Or maybe, just MAYBE, that website knows absolutely nothing? Just a possibility...
  18. I think you discovered exactly what his net worth is, that's the problem.
  19. Now THIS is a tyre-kicker. Not a hope he's got £350m. Doesn't even have a Wikipedia page as far as I can tell. CEO of something called "Clear TV Ltd". Heard of them? Me neither. Not a lot on Google either. Only way he could buy us is through massive borrowing like the Glazers did.
  20. Gotta say like, this last fortnight has been the longest 6 months of my life.
  21. And if it all goes tits up, maybe change it to "Everybody hurts / Losing my religion"
  22. Actually yes, maybe it was Swiss Tony. I always confuse him and Einstein. Think it's the hair and moustache.
