Absolutely mind blowing that.....its like they have just quoted paragraphs from the PL Handbook.  The Cronnie is just for wiping your arse with, isn't it!

Id rather stick with some 40-grit sandpaper if it's all the same :lol:

My confidence is growing daily that this takeover is going to happen soon, especially with what

@GeorgeCaulkin

has said regarding the PIF holding meetings about transfer targets, keeping everything crossed Crossed fingersCrossed fingers

I think you’re taking a bit much from that, certainly about soon.

Caulkin’s quotes from podcast.

 

There have been low-level meetings that have been going on between the buying side about potential players in case they can get it done in time for January.

 

“In terms of that confidence, that is the one thing that I will steer clear from. Simply because they’ve never been short of confidence.

 

“Confidence has never been a problem, the problem has been getting it done and that that hasn’t happened.

 

“So yes, they’re still confident and yes, they’re still there, they’ve not gone away, and still planning to take the club over.”

Bet some of those names on that list would break this forum right now.

 

Obviously we wouldn't go out and try to sign Messi, but they would want to make a big statement of their power imo so could definitely see some big names coming on big wages.

 

This takeover needs to happen so bad. Club is at a complete crossroads right now.

Said it a million times but so fucking frustrating that there are some wealthy people, with seemingly good intentions that want to buy the club. On the flip side, fatty mcfatfuck finally wants to sell to this group. On top of that, the fans are desperate for it to happen. However, the Premier League are a bunch of absolute cunts and won’t let it through. Fucking scandalous, whilst Wigan’s deal and countless others (I am aware that is the EFL, but still) sail through.

 

Steve Bruce the bacon snogger continues to steal a living, our ground continues to be littered by hideous Sports Direct tat and we continue to not threaten even the top ten as our coach and his staff are so inept it is unreal. Absolutely disgusting.

Maybe relegation is the aim. The lower leagues will wave a takeover through no bother. Back up in time for when the crowds can return to stadiums.

 

I’d take that if it was an option.

 

Promoted clubs have to undergo the PL O&D test before playing in the PL, so that's not an option.

Is Poch just waiting for this to go through before he makes his next move? Someone of his quality has been out of work an awful long time, he said on Monday night football that he cant wait to get back and is waiting for the right project, or is that just crazy talk.

Dream scenario and not beyond the realms of possibility if this gets done by January.

Tbf there hasn't been that many top jobs come up since he was sacked by Spurs. Barca seemed adamant they were going for Koeman and he was never going to Arsenal from Spurs.

Poch was Barcelona’s first choice, but he didn’t want to go there because of Espanyol history

 

With the elections being next year - Barca couldn’t get a long term appointment in case the new president came in and wanted his own man/project (Xavi), then you have a load of compo to pay a whole coaching team
