Wullie Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 There could be a huge eruption at any time. But things may remain dormant for several years. I'm looking forward to finding out what these geysers are up to. Blatently stolen from .com. I hadn't actually. Bah! Bastards have stolen my thunder. > I'm still claiming the gag though.

Guest Alfie Romeo Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Just now in Icelandic media: Icelandic takeover bid rejected by duo Reports from yesterday linking Icelandic business tycoons, Jon Asgeir Johannesson and Palmi Haraldsson, with a bid to buy english premiership club Newcastle has been rejected by spokesmen from both camps. Johannesson's spokesman made a statement on the matter this evening: "Jon Asgeir is not involved in any bid to buy an English football team. In fact, he is not a fan of football. We would like to take this opportunity and deny any involvement with any bid." Meanwhile Haraldsson's spokesman also denied the story: "Haraldsson is not in the country at the moment but I can confirm that he is not interested in aquiring a football team."

James Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Icelandic media probably heard it from what they thought was a craggy rock in one of their springs, but what was actually famed naturist Alan Oliver doing backstroke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Heartbroken. If it went through I was hoping to start a 'The Iceman Bummeth?' thread, full of random and senseless speculation that they were only buying us to rape our resources. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Alfie Romeo Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Very confusing because after the duo denied making a bid, former Bolton defender Gudni Bergsson, comes on TV and says he's on route become Sam Allardyces assistant manager but only if the Icelanders take over the club, which they have denied. Unbelieveble. In Icelandic: http://www.visir.is/article/20070820/FRETTIR01/70820114/-1/frontpage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
