actually, i've got one post left (this one). Counting to three is a bit of a challenge for our chin, bless. So, in order... obs - yep. How much would you like to wager? smirkingsaint - no idea. figure if confidentiality was such a big deal he would've asked his nearest and dearest to be more discreet. i got this info completely un-prompted from somone who's not a footie fan but knows i am and assumed i knew. think if you venture out into the forest you'll find this is pretty common knowledge. Dont think for a minute that a leak on here will register so figured i'd pass it on (maybe help with the impatience given the size of the prize)... Soton Joe - all yours mate. not trying to score any points, just thought folk would like to know. you are the ITK king! Chin - assuming the deal completes and the names go public in time, beers on OBS friday?

it's jim ratcliffe, ineos via friend of the ratcliffe family. but you knew that already!

its jim ratcliffe, ineos

it's jim ratcliffe, ineos.

chin - you know the credibility of my source.

btw - it's jim ratcliffe / ineos behind the pinnacle group.

apolocolyptic - like apocolyptic only worse. pre breakfast postings are alwyas bad. remember kids - never type on an empty stomach. i'm off to read the forum handbook to see if i can find out how to edit a post.

Just a thought - do you think Fry's apolocolyptic statement earlier in the week could have been aimed at the creditors rather than the bidders? Plenty of speculation about break up value being less than value of SFC as a going concern - maybe he was signalling to barcalys, aviva etc that they need to get their heads out of their ar5e5 and accept whats on the table (and soon) rather than trying to ratchet more out of the pinnable (or whoever else is out there)?

so looks like the trolls are back. can we have an 'out a PR plant' sticky where suspect posters can be named / shamed? would be good to know who's under suspicion / make it easier to collate any spin as well as being good sport. ps- appreciate my post count probably puts me squarely in the frame for accusation but i'm not. honest.

Yeah, its not too shabby!

exiled in constantia (cape town) til next easter. looks like i picked a good season to miss (first in 32 years without a season ticket). anyone else in cape town?
