  1. thanks for that, still no clearer when we will have the srtress end, but at least we are bing kept informed.
  2. will you say the same of MLT/TL if they fail? If MLT was not fronting Pinnalce (and I have every faith in him) I suggest that bid would be looking a bit odd. It is the first takeover that i can recall where nobody knew who was behind it.If it was Pompey we'd be saying 'dodgy', it is the fact that MLT is there than has made us feel more secure of it. MJ is almost certainly all talk but as i say if the other bids fail we have to hope he has got it right this time.
  3. that is why the club is a bargain investment and so i cant see why there is not more interest. If we got pormoted the investment will get better. Pinacle are hoping for the golden goose and a big crop of eggs in its first batch IMO We should make the play offs even with a minus 10, if the squad is strengthened in the right areas.
  4. your eyesight playing up again MB? I always run to the car to avoid the traffic. I think the person who I spoke with was quite perturbed that there was nothing coming out. In some ways it should be quiet as nothing will happen until the league make their decision.Unless a rival consortuium just pays up and signs immediately no questions asked.That is obviously highly unlikely
  5. the nonsense of playing a batsman wickie does my head in. A piece of magic by a keeper changes games. prior is never likely to do that and he is hardly a consistant bat and not international standard IMO. Foster may not be a great bat but say he scores 15 runs against a 30-40 that prior gets so a negative of perhaps 15-25 an innings (an inexact science of course) but snaffles up Ponting then he is well in credit. To play Prior is the same stupid English thinking that had Geoff Thomas picked ahead of MLT all those years ago.
  6. well there is no news running down the corridors of the club at present.
  7. I have been assured by people he is a fantacist. Whether he is we wont know for sure unless he is asked to come up with the goods. Fry may just be using him to give others the hurry up, but if Pinnalce and the Swiss do not come forward we have to hope he is indeed the real deal.I dont think we can afford to say the fans dont want him here, beggars cannot be choosers.
  8. i dont think we have any sympathy elsewhere, I also know that people are not at all happy that Stockport have got away with no real penalty to them going into admin.
  9. no idea, they make the rules up as they go. By the time they've gone to the old boys club had a few whiskies, then a long lunch they might finally get around to work some time later today.
  10. Im not qualified for certain but that is the way i see it. Blue square is in a meltdown scenario
  11. Health and safety will be worried as they could take her eyes out.
  12. thats a new name I dont think has been suggested before
  13. very good and reasoned letter Bletch
  14. It is a case if Pinnacle or any other does not complete we liquidate, then we will be demoted into the Blue square, it has been reported so elsewhere.I cannot believe the complacency about how dangerous times we are in. I am just as much to blame as any other in thinking we will be OK somebody will take us on.
  15. is this not a restriction of trade and so that is an angle to aim at.
  16. that is a very good idea, not sure of all the angles for and against though
  17. I accept your point but if you look at Formula 1 did they not go to court about the rules(?), and that is run in a similar way?
  18. which teams? The team who finished 3rd/4th or who lost in the play off finals. The fixtures have been arranged and fopr many teams accomadation and other plans would have been sorted. I agree it could be sim0ple but not for the administrators of the leagues and clubs
  19. Lol
  20. I assume they dont have to have anyone play the games but just free dates on those days for teams who play us.There will be an extra promotion this season .As for us joining the Blue squre , well i dont know if it is too late as the fixtures are sorted and you cant have lots of teams being promoted up at this late stage. it is a mess.
  21. Two things i doubt when the Echo contacted him it was known that it was a case of the -10 and the FL. I spoke to my friend who is part of the Bournemouth takeover and he was not too impressed by MJ and was very dismissive of his ability to come up with the goods.
  22. Reading that LC may have paid the deposit makes me wonder if DP was right when he posted the above on the 'who is he' thread , and that the 'moneyman' was not nailed on at the time when Pinnacle came forward.
  23. I thought TL sadi several hundred million.To me that is about 300 m
  24. If it is Dan Williams whats the problem? He is wealthy as far as I recall and just as he comes on a forum doesnt matter surely?
