New Takeover Information - Don't Shoot!

Just read something that I am passing on, I cannot verify it:

TOMA (from MOTforum.com, which came from somewhere else) Just passing this along on this glorious Saturday.

From the poster @Mighty Kippax

"I have been watching the developments with interest, without adding anything.

As some of you will know on here, I deal with some of the major law firms as a matter of course in my working life. Some will also know that I have not been to many games within the Italian crooks regime.

However, today is a day of two major steps in the right direction, for the last 2 days Bird and Bird have had a data room open with a team of completion lawyers trying to push a deal to close, there is a consortium in place, with a name well known to most businessmen in gods own county, and a significant investor backing the deal. From what I understand this is a game changer, and if it goes through will change the club for the better.

There is no Chinese involvement.

the second step forward is expect a statement from GFHC very soon, which will lift the lid on some dealings with KWB and Davie boy.

interesting times ahead.

And for those that may be sceptical, I am a family man in my 40s with no need to bs. I love this club as much as the majority of you. I will only post when I know something of genuine worth."

The thing is - if the Chinese really want us they will get us.

The Italian led group is worth about 6billion plus.

The group I know about has one guy worth more than 28billion on his own.

It all depends on how far they will go to secure one of the few fallen giants still available.

My clients were in talks to buy the club less than three months ago. Local businessmen with significant funds behind them. Not, however, custodians of a war chest that would truly put us amongst the footballing elite.

If this is true, there will be a lot of worried fans in Italy.

Stick around Massimo why not sell us and buy Bradford or someone

"It is not likely he would viable be able to run two clubs successfully." No sh*t Sherlock! He is unable to even run one club successfully

Stevie, does the description and "facts" in my article fit your client?

Sorry JLA, been busy and not catching up on here as much as I should.

In the main yes but I'm not sure that they have continued that interest as it stands today. There is, however, another would-be investor not far away...

No worries.

Fun times!
