RepressedRoyal Good to see this thread concentrating on the concerns regarding the takeover rather than unwarranted personal abuse.


Fordham says Madejski is still confident this will go through this week. Hope so. Just to stop all the whinging at least.

Royal Lady Well done.

I don't like the inference that Dirk "has his hand up my arsehole" baggy or otherwise to be fair. Nor do I like the insinuation that I am his "puppet" - still, if anything goes - I'll be sure to say exactly what I think about a few people on here in the future - no holds barred....


I'm sure we're all quaking in fear / shivering in eager anticipation.

How many more times are we going to be told its going through next week?

They have been saying that for the past 3 weeks. I just can't see someone at the Football league saying "yes, it will next week" and then "sorry guv, it'll be next week now" and then "you know how it is? Can't get the staff. Next week, boss!"

So if this "next week" nonsense must be coming from within the club.

It's the 3rd week now.

As March past they said there was a delay. And then since the 5th April they've been saying it would hopefully go through next week?

SJM thinks it can go through this week. He said a couple of weeks last week.

Just to throw it in there, what if some even bigger buyer has come in, now we're in the prem and offered a better deal? I know Madj said a deals a deal but thats a deal to Anton. Gazumping is another ball game. We're a better prospect now

Could be taking time to hear a mystery buyer out.

Just a thought.

Are you sure?

The only time I've hear Mr Mad or Anton say 'next week' was last week. And there's still 3 and a half days to go in this week.

17th April he said it could be done in the next week or two. Stop stirring the pot. You weren't very good at it last time.

It probably takes about a week to fill brown envelopes with reasons why TSI are a sound business model for the club and hand deliver it to each of the FL and PL investigators

So RL is taking someone to court coz they suggested Dirk tells her what to post :|

Even more absurd than that is that she's taking Jay to court. What sort of payout can you be expecting :?: :|

I'm not taking anyone to court you fukktard. I've never said I was. I also know who Muguire was - note he's not posting any more? And it wasn't Jay. At all.

"Important" looking people i spoke to on Saturday (did i mention i was in hospitality) that work at the club reckon the deal is sound and all the rumours about it falling through are just paper/radio talk. The issue is its only Anton and there are no other investors, so the FL/PL are making sure he can put the money where his mouth is.

Or something along those lines
