He is a big whale (gambler) and is looked after in Vegas by one of our guys at The Wynn and a few weeks back he mailed xxxx  to say that Jimmy Haslem had told him, he had been offered to buy the Villans for $280million and was thinking it over but thought it was overpriced.  He won $6million that weekend, so has a few pounds to spend.  His Dad Jimmy snr, purchased The Browns from Mr Learner for over $1 billion (the press say $600 million but it wasn’t) two years ago. 

Had this referring to Jimmy Haslem and can tell you absolutely no truth in it , yet this is how things start and suddenly it's 100 percent cosher ! But it's crap !

Brilliant!! Haslem is being investigated by the FBI currently isnt he?

Your post yesterday was pretty sombre, especially the suggesiton the reality was a lot less exciting than the fiction - I take this we can rule out any mega rich buyer...

Listen lads, it's in it's final stages.

We're going to be very happy and the window is going to be sensational.

Spoke to source this morning, said its 99% done.

Who's your source , Clarence Beeks.

This is as far as we go. No more cockamamie cigar smoke. No more Swedish meatballs there, tootsie. And no more phony Irish whiskey. No more goddamn jerky beef! The party's over.

Sorry but I can not take people seriously if they spell Kosher  as cosher. It's never halal when done that way!

How many 'MYSTERMAN', err men are there? I seem to remember one being hopelessly wrong with the appointment of Mcleish but there seem to be a few about. Or is it like a Dr Who type thing where they keep regenerating or whatever it's called? Or perhaps the version of Frankie Goes To Hollywood that contained no original members of the band?

I would pay good money to watch that film.

It's franchise for up-and-coming bullshitters.

I'd like to think RL has it all in hand, that he's merely tying up a few loose ends and that six week turnaround time mentioned is accurate.

But then I think about:

-the farce of interviewing about 25 managers (including some real numpties) after O'Neill flounced out

-Faulkner writing a beautifully handwritten letter to David Whelan, asking permission to speak to Roberto Martinez the following year
before even ascertaining whether Martinez would actually want the job

-Appointing Alex McLeish

Particularly the last one.  If they can do that, they can do anything. 

Yeah I said that last night. After appointing 'eck anything shambolic is possible.

See, it's the highest honour they can give you. It means you belong to a family and crew. It means that nobody can fuck around with you. It also means you could fuck around with anybody just as long as they aren't also a Founding Father. It's like a license to steal. It's a license to do anything. As far as Jimmy was concerned with eastie being made, it was like we were all being made. We would now have one of our own as a member.
