The Takeover Thread - Recon Group - NOW WITH NEW POLL

[DrGonzo]

 I can't find any quotes, anywhere.  Except for blogs and social media so am not getting my hopes up. 

[Tokyo Sexwhale]

Its a job for Toronto Villa to watch the CNN news see if all made up or not.

I have no idea who CNN in Canada is. There is CN Rail but I will call massive bullshit that they would be at all interested in owning a football club or be involved with any other sports operation.

Apparently on CNN News Canada its been said Harris & Blitzer in advanced talks for $300m and has been said on air over in Canada

Rolf Harris and Wolf Blitzer? 

[Brend'Watkins]

Blitzer is a director of United Biscuits.  Just goes to show TBAR were on to something all along.

[RussellC]

Amended.

Gaga has shed further tranches. She is being advised by Elton John and HDE. SGT as DOF. Keano and Patrick V joint managers.

I don't think he means that CNN would be looking to buy us. I think he means that they are reporting that somebody might be looking to buy us.

there is no such thing as CNN Canada

[Richard E]

The original message did say that his mate was in Canada watching CNN which is plausible as he could be watching US TV. Still has a whiff about it though.

[Toronto Villa]

Yes that is more likely the case.

Either way it would be good to have some substance to the takeover story

[paul_e]

The CNN website has fuck all about it, I can't imagine they'd run a story on their TV channel and not have it on the website, sounds like bullshit to me.

I'm not saying the link is rubbish, just the idea that someone saw a report about it on CNN.

Like previous links those names are of the sort that you'd make an educated guess at, could be legit could be 2+2=5

I assume that it is possible to watch CNN in Canada isn't it?

You can certainly watch it in the UK.

yes, what I meant was there is not a dedicated CNN Canada network. We just get the US feed. I believe though there is a UK version or at the very least it is not the US version. I know that they have CNN networks more specific to other parts of the world.

But what about the story about Rolf Harris and his reindeer buying the Villa?

Rolf was looking to buy David Villa love. Unfortunately some team in New York pipped him to it.

Thanks, treasure. Knew I'd got something confused.

Since 'The Railway Men' as a nickname is already taken by Crewe, I also call massive bullshit.

That and the fact that the federal government in Canada is shit broke...
