Meat can be a bit dry, but goes down well at Christmas.

Was told today, by two different sources, that the deal has been done, but the new owner doesn't want it announced until after the window is shut so as not to have clubs inflate their transfers.
The players coming in are being funded by the new owner.

Might be BS, but worth posting. We'll see at midnight tomorrow  :)

This is what we want - exciting rumours!

Funded by the new owner?  If that's true he's even more frugal than Randy seeing as we've spent £7m so far.

I bet Randy won't have us up for sale when we win the league
He'll be having Champions 2014/15 tatooed on his leg and basking in reflected glory with his Yankee Doodle mates rather than bunking up with his shumanite women friends

Only a matter of time

I giggled. Well played.

Precisely, and that is the obvious hole in the rumour.

OMG, hang on, a minute, it couldn't ... could it ....

I saw HDE yesterday behind the wheel of AV1, I thought he'd packed up driving himself.
