The Takeover Thread - Recon Group - NOW WITH NEW POLL

[levico]

A word of caution - TBAR are getting excited.

That usually means that nothing is happening.

[The Laughing Policeman]

If Admin has awoken from his slumbers something must be happening.

Have they just discovered Aldi? Cheap biscuits.

Just had a look. They really are like a bunch of meth addicts. Laying low and hiding from the world until enough of them hear the word 'takeover' and then they're up and at it, talking the same old shit they talked last time and the time before that.

There are still some of them going on about Larry effing Ellison.

Having said that, I did enjoy the friendly atmosphere and lively banter.

Forgive me if I don't put £1,000 on us to win the 2019 Champions League just yet.

[Villa in Denmark]

If Admin has awoken from his slumbers something must be happening.

Yes.


He's run out of Diazepam.

[Lastfootstamper]

Some sensible git's piled in over there now and proper put a downer on things.

[KevinGage]

Rolling like thunder, pulling himself asunder.

[frank black]

Just had a quick browse on TBAR, blimey they can turn a ripple into a wave can't they.

It a done deal apparently.

[pauliewalnuts]

Is anyone else finding themselves emotionally "over" this entire takeover thing?

It seems like we've been talking about this for years now. In fact we have. First post on this thread over two years ago, and here we are, still in the hands of Lerner, still not taken-over.

I appreciate there has been more talk about it recently, but I still have this "heard it all before" feeling about the whole thing.

[aj2k77]

I'm fully prepared for it to not happen again and us start a season against Burton with Bacuna and Westwood our centre mid partnership. Anything other than that will be a pleasant surprise I'm hoping for.

[olaftab]

Is it possible, because of previous relationship ,that our new owners could be Genting.

It would be a gamble.

what about 32 red then

That's deftabet suggestion.

[olaftab]

Any man daring to take us on must not chop us into bits.

just half watched a piece on the news about how the Chinese are massively expanding participation in football, so maybe this latest rumour might have some truth to it?

I saw another piece on Central News saying that a number of prominent Chinese business leaders will be visiting Birmingham in a few weeks to discuss development opportunities, particularly around the proposed HS2 site. 

At the risk of putting 2+2 together and getting 569, could there be a possible link?

My mates a steward and was saying there was a delegation of Chinese there.
Again, could be  2+2=568
