    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    Anyone and everyone. Seems to be a concerted effort to advertise the fact that we are in the shit and maybe someone somewhere will come snooping around.... The club has no long term commitments - no manager contract, no stadium contract, no debts apart from to Joy's clients, no long term player...

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    ]What publicity and discussion though# articles in the Guardian, MPs discussing our plight, TV pundits discussing our plight, ex players and managers chipping in, Simon's book telling of our plight, the Trust asking for talks on a possible bid, us discussing it, other football fans discussing...

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    They would have had to show their hand before the talks ( if there were to be any granted ) were under way. Not the best starting point in negotiations. We both differ on this, but fair enough.

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    I think her staff got her company involved in a loss making image damaging project in an area she/ her company knew nothing about. They didn't do proper due diligence and she is stuck with it. Under those circumstances, I can only speculate that she would love to either be bought out for a -...

    Speak to Venus tonight - CWR Phone In

    In any serious attempt to buy CCFC the problem of security of tenure would have to be addressed beforehand. We saw what happened with SISU. Their biggest mistake was not negotiating with ACL before buying the club. No point in buying until you either have a deal with ACL ( owned by Wasps ) or...

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    What is there to consult about? They have not spoken to JS ( she knocked them back ). Should the members vote on whether they ask if the club is for sale? I thought the idea of a trust is for the fans to have some form of representation or even some share of ownership. They seem to be doing...

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    Comes under the category 'worth a try'... plus the publicity and the discussion may just reach the ears of someone mad enough to join in with English football and take a punt...

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    Not disagreeing with you. Of course she will sell... just a question of how much. She says I don't want to sell. Someone has to come and say I'll give you, say, 10 million and then she says not enough, but come and look at books showing how well we are progressing....

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    Fishing exercise... this whole thing is to flush her out... we/ they want a figure - any figure - which would mean she wants to sell. Then perhaps someone who wants to buy will come out of the woodwork... she is cute enough to see this and repeats not for sale... she is waiting for a sensible bid...

    When is a takeover, not a takeover

    No. I thought I saw it expressly said 'there has been no bid' in the report. They wanted preliminary talks to test the water. Maybe they would bid if they had an idea what Joy wanted.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It takes some denial to miss these things. Let's see what comes out with the attack on the Polish shop in Cov. Maybe nothing to do with hate crimes- but in this atmosphere the thought springs to mind.

    you mean by replying to racism..? One Brit replying to another Brit who is being derogatory to someone he thinks is inferior because of race?

    Then that is is good news for me as I sometimes sell a couple of jars. Thank god for brexit.... Plus my daughter is in the uk for a year - her pocket money has gained in value.... I will visit the uk more often now..... So, I am ok. Earn in Euro and spend in GBP. Still think Brexit is wank for...

    I still think the woman was a c**t, if that's what you mean. I hope that next time something like that happens I am able to tell whoever it is to fuck off.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Reporting a snooty woman in Christchurch would'nt help - there are enough of them. I said it was harmless and I would have told her more or less politely to fuck off. End of story. The point was, people never said anything whilst passing my German reg car before brexit. It is now relevant that I...

    What's wrong with being proud and self-governing? ( To continue King of Kings argument for Brexit ).
