Probably best to wait and see the details as more of it comes out. Hopefully someone who has a passion for the club and the means to fund real progression.

Imagine if it isn't actually Mike Ashley but is this fella who is the prefered bidder.

Unfortunately, it's not... this has blindsided the Council ....I think.... not sure what effect this is going to have..
The statement about bidding for the stadium has thrown the cat amongst the pigeons...
Wonder how big his chopper is!!?

First got to try and keep Gyokeres, Hamer, O’Hare and Robins…hope he has money left after that.
A total surprise.
Hope this guy can work with Ashley if the latter does get the stadium.

Well this a fucking curve ball. I don’t know how I should feel right now but il tell you one thing I have goosebumps!

where does this leave the Ashley rumours with him supposedly being the preferred bidder and the 1.2mil he supposedly paid to keep the ground operational for the past 2 weeks…

So is this Joy bringing in someone to be the acceptable face of a SISU play for the arena?

I have serious doubts that this guy is either a) independently wealthy enough to do everything needed here at CCFC or b) fully independent of SISU.

Fucking.

Hell.

I've been worried about my concentration levels at work the last couple of weeks. As I'm playing football tonight, I'm going to have about 50 pages to catch up on tomorrow!

Is it 1st April???

Initially buzzing but already spider fences tingling.

Agreed a deal - so not completed one?
Coming out the day before the admin court case?
Talking about bidding for the stadium?
Initially debt free?

Not sure what's happening

85% as against 50/50 makes me think no stadium move

Now whether he's a vehicle for others who knows?
