Stuarts hinting at news tomorrow on twitter. Any one know what it is or whether he's just speculating due to the Hoffman meeting scheduled. Can't imagine it's a new player so likely to be admin, embargo or investment.
Any guesses?

Carsley is going to play, abandoning the academy as it is essentially the first team squad and we have signed a goalkeeper on loan as cover...

How sad are we ? No money for players and a manager in place because he was under contract and we couldn't afford to pay him off.

Got nothing to spend on players and loaning out others to get them off the payroll.

There will be no buy out ....... nobody is daft enough !!!

It will be either "Sisu have met with Gary Hoffman and his consortium" or "Sisu's meeting with Gary Hoffman has been postponed".

We all know what press / radio is like in Cov when it comes to big announcements!

And even if the meeting does go ahead, they wont shake on in tomorrow and they certainly wont make the details public!

If the news is of no real consequence, then i didnt see the point of Stuart Linnell tweeting it at all.

I'm sick and tired of unfounded speculation.

All i know is that our club needs change and it needs it soon.

Man utd were apparently keen on the deal, but decided against it when seeing the offer was not on headed paper.

If some sort of deal isn't thrashed out tomorrow administration will follow Monday. Apparently someone owed a few bob is pulling the rug away and demanding payment. That's the word in the press rooms apparently.

From linells twitter a couple of hours ago:

SSGL @NickFessi @o_marion11 @TroyCollins3 as I've already said, nothing hugely exciting, but worth listening to with @BBCShaneonair at breakfast
about 2 hours ago

I used to like Linnell as he always has/had City at heart and he seemed to share some good knowledge. However, in these days of Twitter he is an annoying cock. Likes to think he's in the know and pretends to offer snippets of news for his own self publicism so that he occasionally gets some things right and can say "I had inside knowledge and told you first".

He reminds me of the old tramp tipsters you used to get at the races who tell about five different people a secret horse to win the race - all different of course but tells you when it's won to buy him a drink and it doesn't matter to him whowins as he still gets his drink and someone thinks he is in the know.

Stuart Linnell is a lifelong City fan, who would and does share any snippets of info with his fellow supporters.

He is an extremely humble and approachable chap who actually cares for our city and our club.

In what way does this warrant him being described as above?

6 Generations, you're absolutely right. The gutter mentality of some posters on here is unbelievable. They drag the club through the mud everytime they speak.

I can't see how they can say "Tune in for some news". The same news that has been on forums for the past few days? May as well just say "go on SBT or GMK for the latest news"
