Who's going to buy a team without a stadium?...End of Story.......Thanks Ann Lucas....

Never thought I'd say this but I think the lack of a stadium is the least of the club's problems right now?

Besides which having a fancy new stadium (ten miles outside of town) didn't do Bolton Wanderers much good did it?

He did say that they'd heard the rumours floating around. I must say when I heard it on CWR today it was the first I'd heard of it and given the amount of "it's all very well getting SISU to sell but who's going to buy it" responses on the SISU petition thread it doesn't sound like I'm the only one on here hearing it for the first time today.

So where exactly have these rumours been floating around?

You do realise you can disagree with somebody about one thing and then agree with them about others don't you?

It's almost as if you want people to be at each other's necks, as a large percentage of your posts on here are in this thread.

It's very weird, you are talking as if nothing else gets discussed on here.

Moaning about not sticking together, but this thread is about the only one where people aren't bickering.

SL (to American caller) : I've heard a rumour that some of your American business are looking at some of the British sports clubs. You live out there, can you see them buying CCFC?

American Caller: No, they're business men.

If this is where the rumour started then we're all wasting our time here.

Yes basically it was, didn't take a lot of notice at the time but strange question if you think about it bit of an odd one big place America so why ask a random caller coincidently phoning from the U.S. had he heard anything and the answer "no they are business men" also a strange answer imo

What was weird is that the bloke from America openly admitted he had no idea about the team etc.

I hate to spoil the party but aren't the Americans already here? I thought they arrived eight or nine years ago?

Mind you that would be about right for Linnell and CWR to pick up on a rumour.

Let's be pragmatic and logical, because if we give in to emotions, we'll only be depressed.

Given the context of SL's conversation, there is no American buyer. Rumours are rumours, and this is a complete Chinese Whisper.

If the club is saved, fair enough, but don't get your hopes up regarding this very tenuous 'rumour'.

I suspect that the call from America was a convenient excuse to let the rumour out the bag. Still believe it when I see it.

That puts a different slant on things! However looking at the other thread about SISU being in financial poo it would make sense Brodey turning up for the last few weeks as he is worried about his investment

Do you purposely mention Cadbury's because this news filtering through is very flakey?
