Don't think we have "a fighting chance" now, so any delay is not going to make much of a difference.

So it would seem this rumour can join the archives of which there have been many

I think you need to be moving slightly further West to look for the money. Try India.

Good idea. Offer SISU 30m Rupee's. Only worth a few quid, but might sound enough for SISU to be tempted

I reckon it's Americans. Really rich ones. Does anyone remember Hoffman saying "These people won't go away"? Well, I believe they may still be there...

Another pointless thread of people claiming to know things then not having the balls to say what it is, just so that when it doesnt happen they dont look stupid. If any real factual information comes to light then great until then its a complete waste of time reading nothing basically.

Why do people get so worked up about this sort of thing? So it's a rumour, so what? If you don't believe it just brush it aside, it's not harming anyone. I personally like to read all the crap going round, it just keeps my days that little bit more interesting!

If it wasn't for these rumours giving us a minute glimmer of hope - however unlikely or impossible. Its these tiny chinks of light that many of us have to cling to because if we really feel that there is no one coming in to buy the club and get these people out of our club then it just becomes all too depressing. The current direction the club is heading is relegation and then a decade of struggle in a lower division - the heady days of the Premiership, of Wembley will fade and the reality is just to horrible to contemplate. These geniuses are ruining a once proud club and any rumour, however made up or unlikely at least gives a brief respite from the gloom that has enveloped our club.

If you were really in the know, you would say "Heung Gong": a little joke there for our Cantonese speaking friends.

I agree, ashbyjan. We Sky Blues are used to getting our hopes dashed, but at least this type of rumour gives us the hope to get dashed! Broken dreams don't hurt anymore - we've had too many, but at least we get to dream with this type of thread

If Asian billionaires did take over, attendances would surely rocket and people might at last be able to stop calling the Ricoh Seoul-less.

Dulieu says something that may be intended to keep spirits high, then it doesn't happen and he is slagged off by almost everyone for building up hopes and then letting us down. But when a few jarred up supporters happen to have a conversation with a guy claiming to be an investor in the casino we should cling on to their every word? And if it doesn't happen at least it kept things interesting?

Funny how when two opposite sides of the spectrum play the same game it's to be acknowledged and supported if it's said by a half cut supporter who is in favour, but not if a successful businessman who isn't.

Dulieu? Successful businessman? Is this the man whose only other Company Capcon - the other company he is chairman of - has just seen its share price fall from 75p to 0p. Effectively gone bust and him removed as Chairman?

Does that imply that Ken Bruce really was scared off by Ken's dodgy tactics then?

thing is tho tango man has lied to us on a fair few occasions now, very little of what he seems to say actually happens.

Hoff and Eliott have been trying to find investors off their own backs and seems like they have found some so they have done what they said they would.

now the hard part of actually getting a takeover done and dusted, coud take a couple of weeks, months or may not happen until we go in to administration.

either way the hoff and co have kept up their side of the bargain so far, finding investors willing to have a go at turning the sinking sky blue ship around.

will sisu's puppet master ken dulieu play ball and actually act properly this time without eves dropping names and sending confidential documentation to the press when all is meant to remain confidential?? time will tell.

Who is the Tango Man? Elliott or Dulieu? Neither appear to be strangers to the sunbed.
