[Archived] Rovers Takeover Thread

[T4E]

When it comes to that lot its entirely believable (but I do take your point).

[Guest Vinjay606]

Well Brady and McLeish publicly "made up" in their promotion celebrations apparently.

[DE.]

Doesn't excuse what she did. What could possibly have made her think making fun of McLeish's transfer dealings was a good idea? All it does it get his back up and demoralise the players he brought in (Ulises De La Cruz and Stephen Carr I think).

[Guest Vinjay606]

Of course it dosen't but they seem to have repaired their differences. Birmingham fans can't be too distressed by that.

[DE.]

Nothing but a show for the fans. Bet he still hates her.

I do think he'll be there next season, anyway, and hopefully Brady will keep her opinions to herself in future and let the manager do his work.

Anyway, this is all off topic. I've no more to say on the matter.

Billionaire looking to purchase Betar Jerusalem. I add this link due to the Gaydamak link and it seems unusual someone would purchase an Israel club over a EPL club like Portsmouth.

West Ham could be barred from Europe due to ownership doubts.

More Southampton rumours linking Le Tissier to consortium bid.

Plymouth Argyle plans on hold due to possible takeover (BRFC managers should really have 2 plans going into a new season one with takeover and one without)

You're the last person that should be putting Vinjay on ignore for repeatedly banging on about one subject that no one else cares about!

Edit: Thanks for todays West Ham update, by the way

[Guest Vinjay606]

West Ham United on course for new owners plus calm about meeting license requirements for the Europa league (will need to get used to referring to it as that)

This is somewhat updated from the earlier link.

Mine comes up bold which is a nice touch.

[Ricky]

Mine also comes up in bold. I probably shouldn't have him on ignore being a moderator..... but I'll make an exception for him.

This article makes reference to a rumour about a takeover at Everton while discussing takeovers in general. Anyone (A.Nixon) heard anything about this?

ROVERS takeover thread. Please keep on topic.

[Eddie]

So we should have one thread for Rovers takeover and another for all over takeovers? Surely it makes sense to post other takeovers in here?

[SouthAussieRover]

It's all very well having a person on ignore but is it possible a "fix" can be devised, whereby when another poster quotes them, then you can't read that either?

[Guest Vinjay606]

Considering 1864 Roverite heard about that rumour the other week in the executive area did anyone go executive yesterday? If so did you hear about any further rumours regarding the recent rumour or anything else?

[tony gale's mic]

I heard Warren Buffet was in the director's box.

[Guest Vinjay606]

Recently topped the billionaires list didn't he? Where is Paul Allen placed now as he was reportedly interested (but denied) around the same time as the DW link.

If Buffet is ever in England I hope the club would be so courteous as to offer him a free directors enclosure invitation.

[bob fleming]

I'm sure I saw Carlos Slim Helu walking round to the Darwen End before the match. You know what these billionaires are like, very frugal. You don't make that much money and then not take advantage of the cheap tickets on offer.

[Guest Vinjay606]

The owner of IKEA is somewhat notorious for his frugal attitude.

[philipl]

Warren Buffet was in the dining room, Bill Gates was counting the attendance and Steve Jobs was doing the hiring.

Ingvar Kamprad? He was in The Fox with John Williams before the match having a pint. I wouldn't say he was tight, he got John a pie.

Sorry, I digress, back to the takeover news...

[Guest Vinjay606]

One of the individuals previously interested in a BRFC purchase "sued" over gambling debt. This is about 3 months old but wasn't mentioned on here as I recall.

are you clinically insane vinjay?

[Guest Vinjay606]

I posted the link as many may feel that was a lucky escape. As was the JJB executive link as that individual has also had significant problems recently.
