The narrative seems to have changed because we ain’t heard nothing since so the people saying we was having new owners will go quiet and have gone quiet as of late.. really disappointed and will be even more so as I genuinely believed it all and at this moment it’s was all guess work.

I’m actually surprised at your post, but it is your prerogative to hold that view, no matter how wide of the mark you are! :thumbup:

Things will be a little/lot clearer after these meetings tomorrow, and we will have some substance (positive or negative) to talk about

IF, at any time, it transpires that my (IMHO) impeccable source(s) have got it wrong, I will hold my hands up and apologise

I don’t believe that will happen, so that only leaves you and the others who believe ‘nothing is happening’ to apologise, if it is you that are wrong

I stand by my words and we’ll see what transpires tomorrow and in the near future! :ayatollah:


Very wide off the mark Sven.




Wide of mark because dalman said no bids were made when you know Bale made bid publically ? Who was lying dalman or Bale?
If dalman said no bids which is clearly a lie what else did he lie about? S Africa maybe??


Dalman said "no official bids". What the difference between official and Bales media comments I don't know. Dalman is an expert in playing words.



Apparently can only be an official bid if parties making bid show their financial statements from banks .....buisnesses .... ect ect guess sending letter of intent to offer 40m or whatever bales was doesn’t constitute a bid.


You can quite easily find out if funds are there. Tan would have known if these consortiums had the funds without doing a DD. DD would just confirm what he already knew.

Sounds like Dalman is playing with words to pull the wool over the fans eyes.

Yes there isn't any need to want the information he stated as efl have the same kind of procedures built into fit proper person ... he was making excuses why they didn't take bids seriously ... ut I am having serious doubts tan will sell... his ego wants another promotion and what Colwill said as given him hope for this season. This why said consortium s need to meet tan at least 90% of his demands to try get him to let go.... pointless saying not worth that to him it is.

It was my hunch that he would end up selling.

That's why I made the video.

I'm gutted.

Hopefully the South Africans will come in with a mega bid and we can move on. I doubt Tan will go for it though.

I wonder if Dalman is trying to derail the other two bids as he wants to take over the club?

Tan out.
