Heaven forbid there should be a prompt resolution, barnet.

I mean, you could argue that Appleton is saying both HoT and completion next week, but I think not. Even so, no stunning shock if it drags on further.We are very close to finalising the Heads of Terms agreement and are working towards a completion date of next week.

Managers, players, fixtures... we'd manage
Ooh, I've fancied being a private dick ever since watching the HBO series Bored to Death, which has one of my favourite comic characters of all time: Ted Danson's peerless George Christopher. Very highly recommended...Lost Leopard Spot wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 11:40 amCheers DSB. I have an opening at Sam Spade Investigations if you send me your CV.

Re: The sun never sets on the Brittas Empire.
Well, they'll need to get a wriggle on as time's becoming increasingly of the essence. We need to assemble a squad, train, play friendlies, sell season tickets. One hope's that stuff's happening behind the scenes and we'll be good to go soon after. However, this is Bolton Wanderers.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 11:34 amJoint administrator Paul Appleton did indeed say next week, but about completion rather than Heads of Terms, identity revelation, open-top bus etc.Lost Leopard Spot wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 11:28 amBut they said next week.

If I wanted to look like I was in the know, but I wasn't, then that is precisely the wording I should come out with. Meaningless.

Some of us can't see that, Lazy Bones. What does it say?

Bolton. I'm making stuff up.
Nah, actually it says:
Bolton. There’s a reason for hold up with Football Ventures deal. Not for public domain. If it’s not done on schedule then there’s a problem. Not the case just now.

Re: The sun never sets on the Brittas Empire.
I guess time will tell. He posted 5 people had paid wedge to see the books - that was probably correct at the time he posted it (although there appears to be 6 in total at the end)...He's also posted there's nothing in the "Dutch" rumour (as have a couple of other people) - so I guess we'll see about that too. I only posted it on here because it's relevant to the thread. People can make their own minds up as to its validity (as indeed you have ).

Re: The sun never sets on the Brittas Empire.
I wasn't having a go in the slightest. I welcome information. I have indeed made my mind up on its validity, and shared that view. But, to repeat and expand, I thank you for bringing me Nixon's tweets to a wider public (even if that was just me. I've got no idea why Bruce can't read what was WRIT LARGE on my screen... )Worthy4England wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 1:14 pmI guess time will tell.

It might be tomorrow. Or another day.

Currently sailing south east of Pitcairn... Trying to find a spot the sun don't shine on, before The Big Reveal.
