Will the sun ever rise on the Brittas Empire?
I've opened this thread as a favour to Senor Domingos. The weight of two years of ownership has crippled him.
If both Iles and the Times are proclaiming it, it must be true.
Welcome to our new overlords - Football Ventures (Whites), or is that Future Versions (Whites); take me to your leaders: Basran, Brittan, James and Thomas. May ye have cash to spread like muck...

Re: The sun never sets on the Brittas Empire.
Cheers, mate. Suddenly, a weight is lifted from my shoulders.
By all accounts, this thread has at least two years in it. As of today, we are in Div One with minus 12 points and an unknown penalty yet to come for failing to play Brentford (elsewhere, I've predicted the outcome will be an award of plus one point). I will look back in two years' time and think, "That was a dark period. Who'd have thought we'd have been promoted to the Prem with 100 points and 100 goals less than twenty four months later?" Probably.

Re: The sun never sets on the Brittas Empire.
From what I understand from one of the "to be" directors (via a mate) - everything was still looking fine at 09:50 yesterday. Can't speak for "since then" obvs.Lost Leopard Spot wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2019 1:52 pmAnother 48 hours?

Re: The sun never sets on the Brittas Empire.
Well my fear isn't that Bassini is involved (coz he isn't - he's just a tw@t). My fear is that Shazza&Co isn't as up front as everybody is hoping for...Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2019 3:07 pmIt wouldn't take long - he doesn't strike me as the type to go to ground... just follow the incessant honking and parping...Worthy4England wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2019 3:03 pmI suspect you'd just be able to join the queue like the rest of us!Bruce Rioja wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2019 3:01 pmIf this has anything to do with Bassini, I will track the c*nt down....
So instead of getting the full seven-sticklebackssini, you get a meagre three-point-sticklebackshazza.

I've absolutely no evidence for it, but I reckon today will be the day the new owners are officially announced.

Joint 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.

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.
