Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Earnshaw all but confirming it now and expects a statement today from the club/Dai/Willy Wonka.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Just taken a look at Wycombe's last accounts and to be honest this does not make sense if the purchase is over £20m as rumoured. They only file accounts for a "small business", they have tangible fixed assets of £1.1m, £1.3 of long term creditors, and total equity of minus £1.5m. Now I be...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Twitter now going with the "fact" this deal has been done for a couple of weeks but agreed it wouldn't be announced until after the game at the weekend. Given the possibility of sale was only announced on Sunday and we find out it has been sold yesterday, that all makes perfect sense. Noth...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I would imagine it isn't being bought by Wycombe but the owner via one of his investment companies. He is on record as saying he wants to sell Wycombe in 3 or 4 years, and having a state of the art training ground bought under market value will boost the value he could get - esp if it helps them ge...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Bucks Free Press reporting a statement due shortly - so yeah, all done, as unlikely to be a "we don't what you are talking about" type of statement.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Interested to know how Wycombe can afford the facility and upkeep. Doesn’t that much sense to me really. They don’t have a proper academy or a women’s teams. Or an u21 team at any sort of level afaik I would imagine it isn't being bought by Wycombe but the owner via one of his investment companies....

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

That’s it for me we’re dead. The only shed of light I can see is we share the training ground with Wycombe and maybe Dai sells the club and stadium for next to nothing. I want to hear something official from the club and there needs to be an announcement today. Hasn't the main interested party just...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Most positive reading of this is as follows - I don't believe this for a moment but anyway: Reports by Bucks Free Press put the sale at 22m. Club sees all of this - I know, I know. Immediate cashflow problems are gone - not sure how long 22m lasts but lets say that covers next season as well even wi...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Whilst it's not great news to hear, we don't know if this group was anywhere near a deal. Are they the front runners? Or one of the other groups. Why does the announcement make them walk away? Is it the potential sale, or simply not trusting Dai now? Could it just be cover as they know they won't su...

Not sure this angle of the "foul" has been posted yet. Ouch.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

The thing is, if your default is to simply clear the ball whenever things get tricky, you never keep possession, spend 90 minutes defending and normally lose. So defenders need to take risks playing out. It didn't work out this time, but it wouldn't have been a costly error without a howler of a re...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

And the Saudis only seem interested in high profile sports, so Reading would be an odd choice. Yeah, this is what's puzzling me. Its not like we're a Championship side on the brink of the Premier League so why the interest. But then again I think that about anyone supposedly interested in buying us...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

However, in both cases a Reading player probably made a poor decision to find themselves in a situation where a poor decision could be made by the ref. How is Yids not tripping Gayle a poor decision? For his 2nd yellow, he tried to turn his way out of trouble when surrounded by Derby players - ball...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

If the tweet from Eddie turns out to be true - and he usually has decent sources then whilst I would not be happy to be a front for Saudi money, it means we still have our club and the likelihood that we will actually be able to be a steady ship. They obviously won't be able to go and spend like cra...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

Of course it’s nothing like a penalty but being generous to the ref, seeing Gayle handball it might have been difficult. Though I’d have thought the first conclusion would have been Perreira got to the ball first which again wouldn’t have been a pen Proper cheating from Gayle though - punch the bal...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

Looked like handball immediately to me whilst watching & Gayle's OTT celebration backed that up. He knew he had been clever and got away with one. The only defence you can give a ref is that the angle he had hid the handball & so he just saw a collision caused by an onrushing keeper. If so, ...

Uke Are we not at the "Mike Ashley" stage yet? The one where he comes in a buys everything for 30p?


The seller would have to be willing to sell it for 30p for that to happen. No sign of that at the mo.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

As has been pointed out on a number of occasions by others, there is limited development potential at the training ground because of protection orders and listed status. Not sure you'd get anything near £30m for the ground either. As a functioning stadium maybe but I don't think the land is worth t...
