Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

Winston Biscuit Chesterfield, effectively promoted back to the EFL anyway due to goal diff, but 1 point tonight against Halifax would seal it


Nerves clearly got to them last night - turned over 4-2. Will a case of when not if though.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

It would stress me a bit, but some people on here are saying its worse for footballers than a nurse working in the NHS, which is patent nonsense. Has anyone literally said the bit in bold? - may have missed it but that is naturally nonsense. But looking at the players we have on our books at the mo...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

blythspartan The club are plugging the mini season tickets again so it doesn’t bode well.


Err - it would be a massively dysfunctional marketing department if you create an offer and publisize it once and only once. It means nothing beyond marketing.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

So losing half of your income wouldn't leave you feeling a bit stressed GWL? Keeping in mind that the 28 year old footballer probably has 4 or 5 years left of earning well before their career ends. I doubt many lower league players waltz into lucrative salaries after they retire just as the rest of...

Agree, it must have put his petrol bill up by a fair amount having to travel the extra distance from Wycombe to Bearwood. Bleeding for her, as we all must be at this difficult time. Really 72?

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Events off the pitch will be be what they'll be. Just need as to get as many points on the table as possible from the remaining games. Remaining a League One club for next season is all that matters. That's a huge unwanted pressure on the players and the footballing staff. Remaining a club is all t...

a lot of ITK twitter accounts that previously told us an announcement was coming this week are now suddenly ITK that it will take another 6-8 weeks :lol: How funny and how predictable. The sad thing is not the fake ITK fantasists craving clicks and replies it’s the grown adults who fall for it This...

Re: The Academy/Development squads watch thread 2015//16

There are 26 teams in Premier League 2. Assuming that flashscore is right, Reading have the best home record with 23 points from 9 games. We also have the worst away record, 4 points from 7 games (could get off bottom spot by winning an away game in hand, but that doesn't seem likely). The even odd...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

While he didn't give away specifics, my interpersonal of his comments is that this Sports.com bid hasn't provided proof and funding and isn't the one. I suspect that Chiron Sports Group, which has involvement with a previous Charlton director, is the front runner. Howe has been saying that there wa...

According to Howe a deal is a long way off. Yet again we get our hopes up for nothing. https://twitter.com/RFCLatest A deal as in a completed deal was never going to be done this week - any deal was always going to be exlusivity but that is a massive deal in our situation. I've always taken any acc...

Earnshaw tweeting that there are no meetings today, understands the offers are just with Dai and his people to make a decision.

Think Earnshaw tweeted last night there was hope for a positive outcome in 24 to 48 hours. We aren't even at 24 yet.

Latest rumour of that there twitter is that Zygi and Mark Wilf - owners of the Minnesota Vikings were one of the 3 bidders. They want to follow the 49ers into owning an English Club (Niners own, or have large stake in Leeds) but also wanted to convert part of Bearwood into a facility for NFL teams t...
