Article in Sunday Express saying takeover imminent.....

I don't know the facts or figures, I've got a sneaky feeling nobody has, but I've got a feeling we will survive

Along withe Gloria Gaynor.

From the very little we know about both bids the Stelios one seems to have more about it , why does the club have to stay with an english owner and what will that have to do with eddie once it is sold?

 

Beware Greeks bearing gifts.

No no

 

Beware Trojans, they're complete smegheads

The story of the Wanderers, Mounts. Haven't there been occasional rumours over the past 50 years or so about potential investors or buyers, and the then Boards turning them down. No idea if there was any truth in them.

There's been 1 or 2 rumours over the years I would like a new owner with no ties to the old school owners or old board members i.e. Warburtons, new chairman with no previous ties to the club. I'm not sure that the powers that be want to relinquish control/shares in the club but I do hope that whoever buys the club has a complete new fresh approach and a new broom.

Well, you know what they say

 

"Look after your broom"

I agree, but you can refuse to sell, or hold on until you get your asking price (which you may or may not get offered) especially if as it seems there are multiple parties interested in buying

It's a nightmare situation for a football club to have an owner who's said he won't put any money into the football team and  who is holding out for a higher selling price than he's being offered to get out of the  club.I'd love any of our rivals to be in that situation.I bet the Bury, Wigan and Tranmere fans are loving it and hope Davies is still the owner for another 10 years.

They can't sell the club without relinquishing control, Mounts. Unless they want a Bolton fan to shovel millions into the club without wanting any control.

And to put fresh life into what I said before, Stelios claims the club have known about his potential bid since January without replying to him.

If they find a buyer, I want all the previous old school guys to be persona non grata at the club.

So the club is desperate to sell but ignore a potential buyer who has expressed interest for nigh on a year?

 

You can't help but think the club is a shambles run by absolute amateurs. And these blokes are all successful businessmen in real life.

 

Just shows it's all a game to them.

or that we don't know enough to be sure either way

The way this is playing out we can take a good guess

Why does every Bolton fan take what's said in the BN as gospel? Are these offers real or they just trying to sell papers ?

i don't think its them trying to sell papers

 

i do think on occasion folk use them for their own ends

 

not saying thats the case with stelios but i do wonder if iles made any effort to verify the story

And the game isn't football

Takeover to happen soon. Eddie Davies trying to make sure the club goes to people who will care for it and look after it not some chancers like Venky's for example. Hence the delays and claims from other 'interests'. He will let club go for a lot less than the reported £30 million as well, to the right bid. Told it is the Dean Holdsworth fronted one. (not by an ex player or man in the pub, someone who usually knows whats going on up there)

What about a Wanderersways consortium.

Lets hope it's all done and dusted for the start of the January transfer window so that we can all get excited about signing Ronaldo and Messi and end up signing no fucker because the new buyers "didn't realise the scale of the financial mess the club was in"

Iamin

 

Ill take care of the reebok rebels.

Ill do the ticket pricing. 

 

£5 every game. I'll be labelled a hero

I'll sort out the TV's in the bar area's from 3 - 5 which will include Emmers and Corry on catch up

I'll sew some cushions and knock up some throws for the new seating area in the ESLSC

I'll tell agents to Fook off when they ask for silly fees

I'll be in charge of the stewards.

 

And will go round twatting them when they step out of line.

I'll get rid of the red seats

nothing to see here, we'll still be in the same boat come the end of the season

 

stick to the soaps thread, much more intersting than this drivel

Can I be in charge of the music?
