Howard,

What was your buyers reaction to the £2m offer?

i imagine peed themselves laughing

Howard,

Providing this all goes to plan, and your team take control. Will you have a role to play at the club under the new buyer? 

2 days to go until Howards prediction. I really hope it’s all smooth sailing but I have a bad feeling that it’s not going to be so simple.

He'll be centre forward

What I can't understand is if you have got someone like Richards on board allegedly backed by foreign money why would you front it with a loon like bassini? Why did Richards or Williams not front the bid? And all the Premier league in 3 years nonsense that would be realistically 2 promotions in 3 years, you are talking the kind of money wolves spent to do that. Take bassini out of it though and it wouldn't come across as a bad deal.

Completely agree. 

The whole outlook of it would be seen differently if it weren’t for the name Bassini. Why discredit yourselves with a loon like that. Why not just Richards front it with the cash from elsewhere. 

IF, there is any reality to Bassini etc, then why leave it so late?

Rather have someone, discrete and seemingly properly interested.

If you’ve got plenty of brass, you don’t need to shout about unless you’re Harry Enfield’s considerably richer than yaw character.

Bassini stinks of shouting about it, I would be gobsmacked if he could back it up. If he is in any way involved, I could only imagine he’s the front man, a Kenyan type fixer  and in no other way a money man.

I still reckon Howard’s men will get it done tomorrow/Tuesday even though we’ve no idea who it is. They’ve been quietly going about their business. Welcome back Stelios

Personally I'd prefer Howard mob, they've gone about it in the correct way.

Are there any plans to butter the hotdogs under the new regime?

Just now, Howardroark said:

No

thats a shame that (HOWARD FOR MANAGER) but seriusly you have given us hope on the future of bwfc. 

Howard,  

Are you still confident in your buyer succeeding April 2nd? 

How do you expect it to play out? Will we see an official announcement on the 2nd? 

Do they take the shares and complete the sale the same day etc or will their be time in between?  Will we know about shares being taken or will it just be a standard sale announcement with that detail hidden.

Crazy talk

I'd wager the poster originally bemoaning this 'aberration' has never (I'm a turd) had a buttered hotdog bun, other than possibly at home, more likely they've had a hotdog with buttered (or oily) onions...

They should get their fucking hotdog experiences in the proper perspective before deriding the 'rollovers' (aka pigs' ringpiece baps).

Bassini is required to deposit a figure with the clubs solicitor and EFL tomorrow, if he does not then they will fail his FPP

Not a turd because your italic is not bold more of a wet follow through.

It does seem like a final throw of the dice to make the mystery bidders cave and give ken more money, but hopefully I’m not looking at it through rose-tinted glasses.

H - does the have to be paid by 5pm or anytime?
