Not too far from the truth, though I am still playing SuperVets football. Game this Friday. Walking 10 miles per day really helps. Not bad for 57. ’ll actually post a few pics over the weekend so that people can get a flavour of what counts for football pitches over here. Leigh Marshes, Hackney Marshes, Wanstead Flats it certainly is not.

Pre wallop so not the good news we wanted then?

I now have visions of W block doing a unified Kangaroo bounce whilst singing the chorus to waltzing Matilda..... I will never slag off another Aussie soap opera if this finally happens!

Relevant fact. The song is not about dancing with Matilda. Waltzing is a walk about and a matilda is make shift knapsack, bundle on stick type thing.

Heads of terms for a business deal such as this could constitute a whole contract in itself.

So if it's sold STC I think we can rest a little easier, and maybe enjoy a couple pre-drinks tonight ahead of the official completion date.

Didn't Kimura get to this point as well?

Or maybe a euphemism?

An agreement with Ron for a deal - they didn't get a club statement though, so that will be a step further

 

[bazzashrimper]

not this far!

We did celebrate too early thou

 

[Beefy]

Ok - so we would still be reliant on rat not changing his mind on Thursday?

If so - champagne stays on ice for me.

You can celebrate

If they've paid off the tax bill then its done. Neither JR nor, more importantly, the Martins would have stumped up unless it was finished beyond formalities.

He'll ask them what they were moaning about and say it could have been worse he could have made them redundant. You peasants are lucky to have a job etc

Bastards and Theives ? No thanks, just getting rid of one.

There’s some nasty people about !

 

[TJC]

Hopefully we will find out the locals in the consortium and can start questioning their motives within the next couple of hours

Nowhere near surely- negotiating payment plans with creditors, paying off HMRC, staff announcements...

 

[bazzashrimper]

Not sure I remember how to. I’m off to support Scunthorpe.

 

[RONMARTINOUT]

First home game of the season for me. Booked. Buzzing to be back. Get him gone.
