Sounds heaven - have a great time, you lucky git!

It's been a great way to get away from all the stress of waiting for this. Being 5 hours behind l get alm the updates at 10pm UK time in one go. My heart rate and BP has tumbled out here

I was looking on Simon Jackson's Instagram and saw a photo of a guy who looks a little bit like a wolf.

Poor West Ham..........and they thought that they had the football scoop of the week with their tinpot trophy!

Its not a tinpot trophy , im pretty sure you wouldnt be saying that if Southend United oneday won it .

 

[Shrimper]

Odds on tomorrow considering it's the NL AGM?

Potentially. Club has to pay a bond at the seasons start I believe. Doubt Ron wants to pay that

Blimey I leave this thread alone for a few hours and it’s all kicked off! So what I’ve gleaned from a quick scan of the last 10 pages is the deal is done, except it’s not and is gonna take another 2 weeks, at which point Shrimpet Steve will be announced as Chairman, Ron will be his secretary, we’ve got a billion quid to spend, and are in talks with Harry Kane. I might have imagined the last bit. Is that about it?

its in talks with Ronaldo ,Harry Kane too young .

It’s the non league trophy of European football

Astonishingly I’m secretly pleased for them… I feel thoroughly dirty about it but I just am.

I feel slightly better knowing we shall hopefully have our own day to celebrate soon. Still sickened me a bit to see the amount of Hammers at training today compared to just one Shrimper.

It's still a Trophy

Spurs fans would snatch your hands off for that

 

[Gt Yarmouth Shrimper]

As

As Chairman?

I'd hope he continues as CEO

Amen to that.

 

[SamuraiBlue]

Wallop!

 

[Ron Manager]

Carlsberg don’t do waking up on a Saturday morning to scroll through overnight news from the UK on your phone. But if they did…,.

Have you been waiting for the 10am announcement ?

You can do one....

[KiwiRob]

Wallop!

Does "wallop" in this context mean the person who thought they held all the cards discovered that this was not the case?

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

yep, but when it doesn't come, the rest of my day is clear.

 

[Ian Benjamin]

No updates from The Blue Boar? Did anyone go?

I think Wolfy on Twitter admitted he wasn’t actually going but there may have been other ITKs there.

Not themselves, but they’re managers of a hedge fund. A quick whip around to a few of their clients to say do you want to lump in to own a football club and they’d have more than enough bites. The people behind funding this probably don’t expect to get their money back, they’re probably just doing it for the clout to say they own a slice of a football club and a bit of a gamble.

The crunch time will be if they have to go back and ask these people for additional funding.
I think it will have to be a case of becoming successfully quickly.

My worry, until we know more is that the money will have to be paid back at some point.
