SUFC: The Future The Takeover - Very very close.

[Smiffy]

I'm not convinced we'll see announcement of completion this week, as I said, but perhaps preliminary completion and the embargo off wouldn't be surprising before the weekend.

Absolutely not definite.

But I wouldn't be surprised.

That’ll do. Couple of additions before the weekend would be most welcome…

I went to the Panto at the Cliffs Tuesday night, Joe Pasquale was brilliant and the bloke that played the dame told a very cheap one liner about The Blues predicament, along the lines of We're doomed'. When the announcement is made I want you to all shout 'Oh no we're not' very loudly, just like me and her did on Tuesday night. This is not ITK stuff but I'm getting bored with the other regurgitations on here so it just felt right to share.

I can remember singing a song like this when I was a kid. 10 men, 9 men, 8 men, 7 men, 6 men, 5 men, 4 men, 3 men, 2 men,1 man...and his dog... put on a SUFC shirt and went to play a football match."

That's gotta be a new song hasn't it?

12 men went to play
Went to play for Southend
12 men, 11 men...etc etc.

Any new signings are likely to be announced Friday or even Saturday morning.

I think it’s seen as a competitive advantage not to have your opponents know who they need to prepare to face. You’ll notice that the majority of in-season signings in recent years are announced Fridays and sometimes even Saturday morning.

Problem is that it's not a competitive advantage if we don't know who the players are either !

I wish we were just a normal football club. I think supporting SUFC is worse than smoking.

Tommy as several other people have said, these things are complicated, require legal professionals and advisors etc and they will not be working after 5.30pm tomorrow. So even with the best will in the world. things can only go as fast as the slowest cog in the wheel. Agreements are one thing, actually getting everything looked over and signed is another.

Moist, with a flannel handy for the inevitable let down.

I've been feeling like this for months lol the flannel has been there throughout

Lawyers will work over Christmas if they’re paid to do so. If there’s pressure and desire to get things sorted next week the then there’s no reason it can’t. The only sticking point will be money transfers on the bank holidays.
