Who is Chris quoting is what I want to know.

Like buying a house... Nothing is even vaguely certain until exchange.

Weirdly, I can't get excited about that tweet, until it's confirmed by Justin's side, the champers is staying in the fridge.

Ditto and likewise my cake will remain un cooked lol

Does that mean the celebration cake is on hold?

Does that mean the celebration cake is on hold?

It is sadly

Confirmed that it's signed and sealed officially by both parties is when we know it's done.

Like most things in your kitchen.

You know what, I don't even get that little burst of positivity anymore when things like CP's update appear. We've been here so many times before, the negative or positive updates don't mean anything anymore, the only one that matters is the one that tells us there's signatures on contracts that can't be rescinded. I mean would anyone on here be surprised if tomorrow morning its all negative again? I know I wouldn't.

97% Wallop?

So everything is agreed this evening.

By tomorrow morning Ron will have changed his mind. Again.

Prove us wrong Ronald.

Hopefully the lawyers will get a wiggle on, but we all know time is money for a lawyer!

My glass is 95% full..........the other 5% is a frothy head.

It is hilarious how everyone on here has been moaning that we havent got it over the line and then somehow the mood gets even worse after CP tweets that haha. Seriously, its clearly moving forward and although there could be hiccups the fact lawyers are writing it up means its closer than ever. Cheer up everyone

97% Wallop?

Excellent.

Are we going to have a poll to decide on which one Ron has decided upon

I don’t doubt that this is an issue but it’s not RM’s biggest problem.

His biggest problem is that he owes millions and millions.

If he didn’t this deal would have closed ages ago. All the complications arise from the fact that he owes millions and millions and has no means to repay such vast amounts.

Part of the reason he keeps seemingly changing his mind will be because of his massive debts he is beholden to his partners and doesn’t have authority to change things (nor the intelligence to anticipate things). How many of the things he agrees then have to get changed because they don’t work for the Council, for CBRE, for Citizen Housing etc?

I still think he needs this deal.

I still think this deal doesn’t pass until it seems to first fall apart.

I just hope the delay doesn’t first kill the club.

Yes, he has borrowed millions of pounds and this has made this whole sorry affair harder then it should have been.

But, on more than one occasion RM has had a deal that would have sorted that problem out and he’d have made a few quid, but he changed his mind again.
