I don’t think it’s a new chapter yet from what I’m hearing.

This week has been a positive, but RM will still own us today. Its not good news as in the takeover has been completed.

Just enough to mean JR and the gang are happy to fund us through to next season when we hope the deal will be done?

Thats what Id hope - if they're still in, then you'd hope they don't want to buy a club that's been crippled by a transfer embargo again, so if they're still in they'll be looking to put cash in to lift the WUP, remove the transfer embargo and give the 3 amigos a fighting chance of promotion.
 
If the good news is that all 3 of the criteria have been met and subject to the final elements of DD being ironed out and agreed the sale will go through then fantastic day for us.

JR and co to release season tickets, get the petition sorted, embargo lifted and a few players in through the door then we can go back to a false malaise of positivity and new custodianship.

Until the next potential end of the club event in October anyway.

Come on you blue boys and come on the England.

Sounds like the battered can is getting kicked further down the road?
More reassurances from SCC and the 🐀 that negotiations are ongoing and that they are close?

I just hope that COSU`s 3 points are stuck too by them.

We need closure on whatever the outcome is.

The concortiun staying would be the best news today .Getting the council and Rattie to agree a deal is paromount to the club finaly moving forwatds Maybe ron has fianaly come to terms that his stadium was never going to happen . Also maybe he has woken up to the fact he cant beat this council with his pipe dreams .And if he wants and needs his pot of gold then he finaly has to hear what he is being told .We live in hope that this is finaly going to happen .

After what has gone on I'm assuming for COSU to continue funding the club at this stage it's going to have to be basically set in stone that they will 100% own the club.

Today feels a big step to finally removing the rat at at long last, providing what people are hearing is true.

He doesn't care if a new stadium is built. He's probably glad it's gone this way, as more apartments can be built without the stadium.

Season tickets again for our family only when Ron is 100% gone. Too many false alarms.

Thankfully the consortium are running finances at the club. They are not releasing season tickets until we know we will be able to see out next season. If it was still in Ron's charge, he would happily sell hundreds of Season tickets, and use the money for this and that, but knowing we might not even start the first game.
