When will the takeover go through? The Waiting Game...

[Holy Joe]

It’s 7pm on a Friday night… what do you expect to be happening?

A Bentley there with some packing boxes hopefully

No idea. They could make an announcement tonight if they wish. Waiting for tomorrow is possible but makes no sense to me as everyone will be focused on England.

I have a feeling Monday will be the fun day. Tonight is a bit late, tomorrow England is playing tomorrow, could do Sunday but I think Monday morning 10am announcement

I think Chris Philips would have reported on the embargo already at least on X, but maybe he’s waiting for something more substantial.

8pm isn’t late personally… I’ve seen singings announced at like 11pm ish… doesn’t make any sense to wait until Monday to me

Quite a lot of that in the overflowing toilets!

He’s most likely asleep still from doing the GE last night/this morning!

Come on. There's a vintage 2024 Brewdog that's been chilling in the fridge since 2023. Bring it home COSU

 

[Flinty]

Now on X lifted !!

CP confirms embargo lifted

What time you predicting tonight?

If it’s all now agreed (and please let it be) I’d say it’s unlikely to be announced tonight.

I would have said Monday morning is more likely than the weekend (particularly if we’re talking completion rather than exchange) but if news is already leaking out that may force their hand to go sooner.

The most likely time this weekend would be c10am Saturday IMO.

Maybe the delays are so they can stock the Shrimpers and Far Post Bars. Between that news and an England win tomorrow it may take some time to obtain suitable quantities of stock.

Yeah agreed

Hitting refresh like a crazy man

 

[AlfaShrimper]

Id be surprised if we get an announcement tonight! Will happily take embargo lifting for now

 

[WillMay333]

The Embargo was for the Winding Up orders, so I guess the deal could still not be completed yet, either way, fantastic news shrimpers

The embargo being gone is a fact. So if that was all there was to report, I think he would have done so.
