Both stepping down

Long terms implications anyone?

Interesting. Let's hope this is the start of the promised new blood that will see the Prince bring investors on board, and it's not just Kev's lads toddling off into the sunset before their Dad retires.

Either wayTT won't be able to say 'the McCabe family' anymore.

I wonder if that's why we seemed a little reticent in the window? I did mention at the time that I wondered if we might be (ahem) taking stock. I agree with you mate, something's afoot, McCabe is pushing 70 and it seems inconceivable to me that his lads would choose now to depart unless he was planning to leave as well.

We'll see, I hope if it is the case somebody comes in who has the financial clout to take the club forward but even more importantly, they allow it to keep its heart and sole. The thought of us ending up like some of the other clubs including the Pigs is not for me.

All very interesting this, but I'm feeling a little apprehensive

As you say, if there is someone knocking at the door, the clubs history, tradition, soul and the considerations of the fanbase have to remain sacrosanct

Moan about them being involved. Get jittery when they aren't.

Thats people for you, tsk...

Pointless worrying about it 58 what's gonna happen will happen regardless of you worrying,be better to worry about stuff you can influence

This isn't the important bit, it is a few lines earlier where 5,200,000 shares have been created. Although we don't know the really important bit of who is buying these shares if they are split 50/50 between the prince and McCabes then it is just a way of getting more money into the club within FFP rules if one of them is buying them all then they will be the de facto owners. the third option is a new investor

Sounds like the Saudi involvement will get stronger and stronger - slightly scary IMHO, would prefer the McCabes to retain an involvement.
