    Agreed. Managers don't get nearly enough time in this footballing culture these days. Not happy with Shabba but willing to sell if he can change that.

    I imagine if we don't win at Livi, it may be announced within the following few days.
    Also heard John Bennett is coming back to the board, which is good news.
    We definitely know which league we're in. What's the latest Arab87?

    The more this drags out, the more doubts i have to the validity of these rumours. Some of them dont ring true with Justine buying back in and Bennett coming back onto the board.

    One thing im sure of, someone will be holding out to bleed as much money out of this as he can!

    tbh Chick I've gone from hopeful to doubtful to very doubtful. Would we be making deals on players now if a new regime was about to sign in? Unlikely, surely they would want control over that and request delay until the takeover goes through. Love to be proved wrong.

    Yes strategy for next season appears to have been set. Csaba with back room team added to. Key player releases and signing or two made.

    All these key decisions you’d expect to be left and not bind hands of new owners.

    More that happens more I think running of club will be remaining the same

    Certainly rumours that announcement would be made after last game have proved unfounded

    Us making deals and bringing new players in is just us getting on with business instead of waiting for something to happen. I would be foolish to sit waiting and not signing anyone, then all of a sudden, the League cup is upon us and we have the bare bones of the team that we currently sit with.

    I would also expect the new owner would want to get a feel for the place until they start ploughing their funds into the pit of our despair.

    I think you need to take what you read on here with a huge pinch of salt.

    Especially the pish I come out with (before anyone else says it ).
