I believe the media blackout is due to Power discussing a sale of the club
And is this based on anything or just a hunch?

Wouldn't surprise me if it's a rumour that evolved from the Byrne/Smith 'story' this morning. He's considering selling Byrne & Smith---> He's defintiely selling Byrne and Smith ---> He's selling all our players ---> He's selling everything ---> OH MY GOD, HE'S SELLING THE CLUB.

Not suggesting he is for a minute but people also took the piss initially when it was suggested that Jed was a bit dodgy. As Reg would say, the long history of incompetents and knaves at STFC gives us every right to be wary/sceptical/worried.

Quite, not entirely sure what the buying party would be getting out of this deal. Roll up, roll up, a league one club with no players that doesn't own it's own ground.

I hear you, and we should never be completely off our guard. I'd only say that Power's financial record for the club to date equals, if not betters, anyone's since I've been supporting the club from the late 70s.

power hasn't put a foot wrong in anything other than communications.
when he actually speaks he makes a lot of sense.
have a lot of sympathy regarding the cooper situation, Sheffield Wednesday seem to be bungling it. power has to be careful he doesn't do anything that can led to a compensation claim, like appointing coopers replacement before he's gone.
bit of a Wendy induced mess as of this very minute.

This thought occured to me when reading about the Cobblers being flogged to an Indian consortium. If someone's made a decent offer...

Well last week they bid £400k for Hanson of Bradford so are in the market for a big centre forward...Bradford rejected the Hanson bid as they are holding out for more money. http://widthofapost.com/2015/06/23/james-hanson-set-to-remain-at-bradford-city/
