So the 'majority' of incoming directors have apparently been approved by the FA, so come on who is the dodgy one?

Probably trying to figure out which spelling of Jed's name us the right one!

Think some perspective needs to be added. I for one wouldnt be happy if the FL just ticked a box with yep, they've  a tenner in the bank, and approved, it like they were doing. Seems good to me they are being dilligent and making sure everything is in order. everyone would be well peeved if we had another Best, or a Notts co munto on our hands in a fortnights time.
I think you are spot on, my only concern really is that it now means Paolos targets may not be signing for us on loan.

I would rather have the right people owning the club that a Ken Bates or Munto type owner thats for fucking sure.

But how long does it take to sort these things out?! It's been over a week!

It really is just impatience from the fans more than anything and I think that's fair enough. It's nice that the Football League are adhering to Sonic's request to delay proceedings as he's in some cabin over the weekend (sounds awfully Evil Deadesque, I wish him well).

Depends on how complicated a history of directorship etc they have had, and judging by some there is a long list of companies and all will probably be investigated fully before agreed upon.

lets say there are 5 people in the consortium and they all have as many fingers in as many pies as Jed then there could be up to a hundred different lines of investigation.

Oh well, I guess it all sounds promising. It's a shame we'll miss out on some of PDC's transfer targets because of the delay (I'd imagine).

Agreed, but I think the criticism is one of lack of consistency of rules not being applied equally...

Who know's? It used to be 24 hours and look where that got everyone. I would expect with all the ownership issues those days are past, and they are finally doing what they should have been doing.  Christmas day does come eventually you know..

Cabin in the woods.  Good film.  Dont fancy Sonics chances of being the one to survive in a horror film scenario.

Which of course would be quite ridiculous as they are different rules being applied. Sutton's right, a little perspective and patience will go a long way.

Not sure I have much faith though that FPPT is worth anything much more than it was when Chainrai passed it or Andronikou's CSI lot who's whole empire was based around a fraudulent bank.
