I couldn't be less surprised. Can the Adver take that ridiculous 'day too late for Di Canio' headline down now?

It's between the consortium and the FL. The club can't comment as the outgoing board are still in charge.
Sorry that's what I meant, Someone at the club is passing on updates to the Advertiser to publish without breaking the NDA so why not stop some rumours by telling supporters themselves.

On the plus side, if we win tonight take the 3 points off the 10 we'll be docked for administration and we've only lost 7!!!

Everybody and anybody associated with the club is a complete cunt

Thank you. I do spend an inordinate amount time getting my posts just right!!!

Or to be honest, I'm so pissed off with the club at the moment I'd like to kick it in the cunt

Is anyone remotely surprised that it hasn't been sorted today?  An absolute farce and anyone who is kidding themselves there is nothing wrong, well they're kidding themselves.

Rumours suggesting it will be sorted by the end of the week at the earliest now. (source: Me)

Also, didn't the recent takover at Leeds take 6 weeks or so to get ratified?

Not at all, no.

We've all been led to believe that this takeover would happen in a matter of days, when in reality it probably would be more like a few months. Hate all the speculation on thisis. Writing stuff for the sake of it. Bit like this post I suppose  Cheesy

Just a bit more on the time it is taking...GFH Captial finalised a deal for Leeds on 21st November and it was 'officially' completed on 21st December.

I posted this before, but Reading's takeover took 6 weeks after submitting to the FL.  As someone mentioned above, Leeds took 4 to 5 weeks.

I think the issue here appears to have been an assumption and continual reporting of the fact that the the FL would somehow do this a lot quicker.

Which suggests xtremely poor journalism from a number of outlets over the last month or so resulting in false expectations & ultimately the resignation of our best assest.

Not at all. It probably looks as though I'm giving Sam a hard time with some of my posts & I genuinely don't mean to. He's a fan like the rest of us & obviously wants the best for the club but he along with others in the press have, over the last fortnight at least, been stringing us along with 'understands it will be ratified tomorrow'. Either he's guessing or he needs to get better sources. It's not an easy job being a journalist in these circumstances but I would rather read boring facts than exciting rumours.
