Title: Takeover & Andrew Fitton Update! Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Tuesday, January 1, 2008, 17:12:49 Listening to STFC World Fitton says...here are some highlights,
-The embargo should be lifted around the 11th - Reason for embargo is not clear, We did not get it for breaching a rule, it is because we haven't done something and Fitton will speak to the FL to find out how to get it lifted. -The takeover problems are going well. 2 are solved, it was just paper work and the other is to do with HMRC and he has a meeting Friday and it should be solved Friday or Monday and then its just a case of signing paperwork again around the 11th. - Thinks we have a shout at signing Cox, could probably match Reading's low valuation but if someone comes in with a bigger price we are not in the game to sign Cox. -The issue with HMRC should be resolved this Friday -Fitton is not selling Brezovan, if someone comes in with a massive bid they will talk. -Always in business everything has a price but BREZOVAN IS NOT FOR SALE, Fitton will "fight like a tiger to keep Brezovan" and will do whatever he can to keep him. -Players will not go cheap. -Fitton is interviewing the potential new manager but doesnt think it is fair to go into it as Byrne's team have done well over the last 3 games. -Has called Paul Sturrock for advice. -Dave Byrne is a good coach but doesn't mean you are a great manager, has had suspensions etc when he came in and when players came back, things picked up. Byrne's team has played good football lately so... no rush for a manager. -Doesn't have a short list at the moment.... has a long list :soapy tit wank: Fitton is very well spoken and seems to know his football.

It is inevitable that nothing will move (anager/players) until the takover deal completes. Title: Takeover & Andrew Fitton Update! Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, January 1, 2008, 20:26:31 Agree Batch tbh. I'm very worried about Byrne getting the job now though. Other than that it sounds cool.

I would rather have Byrne as manager and continue how we are doing than do shit and get someone who has to build a rappoprt with players again. Title: Takeover & Andrew Fitton Update!

Fair point Gazz but i'm thinking long term. Will Byrne get us promoted? Probabaly not. Title: Takeover & Andrew Fitton Update!

Title: Takeover & Andrew Fitton Update! Post by: janaage on Wednesday, January 2, 2008, 14:20:36 I was down in Bude in October at the local snooker club and was talking to the Plymouth fan behind the bar, I was glad to hear he held Bobby in as low regard as I did!
