Apparently not a wind-up.

On the upside, it is listed with "free shipping" which is good.

Johnson refused to countenance the suggestion that Dornoch Capital had done Rovers a favour in the process by getting the sale in the public domain. "I don't think we want this sort of publicity and I think a lot of people knew it was for sale because the local paper mentioned it at the beginning of last season"


Nothing like an old school chairman. Who needs the internet when the local paper will tell the world you're for sale?

Huge subscription numbers for the Liverpool Echo in Dubai, I hear.

Clever move.

Would that be the Mersey Ferry ?
