Here's the piece....chimes with what we've been saying, but could just be lazy journos  taking stories from here when getting back from the pub.
 
   Swindon are set for a £10million takeover by mystery Portuguese investors this week.

The Robins have kept a lid on the identity of the group looking to take control at the County Ground but it is understood the consortium includes agents who would want to bring Portuguese players to the League One outffit.

That's just standard agency copy - summary of what's been in the locals for weeks. The £10m figure means little more than "total deal worth £10m" which as others have pointed out elsewhere, basically means the amount of debt being covered, I wouldn't start getting excited about Sturrock having millions to play with

I feel a West Ham style 3rd party ownership fight coming...
And perhaps another demotion with it...

Isn't that a new hip "street" slang term for doing cocaine?

RE: the article... Hmmm, I'd rather we were a feeder club for a top club in Portugal than the home of random players looking for a club.
