Im sure he knows stuff but he never lets on what it is he actually knows.he's very oooh look at me "I know more than you" without ever spilling the beans and ive said so to him on more than 1 occasion both on the message boards and in real life.
All his posts ever really say are
"the walls are closing in,Diamond is this,Diamond is that,the ball is in the Wills court"
Sorry but im always annoyed by people that claim to know the inside track but never give facts.I completely understand why people sometimes cant give details but if you cant back up what you are saying dont present it as fact and tap your nose. Fucking good post Oevil! I cant claim to be a mate of Banbury red, I wouldn't know the fucker if he walked into me, but he does seem to have an insiders ear on things. I'm sure I read on thisis that hes mates with Devlin and Power, so he's got a head start on the rest of us. I agree with the 'I know something you dont know' thing. It gets on my fucking tits as well, not just Banbury, life in general, but if thats the price to pay for getting an inside line I'm not going to worry. The Wills seem like risking being labelled as right cunts if they dont sell to Fitton. The deal may not be what they really want but hey, if its the only fucking deal on the table they'll have to eat shit or suffer the consequences. From what I can make out Diamond blew the possibility of Wills getting upwards of a couple of million out of the BEST deal due to his greed and the belief that another better deal is always just around the corner ( I bet the cunt is an addictive gambler - classic delusional symptoms). If the 'walls are closing in' on the Wills and they have any doubt about which way to go, they need only look back at what they could have banked if they'd ignored the advice of their advisor. They need to cry a tear over what has happened, rue what they've lost financially, then fucking move on. Posh cunts always survive anyway. They'll just flog off another stately home to the National Trust then lease it back on a peppercorn rent in exchange for letting fucking peasants walk around it in the summer.

Think it sums up everybodys optimism/will to live when this thread goes quiet.
I'm still clinging onto some hope that the silence from all angles means that somethign might be happening. God knows why

Ed said on RS last night that he had spoken to AF "a few hours ago" and there had been no change, nothing to report.
If it is being left to the lawyers to sort out, I don't think they have any sense of urgency. In the current situation surely messrs Fitton,Wills & Power could short circuit the whole process.

The end of our season then. Mid table shit for us I admire your optimism. Mid table would be OK really this season. Did Fitton put an end of week timescale on the takeover, or did I imagine it. Somebody elsewhere said that he had said it could go into the New Year before completion. I don't recall hearing that?

Fitton did say something about this week, i know he's going away again at the weekend to America again i think. I don't recall him saying anything about the new year either, surely it cannot go on for that long? I presume if this takeover is still dragging on next week then there will be protests at the Brighton game? if the weather is ok maybe even more people might turn up this time? we should keep protesting at every home game until they are gone.

I will be protesting at the Southend game. On my own.

can you hear me playing my violin for you?  I'm no medical expert, but it's probably ebola. You should be more supportive by hottailing it over to Sussex to provide him with assorted snacks and drinks, change the TV channel, that kind of thing.

Andrew Fitton did indeed speak about it possibly going over into Christmas and the new Year, he stated that he just wanted the deal done and dusted and any time scales put down were by HIM not by the board or outside influences such as the FL or FA or creditors, as in his words...a good takeover is a fast takeover.
He said he was going out of the country again on Friday but didnt think the takeover will be completed by then.
It was all in the interview played in full by BBC Swindon at 6pm on Saturday as I was driving home from the game.
I dont know if the whole interview is available online anywhere?

Not for man flu  Or ebola, he'd be mush by the time I got there, I just put him on the roses.
