Mysterious takeover, nothing known about this "Middle East consortium" other than their name, first act seems to be a startling and pretty ridiculous statement of a classic boom/bust policy, I'd be shitting myself.
Yes agreed, too much too soon.

Good luck to them I say. Let them enjoy it and I hope it doesn't end in disaster.

Fair play to them. Of course there will be a risk of it all going tits up but thats the same with everything. The pro's out way the cons.

Apparently they're giving Sven a 5 year contract on £2m a year.

Nice work if you can get it...but you can bet £2m was bigger than Notts County's turnover last year !!

I expect it doesn't include boardroom roles, hence him being DoF not manager.

I think its great and would be brilliantly exciting to be a fan of Notts County right now,yes it might go wrong but given the choice of plodding along sensibly in the bottom division hoping to build a side to make the play offs or having the club bank rolled by a mentalist foriegn consortium i know what Id choose.  Cool

Hmmm I think ill ditch the Man City "project" for the Notts County one...

Don't think it's quite like that now, but historically because of the lace making industry it was the case....when I used to go there regularly 30 years ago, it was still noticeable wandering around there were plenty of birds about.

When I went up there earlier this month it was no where near that number. More blokes than anything unfortunately. Loads of stag do's. Grrr.

My stag do was in Nottingham.  (Weekend of our 7-1 defeat at Forest.  Happy days.)  There were 20 of us there and the only one of us who pulled that weekend pulled another bloke (on account of him being gay.)  The 6:1 thing is clearly a myth.

Got rellies in Nottingham, and it used to be true, a lot of the single female population are now over 65 , Reg would still be in clover.
