Is it over or ongoing..still…?

I'm assuming ongoing until there's an announcement that says otherwise.
I am curious to who's committing to paying wages etc with players coming in though.

Nothing to see here- even the alleged alternative bid that was getting a bit chirpy, has gone to ground.

The Rajanator clearly fancies one last dance.

Should we have a poor start, fail to get into the First Round Proper of the FA cup and have sacked the manager by early November (the norm), only then will the dust be blown off the takeover papers and DD will begin once more.

On the other hand in the unlikely event (going on recent history) that we have a reasonable start, Make it to at least the first round and SG still at the club- then it will be mothballed for the foreseeable.

As I said, nothing to see here until bonfire night!

Based on incoming and outgoing I’d be amazed if our wage bill isn’t a lot lower than last season, just my opinion as oppose to having any information.

The silence is deafening.
A strange situation for sure.

As fans we can only speculate and even that's gone underground with the L carry on.


My take if its allowed :

Only 49% of the club up for sale.
Maybe a drip feed more over a 2 year period hence the 2 yearers getting handed out.

It's not very professional like to run a business and keep customers in the dark.

Better leave it at that.
Probably get deleted by lunchtime.

When a manager was appointed and players were being signed I wondered if this indicated the takeover had arrived……then it slowly dawned on me it was business as usual.
Another season of entering the Grand National on Delaney’s Donkey loomed…..?
Another season swinging at anchor, the only movement being going around in circles…?
I’m normally cautiously optimistic at the start of the season, but for the first time I find myself resigned to getting it over asap and hoping we stay in tis league because there’s not a flicker of hope inside me over the coming months.
A damp fog of despair seems to be on both my shoulders and I can’t shake it off

I think it's still ongoing but it's going to be a long long process with Raj being major shareholder for at least the next couple of seasons.
Surely if the Herd Group bid was dead there'd have been an announcement to say as much without giving details or reasons, can't see how that could be in breach of any non disclosure agreements?
Agree this is probably the worst close season in decades in terms of looking forward to next season with any kind of excitement, it's down to blind hope now.

You really do hate Pools dont you!!

We on a life support machine.

Id say his quote is 99.9% nailed on.
