According to this article they are looking at six clubs with Coventry, Charlton and Bolton named.

Could we be one of them and is this suddenly why stadium plans have kicked into full gear?

If this is the case what would you think of Aussies taking over the joint?

We're not. They won't.

We'd have to chuck down a couple of tinnies, rename all Tracey's as Shiela's, and go bush after every game

Think it's unlikely, the clubs listed are all ex premiership clubs.

I don't mind what nationality the owners of our club are as long as they do a good job

Gerard Murphy, is undergoing a “confidential capital raise” with the aim of acquiring $55 million from investors

Even if you include paying off all the debt I don't think you'd need that much to buy us, sounds like they are going for a former 'big' club based off those 3 names.

Possibly gruffollowolf's mates who finally have decided to buy a soccer club:winking:

Would that mean we'd have to play by Australian rules football? :winking:

No the stadium plans being kicked into full gear is the result of years of hard work

The clubs on their shopping list are perfect examples of what can go wrong with takeovers, especially from that dreaded word ...Consortium....No thanks.

Wasn't to successful at Morecambe. :winking:

I see the Conservative MP for Northampton David Mackintosh is stepping down. His on off loan to Northampton FC is one of the main reasons.

 

[bluethroughandthrough]

Is spencer prior part of the consortium?

 

[Benfleet A1]

Would that mean we'd have to play by Australian rules football? :winking:

We'd have to resign Biel if thats the case.

I think the set builder for "Prisoner Cell Block H" has the building contract. The wooden walls will shake in rhythm to the stomping and clapping
