Takeover bid from

[Dare to dream!]

Louis Tomlinson according to the sun...

Front page! Must be a slow news day

[Woodhead Passer]

Indeed. Don't know what's more ridiculous from The Sun; Chairman Tomlinson or this...  http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3857888/Troubled-Carlos-Tevez-in-transfer-to-Doncaster-Rovers.html

[dknward2]

Wasnt that a free press headline for April fools day

[Sad-Rovers]

I think There will be a few rather surprised people on this forum tomorrow.

[BigColSutherland]

I'm hearing there's more than just Tomlinson. SC are in the mix again.

If our revenue is now down several million, and our asset base remains the same, a renewed takeover bid would make sense. And an acceptance of a bid more likely.

SC plus others, a done deal according to my sources.

It's all over Facebook and Twitter, RD, and has been whispered about since at least middle of last week

[dknward2]

If they bring 20 million to get out off league one easy then just need to find the 60 million plus to get promoted out of the championship which is still no given

Ah, the font of all truth that is social media.

Someone on there said the Sequentia deal was done back in September.

Well I suppose you'll have to pop along to the newsagent first thing.... Prepare to be excited / disappointed (delete as applicable)

[DadsleyRover]

This has to be rubbish journalists making up stories

[godlike1]

God not this shite again. Can we just concentrate on having a well run club that can survive on the basis of a solid business plan and not pie in the sky dreams which lead to boom bust and embarrassment

[BobG]

Maybe you're right Sad. But the evidence so far is less than thin isn't it? Twitter? Facebook? And the terminally useless Sun? It's not rocking my boat yet.

Neither is the logic, recent history, precedent and the remarkable inaction of John Ryan tbh. What John's done this last 6-9 months is worth thinking about. It can tell you a lot.

Good. Your track record means that your 'confirmation' of the story gives it the kiss of death.

Track record? I think you may be confusing me with someone else.

Nope. You're the one I look to as a weather-vane for being wrong.

It's a joint venture?

[aidanstu]

Who ever wrote that must be smoking something.

[GazLaz]

TB and DW have more money than JR and LT times 10.

Looks like another mess of a summer again.

I like the author of that article    By DAN WOOTTON, Head of Showbiz

[Dagenham Rover]

Sorry didn't see the other thread

[dknward2]

According to that jr sold his shares must have missed that

Anyone else thought he did something wrong smoking whatever (doesnt bother me personally have tried it never will) now he needs a good news story and buying his struggling local club sounds good to outsiders
