Probably someone from Sky reading one of the wackier twitterati's Christmas wishes.

For something that's just been mentioned on a national tv station?

I think they may have been referring to the manager.

Just for context, this same commentator has called our Matt Smith a Wales international. He obviously has no clue.

He can't even see that we're playing in hoops!

We never get rumours in the rumour mill, nobody knows anything, apart from those close to the board, who can’t say anything.

it wouldn't surprise me that they think there' new ownership just because the ground's changed name.

They'll have just made it up.

At one point the commentator was talking about a 5 man shortlist as if it was hot off the press.

Having said that didn’t I see reported that the board said they would like to make us more attractive to any prospective new owners ?

It's an easy communication by the club to relay that the commentator was ill informed.

I can guarantee that there is nothing in this rumour, there is no ‘new ownership’.

You can imagine them doing basic research and linking Dick and Terry to Keepmoat, then seeing stadium name change and thinking that made any kind of difference.

Whoever takes over as manager needs to get AB back in the tent. Local lad, knows the DNA of the club, and also draws a line under the previous administration.

If the takeover is true, what we need is a new owner with much more money than sense
