Surely if that's being done, it will have been done by the time the sale was agreed. Isn't all this time down to him getting shot of the non league club he owns and the league checking out him and his backers? Can the league say he can't have it on the basis that they don't have enough money to run a club of that size? Or can they only knock someone back because they'r a cunt?

Coventry, Sunderland and Bristol (?) were all possible relegation candidates on the last day of the season about 500 fucking years ago, Coventry were playing Bristol, word got through that the Mackems were losing and so both teams took the foot off the gas and played out a draw. Quite how Bristol escaped the deadly wrath of wearside I don’t know, maybe they were one of the mackem’s legendary, imaginary allies? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry had to delay their kick-off for 15 minutes due to congestion, I think that figures into things too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42449 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 So, it seems that this Donald bloke is paying £40 million for them ( ), and his right hand man is an Old Etonian called Charlie Methven, who has said that Margaret Thatcher would be one of his three “ legendary dinner guests”. Cue “ Maggie was a decent sort really, massive MLF apparently” threads on Ready To Groom in T-5 minutes and counting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42449 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 So, it’s cost him £40million, there’s no “international consortium”, it’s just him and his Thatcher-loving mate. Fucking mint. Let the slow but steady dawning of reality at the Bungalow of No Lights commence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
