    Donald has already pledged the money from the sale of his shares.

    The new people are just waiting for the nod, from the banks, to say the financial details are completed.

    It's not happening mate, it's happened.

    I am still chuckling at the people on RTG saying Rodwell is gonna be Speakmans boss

    This new structure is way to much for some people to get their heads round

    Here’s a daft fact for you, Liverpool appointed a manager with no previous managerial experience and who was reluctant to take the position but was talked into it. Bob Paisley went on to become one of the greatest managers this country has ever seen. The reason for his success could have been down to his ability, but also may have had something to do with way the club was organised from top to bottom. A successful club needs needs a good structure, a good coach and a bit of luck.

    (and good luck @Guinness Guzzler )

    @JonPalmerSport
    Jamie McAllister was offered the Gloucester City job today, but he may have now another option in the North East...if he doesn't accept, it is likely to be offered to Paul Groves, formerly of Bournemouth and Grimsby Town, who is currently working in Israel

    ^
    Rumours he could be Johnsons number 2

    He might be a good appointment, but I can't help think, "he's a bit of dick"

    Ownership group suggests a number of them not two. This might mean others are arriving but if it doesn’t it suggests to me this ownership group involves Donald and Methven.
    We need some good news re the “ takeover “ cos right now it isn’t looking like a “takeover “ of any significance.

    I know jack **** about either to be truthful. The whinging Bristol fans sound like some of the bridge jumpers on RTG.

    Same here but probably a bit more of Johnson with being impressed with Bristol when I have seen them play. Wasn't totally against Cowley but whoever it was/is going to be they will get my full support, particularly if they pick a more attack minded team.

    Decent video, doesn't come across as a nob which is promising
    sorry edit that, he comes across really well and seems a decent bloke (watched some training sessions and he comes across as a bit of a southerner (nob), but he's good here

    Sorry I've had a few but just wanted to say wow, what a day.

    Takeover confirmed, management falling into place and just had a message from the Sheikh asking us to go back.

    All this and it's Friday, the day some people kept mocking because nothing ever happens.
