Not at all. The silence actually points to things being very close indeed. If this takeover wasn't happening, we would have known about it by now. Barring the unforeseen, we are about to be taken over.
It's been silent many times in the last few years, but no takeover yet

I've only been fleeting in and out of the discussion, but as far as I can see this is all based on press rumours and Twitter gossip? Am I mistaken?
Nick, as I understand it your organisation has at it's disposal a huge computer that can carry out complex algorithms in a few seconds, & yet your predictions are only accurate for a 48 hour period, with a slightly less confidence of certainty for the following 72 hours.

One of the regular ITK posters said several days ago and more than once that the announcement would be early August. Don't think he's changed that.

Get your head out of that rubbish!

New Baggie - it all depends who your source is?

Have they been right in the past?

Anyway I'd say it's still on until we hear otherwise.

Sorry Newbaggie your source must have been wrong unless it comes out late, I`m sticking with Baggie 78 when he said early August and 8 is a lucky number  in CHINA 8/8/16 those seem good numbers to me.

I think we must be about the same age. I sympathise with every word and feel I could have easily written that. My commiserations!

If hardened business men go with lucky numbers to release news then I despair. If that really is the case then we'll be lumped with a Vincent Tan type character who thought it was lucky to change the Cardiff home kit to red.

Do you know what, I am finding this thread more & more surreal every day. In the greater scheme of things, it matters not one jot if the club is acquired or not, our lives will carry on just the same.
On the other hand, if some Chinese or whatever businessman came along & said he was planning a West Bromwich re-generation project, which would enhance our lives & create thousands of jobs, we'd have a right to get excited and/or frustrated.

Chill, FFS.

Not really. Peace changed residence to Jersey. That's the give away. It's the worst kept secret ever.

lot of people acting like buying / selling the club is the same as popping down to the shops for a pint of milk.

it'll happen when it happens, nobody other than the seller and the buyer can do anything about it and acting like a spoilt child won't change that.

No because it's a private deal between two parties on the stock market whether you like it or not we don't have a god given right to know and the club won't address everything that comes out. I would suggest that the fact they haven't came out and dismissed it is as good a sign as any that it's happening
