I've heard things are really slow and may not happen at all now. Hence us moving on with signing players like mcClean. It appears peace is here to stay.

Although maybe not a bad thing it would feel a bit of anti climax now. But I admit that's what I fear may happen in the next week or two. Announcement nothing doing

I think we would hear if the deal was dead. There wouldn't be any point keeping up a pretence.

I suspect due diligence has gone well and the buyer(s) are trying to chip the price.

Completely opposite to what I heard. I was told by my mate last night that it hasn't been closer and things are moving along nicely. We would get some sort of announcement if a deal was dead in the water. Peace is apparently viewing the potential Demba Ba signing as a parting gift.

As far as I recall my friend is yet to be wrong so I trust him when he offers me information from inside the club. I have no reason not to trust him.

"its all poppycock". Not sure that holds any weight. It's common knowledge (and not denied by the club in any way shape or form) that there's been interest. "Poppycock" is rather desmisive and dare I say 'ignorant', as there is clearly activity behind the scenes. You state that "JP will be here for the forseeable (sic) ". So what makes you so privy to such information.....if not, why should this sentence hold more weight than many who make seemingly more educated guesses than yourself?

I'd suggest we will know about the takeover within the next 10 days along with the shirt sponsor deal which has now been finalised. Watch this space...

The shirt sponsor has nothing to do with potential takeover. Already agreed

If they are going to announce the McClean signing today then expect an announcement about the shirt sponsor at about the same time. It wouldn't be right having a picture of the new signing without him holding a club shirt ;D

They usually hold the shirt showing the back with their name and number on, so the sponsor doesn't come into play anyway.

My point was, they may for a double announcement. Jianlin holding the shirt for eg

If peace has said he will announce if a deal has or hasn't been done by 30th July, 10 days from Sunday is the 1st so maybe he will announce it then with the new sponsor

I notice that the James Nursey is saying that we will sign 10 players this summer and that we're in discussion with a Chinese consortia around a £100m plus deal. This is the first specific mention I have seen in recent weeks. Maybe takeover is really not far away.

I take anything that man says with a pinch of salt. Bill Howell has said seven on a few occasions and I agree with that figure.

Cannot say that I am overly familiar with the burbling's of Mr Pursey.
However, from my readings of the Mail I believe that Mr Howell largely burbles like a burst backside hole.
It doesn't matter how many resources you have.
If you don't know how to use them, they will never be enough.
Oh, and always remember to defecate on those Vile chaps in claret and spew.

The club have made their job really hard. You read there stuff and feels like typical paper rumours. Bill yesterday was rewriting stuff off the website like it was news. Ive asked them a few times about take over and they just don't reply.

I will just point out that the mirror is little more than a comic for adolescents and if you think the the Mail and Post journalists go in for lazy reporting the red top guys taught them everything they know!

Personally I'm fairly relaxed about whoever it turns out to be, what will be will be and there is fu*k all I can do to change or effect it.
