Fingers crossed it's closer but it feels like Zen's Paradox - ie that motion is an illusion. bristol addickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12834953200732814922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740923946598832694.post-26155346040726858462019-01-11T08:29:40.059+00:002019-01-11T08:29:40.059+00:00Good analysis, but the thing about De Turk (or som...Good analysis, but the thing about De Turk (or someone near the deal) letting news of an imminent takeover slip out to Jim White for a public airing in order to get the other parties moving doesn't quite ring true. If that is what happened, why did he then admit it to the fans fórum mere days after? Did one of the other parties leap so far back into the picture there was no need to continue the charade? Because that isn't the tone of his comments at the meeting, where he listed all the supposed interested parties and the bits they are missing. All of them seemed more or less as they were at the previous meeting.<br />In the end, especially as he vaguely admitted using their parties to get information out into the open (stand up Jum White, baby you been had!), you have to wonder at the value of anything that was said there. The man uses meetings to difuse the things he wants others to hear. Doesn't make them true. In the end, we should be happy the team are rising above all of this, and playing some nice football, given the never ending injuries.Ken Shabbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14607350170361616567noreply@blogger.com
