Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

German investor is in talks to takeover Reading Football Club and London Irish, Sky Sports News understands.

FAO Stranded. What do you know about Daniel Loitz?

Never stands his round down the Irish Pub.

Probably why he can afford 28m for our bin fire.

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

In the latest edition of penalties being made up as they go along, Forest have been given a 4 point penalty for breaching FFP rules. They drop into the bottom 3.

Can only assume Everton will get similar.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Love him or hate him, trust him or not but Huang Kad has just posted a picture of a corner flag.

One of those situations where you don't trust the account but know it has been right on more than one occasion (wrong on others) and hope this is one more occasion where it is right.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

my concern would be that these rumoured prospective buyers only want the club at the lower price without the training ground, and the trainig ground being back in the total deal means they are no longer interested and we are back where we were, with no one looking to buy as as Dai values it all too...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

It shouldn't block any sale of the club/stadium to any potential owner as the club don't own the training ground any more due to Dai's shiftiness, so club is just a name. Now Dai could try and throw that in and muck things up with the alleged deal but if this is all as people expect, Dai has a very ...

Can't make up my mind if that is good news or bad news....

Or if they are having to check if they can actually use it.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Why are people so fixated on the distance between the Wycombe ground and Bearwood? Football players do not live at the stadium. For a number of them, it may be an easier commute to get to Bearwood than their current training ground and on matchdays players tend to make their own way to the stadium f...

SJM says the sale is very close and buyers with deep pockets. He didn`t say that, at one point he said to dim that he knew about has much as him. He said he was aware of 3 possible interested party`s and hoped a deal could be completed soon. Besides, our current owner had very deep pockets. But shr...

Re: What day will the news break?

Why this week? Legal matters take time to resolve. All parts of the deal need to come together at the same time. Far more complex than Dai just signing on the dotted line. This week because "ITK" accounts are spreading its done and even James Earnshaw has tweeted that something is close. ...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

It was reported that Dai had received an offer from a mate which Howe apparently dismissed. Possibly, Howe knew that Dai’s mate wouldn’t pass the EFL checks very quickly. Everything Dai does never makes sense so this could be an underhanded way of selling the club to his buddy and resolving a short...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Apologies, if this has already been posted, but is there a chance that Lomtadze is Dai’s so called mate and his ultimate aim is to buy the club. Selling the training ground could be a quick way of funding this month’s £1m shortfall. I appreciate that in all probability this isn’t the case, but none...

Lewis Wing's other half now starting to speak out on Twitter. Nothing major yet but could well get interesting.

Re: Wycombe will be culpable.

When Reading bought Kevin Doyle for £60k, and then bought out the remaining clauses in the contract from Cork for a pittance when they were about to go out of business, and it was obvious to everyone that he was worth multiple millions, were we culpable? Yes i suppose. But we still did it. Yes, thi...

Re: Wycombe will be culpable.

They’re a business. They’ll be getting an excellent training ground, I assume on the cheap because of our desperation. They owe us nothing. Our club has been absolutely shafted by a series of utter tossers, if Wycombe can take advantage of that to give themselves a competitive advantage, good luck ...
