But dramatic that considering we’re right in the middle of a raging inferno with the current leadership (If you could call it that)

Excited that it most likely is the end for him and holgate has been a long time coming

They are out of contract next summer anyway, we don't have to get rid of them.

How boring is this cycle of 'close to takeover' headlines.

Be honest... You got a little tickle of excitement when you seen this news breaking this morning, even if just for a second?

I'm interested to know what's changed for them in the last few weeks, other than the Textor stuff. Clearly monies owed to A-Cap/777 were a sticking point for them previously - has there been a breakthrough in the Leadenhall case or something?

There will be a resolution on this.

I'll believe it when it actually happens. I highly expect by Wednesday there will be reports of talks that have went nowhere.

Maybe it was just an excuse to pull out like they did with Roma and there wasn’t this bug scary thing all along ?

Didn’t seem to bother John Textor

Most of the hardcore fans lost their minds, threatening Souloukou who's been put under police escort and decided to resign shortly thereafter in order to protect her children.

Italians take their football seriously. Very seriously

I bet your fun at parties

Given the options on the table, this is most welcome news to me.

Friedkin seems far more professional than Textor, who seems like he might forget to dress his lower half before leaving the house on occasion.

The takeover agreement

ANother exclusivety agreement or the next stage after this ?

More of intrigue. The same as when we are signing players, wont really believe it until their holding the shirt up/throwing the keys around to Bramley Moore.

…a few quotes indicate ‘significant progress’ this weekend. No idea what that might mean, I’d have thought little happens over the weekend.
