Millsy Oh no.

He was also uncharacteristically beaten by me to proclaiming "goal" against Swindon on the chat. The plot thickens.

Has the Brogue gone rogue?

:wink:


I'm concerned for him

To save face, Brogue has decided to buy the club.

Storey pretty much saying he can't say anything due to EFL regs. And won't confirm that he's made a bid.

While his bid is bullshit, I have to be fair and say his views on how he'd run the club are very reasonable. Have no faith in him to deliver, though.

In all seriousness, if this guy ends up being the only game in town, I can't see how he can be any worse than the existing arrangement

Basically said we need footballing people who have a connection to the club running it, and stop external advisors and agents leeching off the club. Called out Joorabchian as someone who has done very well out of our dealings while the club has suffered.

If it was Red Bird saying that stuff we'd be loving it. But it's a serial bullshitter. And his bullshit was exposed. When they asked him about the club's statement yesterday, his failed businesses and the F1 mess he said a load of words that added up to eff all. He's not a serious bidder. I think he's not so much a liar, as an egotist who sees a different reality to the world.

*** Update***

So from what I've heard the reason the statement was put out last night was because the club was worried the article was a breach in the NDA. The deal is still on and all relevant bodies are still in contact with the EFL. The statement was just to placate the EFL new rules
