Not sure if this is the best thread to put this but sod it. The charge against Bearwood has been satisfied as of last Friday according to Companies House.

Absolutely not clear if this as a result of the loan that the charge was for having been paid off over the full term or if it has just been cleared to make way for an upcoming sale of the club but its gone anyway, which can only be a positive.

Continues to move slowly. 2 weeks in a row a journo has reported exclusivity is due in days not weeks. Turns out Dai is a procrastinator.

Presumably he'll want to resolve while he's in the country? Even if his resolution is the one we all hate in which he rejects all offers?

Us not hearing anything does not mean nothing is happening up to and including exclusivity.

Of all the fake news and false information ever posted on this website, that has to go down as the most egregious

You don't like SPAM, then? You must be young, not like the old fogies, like me, who remember eating it in the early post war years, when there was nothing better to be had, If there was anything else our parents could get at all, that is!


The spam fritter from the 555 Fish Bar on the Oxford Road when there was an evening game at Elm Park used to last exactly as long as it took to walk up Wantage Road before turning into Norfolk Road and into the ground at the Tilehurst Road end, and was absolutely lush..............


100% - As was the beefburger fritter (although it was very grey and I'm not sure how much beef was in it)

Aye, the only timescale we've had from anyone vaguely official is hopefully by the end of the year. Pretty much anything that happens unless it's the next couple of weeks, which is too soon realistically, means we're basically down anyway. So doesn't really matter if it's 19th December, or 30th March when it actually happens.

The idea that a bidder would have exclusivity and they would keep it entirely secret without anybody reporting on it is for the birds.

It's a late bid by a consortium fronted by ex Welsh rugby international Dai Young.
