    Summer transfer thread

    Personally I think MK were the best team I saw last season. We had a great start to the campaign but once Wyke and then McClean were out, we didn't look like league winners. We hung on, but could have easily finished in the playoffs. Also not sure where this idea that lg1 is all battling hoof...

    NEW THREAD FOR ALL THINGS TAKEOVER

    Yeah I get what you're saying, but the club is being run on barely nothing - so it surely would need more investment from now until the end of the season to get back up to scratch? I'm not sure us group of fans would be so accepting of a new owner who comes in and just keeps the status quo...

    NEW THREAD FOR ALL THINGS TAKEOVER

    Yeah, I'm not sure the exact ins and outs of the non-football creditors but I remember reading the deadline was in March some time? after which we would be deducted 15 points if not paid(?) - so that's another reason, just from a PR perspective, who's going to want to be the guys that come in...

    NEW THREAD FOR ALL THINGS TAKEOVER

    Realistically I don't see anyone being 'pipped to the post' - I don't think we're a sort after commodity, certainly not enough to start a frenzied bidding war (which we have obviously seen since July). Not to mention that it takes around 3 months for anyone to get through the process so you can...

    NEW THREAD FOR ALL THINGS TAKEOVER

    Exactly this. What advantage would anyone have taking over now? Surely any potential owner will just sit and wait until it is absolutely necessary to take over from their point of view. There is no chance of any income now and no real way to influence on pitch performance to stay up so I suspect...

    Gelhardt

    Ah I didn't see that. Like "Ooohaaahdonniepage" said, strange we didn't have a loan back agreement in there, he probably would have played every week for us in lg 1. Oh well

    Gelhardt

    Random one, but has anyone heard any rumours or news about Joe? On FPL he is still not showing as a Leeds player, so I am wondering does that mean they have not registered him (?) and in which case could it mean he is going out on loan......maybe back to us? Wishful thinking but it is strange...

    Deal edging closer?

    Anyone got a link to the 'leaked letter'? I've still not seen it...

    "best thing for WAFC since Amr Zaki"? Surely that is not possible...:LOL:

    NEW THREAD FOR ALL THINGS TAKEOVER

    As I understand it, the whole Lenegan approach was that he was fronting a consortium, so who's money and how much of it is there who knows. As for the way he announced it, I think emotions were running high at the time and it didn't feel so grotesque (at least not to me) when he said he wanted...

    It's fine I get it, you don't like Lenegan. Anything else you are saying is just made up.
