the REAL good news (takeover etc)

just clarifying for those who don't believe my thread titles anymore! Todays LT states that all three parties have now come to a satisfactory conclusion and that the deal is expected to be finalised in the next two to three days .... that's less than half of 'next week'

That could mean anything, "next week" has been going on for nearly 2 years now.

well if the telegraph report is accurate, that will be a first.

Fingers crossed that the report is correct, although there are no actual quotes from anyone involved within it. Apparently Ilyas has been on Radio Lancashire news this afternoon & has said the club's finances are in a perilous state

cashy, i had to log on just to congratulate you on that post !! my views entirely. How a single paper can consistently get so much wrong is a wonder to behold ! I wish them well and hope they continue to do well. In my neck of the woods Aldershot is the local team, and the local paper goes out of its way to be supportive and energetically positive. the balance between writing "news", whilst maintaining high journalistic standards, but also acknowledging your local roots is not actually very difficult. Except in some papers.
Well, we live and we learn, and lets hope that the good old LET will get it right one day.

Hope you are well ? the key is the game on Weds. All else is background noise. I am on Radio Lancs this evening. take care
Ilyas

fingers crossed then that the good news is only hours away?

wednesday night could be a cracking nights take over the bar ......

AccyMad · 28-03-2011, 15:55

Note to self : book Thursday off work just in case

macca, dont get carried away !! the radio interview is about the current situation, and i would NEVER announce something so important on radio before this forum and our public web site.

you might not learn anything new tonight on the interview, but i am sure you will let me know. i will try to find the internet link if i am still at a desk.

AccyMad · 28-03-2011, 16:01

Hi Ilyas, do you know what time Radio Lancs are broadcasting the interview?

expatriate · 28-03-2011, 16:03

i think the sports programme starts at 6pm, but i am not quite sure when my interview is playing. hopefully soon after since i have to get to a dinner.
