He's been told to deny it by lewis and levy because it would break takeover rules. He has since sacked the person who made this premature announcement.

Am I deluded?

Not at all, we are wishful thinkers but hay it's not out of the realms of possibility, with the kit announcement coming up, would be as good a time than any wouldn't it.

There's nothing like a good conspiracy

I'm a bit surprised that Robofan has'nt commented on this thread yet :think:


because he's been away for a few days jolly and touched down safe and sound this morning, and if i say so myself, the swing has been mightily improved and the brain cells rejuvenated ready for the mass hysteria to sta...oh i see it already has :grin:
just having a scan through what i have missed - oooh a delayed announcement...nothing sinister there, it happens if a speculator chances his arm with a cheeky bid on the offer price while the spec price is rising, in the hope of a quick flip, thus a sale cannot be announced until the bid has been accepted, happens all over, sales for 20/30k are a mere pittance and wont have the slightest effect, now when the 80/90k bidders fall in, keep an eye on it :wink:

and its not us.

To be fair, MattyP has been consistently giving you lots of well backed-up reasons all the way through this thread why it wasn't us, which you chose to ignore. So I wouldn't be too depressed now robofan has confirmed what MattyP has been saying all along; that conclusion should've been reached a long time ago.

Got the impression this morning that there was nothing in this story after all the major newspapers & news networks hadn't followed up the orginal story which broke on Sunday. Sure if there had been anything it they would have been all over it. But at Least this story added some kind of interest for 48 hours to what so far barring the goings on at real Madrid has been pretty boring transfer window!

No it was damn funny. I imagine that a lot of posters here are just bitter that it was a hoax and they fell for it.


Not bitter at all, was just hopeing that it might have been true, and that it might have been talking about us.

And yes Houdini's comment was damn funny

I don't know, but i'm now kinda hoping it is us. We could do with a massive cash injection, otherwise we risk falling way behind the likes of City, who last yeat we were competing with for players.
