royal67 Genuinely excited by this..... My only concern is how long McD will remain at the club..... Last thing we want is some jobless ex-PL 'big name' coming in......


Agreed, nothing changes with the management team as far as I'm concerned. They've been exemplary... IF this all goes through and money starts flowing, let's not be one of those douchebag clubs. Please.

SJM will still be the chairman, so I doubt we will see any major overhauls. SJM makes it seem like an investment and not a takeover.


Largely irrelevant, the Russian will be the majority shareholder.....

I was trying to be positive. :?

I like our little tin-pot put together team and the fact we can rub shoulder with the big boys sometimes. Makes me feel proud. Money flooding in will screw us over one way or the other.

We'd better get rid of Molly Malone and adopt some Russian folk songs.

Along the Petersburg Road,
along the small lane
to the Tverskoi-Yamskoi Quarter
with a little bell ...

He writes to his dear one,
to me, a note,
a small note to me,
a sad message:

"Don't sit, Dunya,
so long in the evening,
and don't burn the candles
of the clear wax!

errr Reading Fc how mighty we'll be (clap clap)
