Since I was one of the voices calling for calm, my position was always that we should wait for more concrete facts than people jumping to conclusions (whether those conclusions have turned out to be right or not!) Now we are getting rather a lot more chatter, I am more than willing to jump on the PANIC! bandwagon.

AZ balance sheet:

Positives:

- Single-handedly financed the signing of all time footballing great Jason Roberts.
- Signed an exciting partnership with Marussia F1, a team so poor that they’d lose a road-race around Whitley to a Ford Capri.

Negatives:

- Sacked one of the best and most popular managers this club has had.
- Saddled us with Nigel Adkins.
- Saddles us with high-earning crocks like Drenthe and Bridge.

Cheers Anton, it has been.....rubbish, mainly.

That backs up @flyonthewallrfc about someone flying in from Houston.

He got a lot of unfair stick for his tweets before xmas about the financial mess we are in and what he knew of the new ownership. Knowing who his source is, he's well worth a follow!

I'm not interested in "bids" - they mean and usually come to nothing.

They take weeks to finalise and may not be completed until after the end of the month.

I'm much more interested in signed agreements
