I know one of the alleged interested White Knights have withdrawn their interest. A few people are all mouth it seems.

Shouldn't be anything to worry about, after all there are many millionaires waiting in the wings, apparently the only reason they've not come forward in the past was because they didn't want to work with the existing board.

Personally I though he had more metal.

Let's hope we can still get someone who can get a grip. A shade of Pink maybe???

So if France is out of the frame (who you would have thought would be the best hope given they already are the main shirt sponsors) are we down to one?

Maybe the boat has sailed. If Ted had stepped aside a few years back, before the banking crisis, people may have been more willing to take over.

Right. So he's not interested after all and now it's Ted's fault ? Hmm strange logic

THE DEFINITION OF INSANITY IS DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULTS

Apparently Ted is also to blame for the credit crunch, global warming and third world famine. All of these could have been avoided if Ted had just stepped aside 5 years ago

I understand logic is a strange concept to the rose tinted brigade but here goes

The logic is that pre the banking crisis people had alot more spare cash to invest in a club like ours. Ted has presided over the club getting into trouble with the tax man twice in twelve months and not having a pot to pee in - the most recent mismanagement of the club has almost certainly led to the books being worse and therefore even less attractive to a potential investor, at a time when they have less spare cash to put into something that they know will give them no financial return.
