They did nothing to quell the rumours though,
Is that their job?

They're quite happy to dismiss rumours surrounding the bid.
What makes you think they knew what this bloke was going to say on the radio yesterday?
They didn't say they knew the contents of the interview, just that it could be interesting.
They did nothing to quell the rumours though, they had every oppotunity to do so. I didn't find the ranting of an ex director interesting at all.
Sorry OG but I think you need to pay a bit more heed......I draw your attention to the comments and speculation concerning the JJ interview, where it was nudge nudge wink wink "this could be very interesting".
Instead we get just a mild piece of bitterness from a good supporter of the club - but one who obviously has no intention of being the ralllying point for a rival bid.
I just think that we have a number of 'insiders' who are not enjoying an outsider taking over 'their' club but have no intention and/ or capacity to do anything about it. Then we have the FT who have - in my opinion been wretched throughout the whole business - who are on the one hand pretending to be really serious and on the other trying to show off by innuendo and the dropping out of bits and pieces.
For goodness sake this should all be sorted by now; a new owner in and changes starting - e.g. moving on the existing 'manager' so we get someone in with something about him.
Do you think his comments were a load of tosh like most other people?
But I was responding to your allegation that they were regularly talking about alternative bids. They, and others, have already pointed out that this was a simple statement that the interview might be interesting. I cannot see how even the most hard-bitten anti-trust person can see it fits what you alleged.
The FT have never 'amplified' the existance of other options. they hav suggested that other options were available, but didn't say they thought they were better, just that they could be considered. (not unreasonable IMO)
i believe they have stated that the club being out of local control is a concern, JJ felt the same, and if i'm honest i would prefer a local millionaire, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't support a MM bid, in the absence of that option.
(Redditch - 'i don't understand 'trimming their sales'?)

Any news on the legal meetings taking place today?
I think it should have been sails:
dictionary definition is:
adjust (sails) to take best advantage of the wind. • adjust the forward and after drafts of (a vessel) by changing the distribution of weight on board, esp. cargo and ballast. • stow (a bulk cargo) properly in a ship’s hold by use of manual labor or machinery. • keep or adjust the degree to which (an aircraft) can be maintained at a constant altitude without any control forces being present. • [ intrans. ] adapt one's views to the prevailing political trends for personal advancement.
Local Millionaire that doesn't exist or Foreign Millionaire that does. Whats your choice!?
