I wonder where that poster is who said hes never looking on here again after it was suggested that " The Interview" and an imminent takeover was likely rubbish.😂
So, if there’s nothing to the takeover speculation, what have he, Tan and Choo been doing all summer?
I think it's more likely Tan has been told not to sell, don't you?Quote:

Imminent perhaps not but I’d say it’s fairly likely Tan has moved the goalposts. For christs sake, even WalesOnline were reporting on itQuote:

Not a chance in hell that he's rich enoughQuote:

Might not be the same person's bidding this time though, granted 👍Quote:

The concern I had and still have is Tan will try to run the club on a tight, almost break even budget. That's fine, it's his and Dalman's money, but we could see ourselves languishing in league 1 for years without some decent investment in the playing staff..
If Vincent Tan is committed to getting this club back to the Championahip then he has a funny way of showing it. The season starts and we haven’t made one signing. Really committed that.
Why fans bother to meet with Dalman time and time again I don’t know. Must be an ego thing.
