Has a formal bid been made? No.
Have offers been made? Yes.
There's your grey area.
How serious the offers are etc nobody knows probably not even the club know if they are serious offers or just testing the water.

Yes I saw that.
He was in Cardiff on Wednesday for his medical according to various sources (but mostly re-hashes of Danish media stories) which sound pretty reliable.
Strange that it has still not been confirmed.
If there was a problem with the medical you would think that would be known by now? There has to be a reason.
My guess it is either an issue with his contract terms (either personal terms, or maybe a change from loan to permanent?), or it is linked to Horvath's situation, or it is just more evidence that our club has got a problem making and communicating decisions?

I wonder if anyone was about at Howell’s school to register her today?

We are lower league now. Splott or Llanrumney High School more likely.

3) This alleged consortium first approached the club on Christmas Eve last year and has been in discussions ever since.
4) They were in the UK in mid-July for meetings at the club.
5) The South Africans have had access to the club’s books, they were granted exclusivity and underwent a due diligence process.
6) It's the closest Vincent Tan has ever been to selling the club (he stated that was a fact).
7) The alleged takeover was moving along ‘nicely’ and was ‘very far down the line’.
8) Steve Borley was significantly instrumental in the process - he was described as being ‘excellent’ in his dealings with ‘all parties’.
9) He knows the prospective new owners like Brian Barry-Murphy, and our new manager was aware that a takeover was on the cards when he took the job.
Interestingly, Si also claimed he was the first to publicly mention Gary Otto, having done so accidentally on his ‘members only’ show (whatever that may be), and he suggested the alleged South African consortium may have been involved in the process to appoint BBM.
Given what was stated at the meeting between club officials and supporters on Saturday, how much of the above do you now believe?
I’ve not heard of the guy until recently but looking at his channel he does appear to have some good ideas.
Whilst it appears some of the content recently may have been exaggerated, some of the content is more nearer to the current situation than what is being reported in the local media.
He has a passion for the club and these channels are just a modern way of communicating.
We have posters on here who regularly host and participate on phone in shows and most of the discussion is about what’s already been discussed on the unofficial forums. Very predictable and not very compelling.

He gets most of it from here and the other one.
