Weird listening to CWR rather than Radio Four this early.

Put it on to hear the news that somebody bought a cabbage in a shop and the price scanned wrong.

Gilbert straight in asking about sisu.
Says he knows Dermot but didn't know joy. Couple of weeks ago he approached joy.
Link important because of the speed of being able to do it and the trust.
Share holding is 85% and what it is.
He loves it is run smoothly. The club
Great chance to get stadium

Willing to pay £25m for the CBS says King

Seems a very round figure to pay for the stadium (£25mil), as though plucked out the air.
Being a city fan makes me cynical!

Watch Ashley bid £26m 
I mean big words to say he want the arena for £25m without doing any due diligence.

Right so no due diligence but would like the chance to buy the stadium. Who is this aimed at? The council can’t just pull MAs bid and give it to this guy? Guess we’ll know a bit more after the court case but this has a strong chance of going absolutely nowhere.
Has anyone listened to the extended interview and know if he takes on the club without the stadium if MA gets it?

Let's be honest, ALL of us know totally naff all about this situation. My only conclusion, after stepping back, is remember 95% of you guys on here are totally negative pessimists and maybe, just maybe, the good Lord has seen how we City fans have suffered and is going to give us the next 20 years or more of Man Cityish style success. Amen to that!

after sleeping on it. Even more convinced after hearing Doug this deal is just one last roll of the dice from sisu. No mention of robins or the team in his statement. Just all about the ground. 12 hours before court case starts for it.
the amount of naive and gullible posters on here is scary.
