Just for me and Purps, has Glad heard how things are sorted out in the boardroom? 😉 Lovely sunny morning in Bowthorpe so I though I'd have a coffee out in the backyard. Glad was there pegging out her smalls. I say 'smalls' but in truth they were gret ol' white bloomers! I thought thank goodness the sun is a bit higher now spring has sprung. But I thought too soon and up went the linen prop causing a blackout over half the street. Kathy could have come round for a coffee rather than go all the way to America to see an eclipse. Glad spotted me "hev yew heard anymore from that Steff?" "It's Sheff" I said "and I think he's a bloke." It's useless really because although she wears her hearing aid she won't put the batteries in for fear of frying her brain... Anyway, I had to shout but managed to tell her about your governance issues. She put her full wisdom face on and said " Tell har what a lood of ol' squit!" "With Daylia and that Zooey woman calling the shots the governance will be the best in football" Then she said "blookes think thay knowetorl but would yew want that Sooonak over Thatcha?" "Who woont hev the queen back over Charles?" "His old woman has already had to step in and he's oonly bin on.the throone about five minuts!" Harsh I thought... Then she came right over to the fence and with morning breath whispered "Afterorl, it weren't Mister Beeton's book of Househoold Management.... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shefcanary 2,444 Posted April 24 (edited) 24th April 2024 then. I am surprised that it wasn't a May date, but there again perhaps the club's potential involvement in the play-offs and potential promotion gave the EFL a kick up the jacksy to complete their work before the club didn't fall out from under their jurisdiction for a twelve months! So, given where we currently are in terms of the play-offs, I don't think we will hear much from Attanasio until our season has formally ended; he wouldn't want to upset the way the run in is being managed at this stage. However I'm sure he has already sorted out hotels for May 26th should they be needed. After the Spring bank holiday we should see plenty of announcements - if we're lucky even from the City Hall balcony! Edited April 24 by shefcanary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkngood 1,087 Posted April 24 Attanasio's group have now formally been allotted 195,012 shares, which will see his shareholding rise from 21.5pc to 40pc. The American has spent £5m ($6.02m) on the shares. The agreement also saw Attanasio's group provide the club with a £33.64m debt payment package that has helped to ease the burden on their financial situation so he has paid around 25 pound a share 18.5 pc only cost 5 million is only about 25 / 30 million for the club seems cheap to me ? the debt of 33.64 mil must be a loan that will be wiped off unless he is going to get the club very cheaply ? i know i am thick it seems i am missing something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
