An 82er mate of mine reckons we may be getting new investors from the Middle East. Just passing on the message and he's normally bang on with stuff, so please don't shoot the messenger.

It's also on the t'other forum.
Ive been sent a share split certificate from the Jersey Financial Services Registry this morning that shows there was a share split but it doesnt mean its for investment. It could be for tax advantages or a precurser to some investment? It could be something, it could be nothing.
Who knows at this stage?!
Edit:
I'm not ITK about anything, I was sent it from a fellow forum member around 11am asking if I knew anything. I know nothing.

I did sign up to Pirates Pot this morning but wasn't expecting to have been announced as a new investor.

Interesting. There was a group of individuals being shown around on Saturday by a suited person, there was also one box open in the West stand in which those individuals watched the game.

How could someone have 25% and still have a controlling share? Sorry don’t know about these things.

I saw that too. I said to my mate that looks like a new signing up in the box there being shown around. Maybe it was investors.

More the 100 pages of whataboutery, further ITK gossip, debate and insults that follow. Heaven forbid we be a football forum that ever just talked about the football! Haha

There is no solid substance or direct proof to this train of thought, however, when Wael arrived I remember looking through his connections and achievements.
One thing stood out back in 2016 which was his involvement in supporting the Prince of Jordan for a place on the top table with FIFA.
The prince missed out on the FIFA role and I always thought that maybe, just maybe he would play some part in Rovers’ future and that Wael would get us to a certain point where new investment would be welcomed and the prince would be a quiet benefactor in the background.
A quick scan today and spotted on YouTube what looked very much like Hani at the Princes' wedding in June this year.
This could easily be 2 plus 2 equalling 5 of course but always had a feeling when Wael arrived that the prince would have a hand in this, even if indirectly through business networking channels.
Time will tell if what Dr F has been told is correct.
