Was hoping the Post would do a follow-up story and flesh out more details. What is the background of the investors, their net worth, what level of investment are they prepared to put in and their ambitions? I wonder what assurances have been given considering "there have also been offers from America and a consortium containing local businessmen but Wael Al-Qadi’s desire to retain a position of influence and control, coupled with his own scepticism of what’s being offered, has caused talks to break down"? Tbf they did that when Wael bought the club. When he was being labelled a 'Multi Billionaire' and all the other nonsense. Some of the stuff being spouted by our fans then was a total embarrassment. I think Weal has learnt a lot since then! I don’t think any press reporter knows more than us at the moment. To me the silence at the moment might be leading up to a big reveal! Planning could have been agreed today and it’s funny the trialist has not been announced or our new mega signing! Barton said another 3 so who is the other one? Away kit still to be released and the promise of something to commemorate the 140 years! So much going on and I would expect a few answers before Friday however as others have said we still need the EFL to agree to any new owner / co owner. Could be a very exciting few weeks, fingers crossed Barton has the rest of the back room staff agreeing to his strategy gif the first three games.

How do you know the trialist is signing? He was by definition a “trialist” on trial. He may well sign but that one line in your post sums up people today. Read online, presume, read online, presume…. And repeat.

Are you just on a wind up? The BP publish a story which suggests the takeover could be transformational as far as a new stadium and a championship push is concerned and you are "frankly astonished" fans want to know a bit more. The article clearly states the deal is set to be concluded later this month. So why can’t you and a few others wait until then? I'm more than content to wait but like anything else affecting the club there's nothing stopping us discussing the subject whilst we wait for more news. It's not like we are tweeting the club demanding more information. The forum would be pretty boring if all we could discuss is the next fixture.

You forgot to add JB is now hiding all his daily Rovers related tweets behind a pay wall, which is a sorry state of affairs for a Rovers manager.

Since Joey joined the club he has never put out daily tweets about what’s going on at the club, the odd one or two now and again but never daily and certainly not that many. I’ve seen lots of his tweets in the past and most of them apart from being about football/ other sports , people passing away and the odd political comment are not even Rovers related.

Who said anything about the past I said NOW hiding all his daily Rovers related tweets, he's tweeted at least one a day this week. Other posters suggested they would be re-posted in the media but that's clearly not the case.

I'm sure I saw "Welcome home Conner" on Waels Instagram.

Last time he said about signing players, people said about it straight away.

Aside from the money let's hope these guys bring some expertise and experience to the running of the club.
