Hi, only my second post since god knows when. I logged back in as I wanted to make a plea for what its worth for people to cut those who brought the consortium rumour to our attention some slack. Jon the Stripe and his son Fanboy in particular have done so much good work for the club and we must and I do trust that this information was put into the public eye for the right reasons. I know its been rather quiet and its an emotive issue but I felt bad for some of the crap they were getting online. I know Jon is someone people behind the scenes trust and that this is nothing to do with any of the directors formerly connected to the club.
I like others await more news on this issue with much intrigue and lets hope if its true its a group who not only have a lot of money but also some kind of connection or commitment to our club and its values.
All the best
Dins

Good points, well made dinsdale. JTS has no history as a WUM, either on here or the defunct OF, and I do not think he would have made this public if those behind it were likely to be detrimental to the future of the club if they do become involved. The suspense is killing me, but I'm prepared to be patient! UTG.

And actually while we are at it.... Dinsdale are you the guy with a beard and glasses that always hangs around at Rovers press conferences for announcements? Much to the annoyance of certain members of staff?

There is no point waiting from Rovers press releases as they always happen about a week after everyone knows the news anyway !!!!

Why not just post this on the other thread, d as now we'll have another long thread with posters discussing whether they believe JTS etc or not?
At the end of the day you're not going to stop posters questioning whether or not JTS' tweet/posts are correct or not. Well not before Thursday when hopefully it'll be confirmed one way or the other.

For me it wasn't about whether people believed the story or not it was about questioning his and others integrity. Sorry for the inconveniance of an extra thread.

I know all about being used by people to leak information but i believe Jon is a bit less naive and a lot more known and respected to have fallen into any silly traps.
He does the right thing and thats what i wanted to get accross

Thank you that means a lot. If anyone thinks I'm enjoying this they are well wide of the mark. I stand to lose out quite a lot. Again I thank those who are supportive and to those who doubt me I understand your apprehension and hope to be proved right in the end or expect to be criticised. I'm a gashead at the end of the day just like everyone else. UTG

And just like others, being a Gashead doesn't mean you can just lie and get away with it.

Lie or do business in the correct way ? Should all deals be open to forum debate ?
