You can bet your bottom dollar IF anything positive happens that some blinkered zealot will still lavish praise on Bates for getting LUFC to the point where it did happen

I still call male cow faeces on this one, but I would love it if Snodgrass got rewarded for his commitment to the club with a nice pay rise, for not being greedy with the money while someone like White comes back with a grin on his face saying "ready to sign boss" and gets told where to go.

Meh. The only general news you can believe on Twitter is when a celebrity tweets to squash another twitter rumour that they are dead.

@PhilHayYEP: Been told of two separate parties who are interested in #lufc, one seems to be much further down the line than the other.

Re: Official TOMA thread
a LUST board member was caught cutting down people who were quick to dismiss the rumour. Not much to it but this is the internet equivalent of a twinkle in the eye when your dad told you he doesn't know if you're getting the present you asked for for Christmas. LUST have been saying for weeks there's something big in the pipeline but they can't tell what it is until more progress has been made. They have publicly stated they have had a lot of potential buyers contact them with interest and that they've had positive communication with such potential buyers.
With the credibility they have developed and won't want to lose by fuelling rumours that have nothing to them, I think there might be something in it. TSS explained it quite well. TSB are saying the same thing, they have credibility that has been built over several years that they wouldn't want to ruin by pushing something that wasn't true. With the involvement TSB have with LUST I'd imagine they'd be in the know about it.

ken bates thinks the internet is just one of those horror stories you tell your kids to make them behave themselves. What he's not aware of is that the Internet has created a social media monster that has the potential to take him down.Molenaar wrote:You know what's really sad?
Ken will have someone scanning the internet forums and reading him out the best bits, because he loves it! He'll be seeing how keen we are to be rid of him, he'll play out the tension by keeping quiet for a bit, and then pop up to say 'I'm still in charge!'....
