    Don't believe what you read in the paper. They were not investors. They were exactly as I posted the other day.

    I have no idea why Edin wasn't there. They expected to see him. But they weren't investors. We spent several hrs with them after arranging somewhere they could have something to eat and watch the leverkusen / Stutgart game on TV.

    So was it Rhodes who wanted the flyover cancelled? Simple question....

    Indeed it is. WOTP wrote about a month ago that Rahic regrets buying into the club. That along with snippets these past few days told me he was looking to sell his share.

    Hopefully Rupp can come to an agreement on price, which should be considerably less than what he paid for them. As long as he is out of the picture which it would appear to be, is a step in the right direction. My guess is that Rhodes is proxy CEO and answerable to Rupp.

    I heard that Rhodes is the one buying back in, not sure if just Rahics share or both sets of shares. Could be wide of the mark but would make sense to me.

    Why not just show some humility.. you were wrong to say he was chatting nonsense about the whole thing.. get over it, get off your high horse and stop having unnecessary digs at people just because they were right and you were wrong!

    That would be very interesting; when he sold City I thought he had enough, but maybe he missed us:) What we need is steady investment year on year to steady the ship, not sure if Julian has the financial clout or will to do that, but hey in this world of change anything can happen.

    We need to keep Rupp interested and I think Rhodes would be able to do that

    Wasn't word on the street last week that the Telegraph article waa going to be 'explosive'? More of a damp squib.

    Either way, it's clear he realises there's no way back for him and he's gone in all but name. That might have to do for a while until the legalities are tied up.

    Here comes Walters sycophant. haha

    He has been no more right about anything than anyone else
    Everything said could have been pieced together by any other forum contributor.

    In actual fact, I made a post on here about a month ago stating pretty much was has become very evident this week.
    However, I didn't have any tangible evidence to back it up, and felt uneasy I could put some people in n awkward situation.
    Therefore instead of a triumphant announcement, I chose to throw it in mid-sentence in a innocuous thread.
    One or two picked up on it.

    Has the article been toned down in line with the cancellation of the flyover? Allowing Rahic to leave with some grace, wants to go, homesick, family unhappy etc etc might make him more amiable to striking a deal than if any shit there is has been flung about l?

    He’s probably the source quoted
