CornwallRam got a reaction from Carl Sagan in Song for our new era.
We need to adopt this as our new anthem. Perfect tribute to our new owner.

Do they make wheel clamps big enough for private jets?

It should be down to SSS getting it off Kirchner

I suspect (with absolutely no evidence to back my claim up) that Kirchner has been burning through other people's cash to get this far, not his own.

Sick joke whoever said smooth radio had announced the deal. My ears, my ears. I don’t know if I can take one for the team any longer!

Then why are you making an equivocation between the two?! ?
DC's statements have been fewer and far more measured. There is no edginess or frustration showing from any of the parties involved, Companies House details are being updated in a timely way etc. I would never rule out the possibility of last minute hiccups, but this process seems infinitely calmer than the Kirchner bid, which gives me confidence it will go through.

I'm going to assume the best and hope to see Clowes complete the takeover today or tomorrow.
If that proves to be correct, it's amazing how uncomplicated it suddenly seems to have become. As soon as someone appears with the will and the finances, the deal breezes through. No bank holiday issues, no complaints in the press about being ignored by Quantuma, nothing held up by anti-money laundering checks etc
It's almost like the others were cheapskates or fantasists.

Now I’m not saying I have any ITK knowledge but I’ve just been told that the takeover is completed and may be announced this evening.
Here’s hoping ?

Do we know who is responsible for bringing in Festy/Plange/Ebiowei last year? I hope it wasn't Rooney and whoever it was is still here. Was last season our best ever for recruitment? Spent nothing and brought it some great kids and quality experienced pros.

My understanding is that we get two years of restrictions as part of the adminstration process. This is extended by a year if we go for the 35% over 3 years option.
The reasons are supposedly two fold:
Firstly, to enshrine sustainability into the club restructure. If, for example, we're limited to a 25 man squad with a maximum wage bill of £75k per week, we ought to be able to run at a profit. It will effect income, but we'll be expected to trim unnecessary expenditure to accommodate. Two years down the line and we should look like a stable club, ready for investment to take us forward.
Secondly, it's part of the punishment. It's part of the reaction to Leicester's actions when they wiped most of their debts and new owners came in and 'bought' the league. The restrictions are there to stop 'big' clubs from wiping debts and then outspending everyone else.
As @angieramalluded to in an earlier post, in terms of spending, we are going to be a small League 1 club for the next two to three years. Maybe a genius of a manager could squeeze us into the play offs, but it's staggeringly unlikely.
We need to reign in our expectations and and celebrate still having a club to support.
I wonder if it's possible to patent a Mel Morris dartboard?
