Good Evening,
Now first things first there has been plenty of abuse angled at our twitter feed today. However Upon reading this I am sure you think rationally and realise just how this is going to play out.
Now Lerners intentions are clear, and a broker has been appointed. Do people seriously believe that the club have just started looking? Yes Everton and Newcastle are for sale, however their owners did not release similar statements. Todays words from Lerner and Krulak (Strange) seemed a goodbye for me and I am sure they did to you too.
What we know and expect as of 20:43 tonight.
Firstly the following information has come from numerous sources who cannot be named as their credibility and jobs would be under threat. These sources range from club staff, one ex player and a current 1st team player who has an axe to grind.
We are told that Lerner has held discussions with representatives of Ellison, Anschutz and Davis. Two of our three sources have confirmed that one consortia have already entered into the fit and proper persons test as part of the buyout process. At first they were reticent to reveal names etc however they confirmed that reps were at Hull game but stopped short of saying who they were on behalf of. They stressed that this is further down the line than the statements suggest. In terms of timescales they suggested it could be done by mid-June.A manager has been approached which coincides with Lamberts negative demeanour. Why would he fear for his job if Lerner had nobody lined up etc.
Several messages with others have been exchanged tonight with Ellison still clearly the favourite. All I will say is you might doubt the credibility of our tweets which sometimes don't come to fruition but our sources are very reliable.
I say this with confidence, come next season we will be under new ownership.
Thanks
