    It's like getting on a roller coaster. Bitching and whinging the whole time your on it. You get off. See a big line and think "this ride must be good, the line is so long".

    When you get to the front it's the same damn roller coaster you were on before.

    Like anyone on this forum could cope if the club wasn't a basket case. Shit owner = shit club = no finals = more shit to talk about on forum.

    Let's just see what transpires eh?

    The deal isn't over the line and remember in this case it is Thompson being part of a consortium with FFA demanding local involvement.

    I don't mind if he is all about finding players making them better and selling them, itd be a nice change from the current standard of finding players and making them worse and having to wait until their contract is up.
    At least this way we will hopefully have some players playing decent football while they are here!

    Glass half full hey, its not a thought process used by many of us but im going to give it a try!

    seriously tho if the ffa want us sold and he has been keen to own us for some time now how long can it take to work out a deal ....... if either party hadnt got what they wanted by now you would just move on and look for other opportunities wouldnt you ? no way should it be taking this long to sort out a sale agreement !

    But if your Thompson waiting as long as possible is your go.

    The longer FFA have the club the less it costs him as they are keen to cut their losses and move on

    Smell the roses fellas, why is Thompson keen to invest in the Jets?.....certainly not out of the goodwill of his heart to make the Jets a powerhouse. Dundee United and his business interests are his priority, the Newcastle Jets are low down on his priorities. I'm not going to even attempt to guess what his overall agenda is in wanting to buy into the Jets but my gut feeling is that long term he is not the answer in bringing stability and continuity to the club. Fair enough if he is part of a consortium where he has input but I would be very wary if he were to have a majority stakehold and have the final say in decisions.

    His sister seems most likely to take over as chairwoman at Dundee if he steps away. 98% sure he has a daughter here

    CBA might have slowed things


    All in good time.
    I'm just keen to know if there'll be haggis at games.

    probably not, but I reckon everything at the stadium will be deep fried from here on...

    you'll probably also get a couple of potato chips/crisps with everything as well.
