Pretty sure it's a new ownership but Pearson staying in a role to make sure it's a smooth transition.

It's happened in other change of ownerrships previously

Something is being sorted, my bet is minority share or some kind of sponsorship or partnership arrangement whatever that could be but they’re being really tight lipped about it. That’s why if someone says they’ve been told it’s a takeover lead by any specific individual or individuals I’d call BS. Even the usual ITK’s don’t know on this one.

I don't think it'll be a full buy out.... yet. My betting is Thirkill getting a minority stake for a cash injection.

This, I know people say they wouldn’t believe anything AP says but without mentioning AT by name that’s exactly how he described it from the beginning. A cash injection in exchange for equity. Silly rumour season started after that but if history has taught us anything it’s that AP is more likely to over promise then under promise, don’t think he was being coy. Maybe it might lead to a takeover in the future who knows.

I also don’t buy this they’re buying the club but Adams’s staying on as CEO for continuity it makes no sense. If he had a chance to get his money back I suspect he’d be long gone, don’t think that’s any secret wouldn’t see him wanting to stick around. It also makes no sense that a shrewd business man would buy a failing organisation and keep the same person running it, they’d want their own CEO in who they trust to turn things around.

AP’s statement yesterday was a bland cut and paste offering.
Hopefully this is because things are happening in the background. I’m worried if not. We’ve heard a lot of words in the past that have amounted to not much.

Need a fresh injection, not only of money, but energy and ideas.

Nathan Cleary fancies a year in Super League cos he's missing his UK based floozy.
Could you imagine.

Would only be Rovers or Warrington who would afford it, Wigan possibly but doesn’t seem like their style nowadays.

I’ve not seen the story but hopefully the location would work against Rovers, his Mrs plays for Everton so he’d want to be in that location.

What if we offered him 6 days a week off as long as he just turns up matchday with his boots?

I’m a little in the know - I gently brought the scoop that new money was on its way via an email I received from within the Club.
It’s not Adam’s money in play here.

Adam isn’t making the decisions.

There must be a genuine reason the new ‘owner’ and ‘money guy’ Adam Thirkell doesn’t want any publicity at this stage.

Adam Thirkell runs the Club and is using Richie Myler as his proxy.

This is NOT AP’s money and AP doesn’t own 50% or more of the Club anymore.

Hence the uninspiring HDM article yesterday.
At any point did AP say he was excited?
Did he say he was reenergised ?

The announcement will come at some point but for me it’s now

‘In Adam (T) we Trust’

So much in the know you've got his name wrong. It's Andrew Thirkill.
