dudevillaisnice Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I think Lerner has spoken to him as they are pretty close but don't think it's takeover related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan4Life Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Also, apparently Randy's back in the UK. Back to pick up another sack of cash now he's flogged Delph. epic fail... right there 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I'm even more convinced a takeover is imminent now. Delph probably does love the club but there are only so many relegation battles a player can take. Something must be happening for him to stay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubbs Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Or maybe he's one of the few footballers left who actually can show loyalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) Even if we were to be taken over QIA tonight and UEFA dropped FFP dropped at the same time. We'd still be playing catch up with Man City. So I don't think this Delph news has anything to do with a takeover.

Jareth Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I'd have thought that any prospective new owner would be up to date on all the players and would be looking to keep the best ones - maybe they 'revealed' themselves to Fab and he couldn't resist staying. That or Randy went all pyscho and put a gun to Delph's preggers wife's head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really don't think Delph staying means there's a takeover happening.

If there is, the chances of it being discussed with players is pretty slim Yep agreed, in fact I'd say non existent, more likely he would have given been reassurances that the club will invest in the squad over the summer. Anything takeover related would be commercially sensitive, certainly not something you'd discuss with playing staff.. In any case if / when a takeover does happen, who knows what the new owner has planned. One thing is sure, anything the current owner / management have to say about a prospective new owner is speculative at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daweii Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Even if we were to be taken over QIA tonight and UEFA dropped FFP dropped at the same time. We'd still be playing catch up with Man City. So I don't think this Delph news has anything to do with a takeover. That's the thing. As much as I want this takeover to happen it won't change much other than likely make players even more unobtainable as clubs start to take the piss. With FFP we can't catch up and without FFP we'd have to outspend Manchester City by a large amount as you know that without FFP they would spend £300 million a season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daweii Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 The takeover if it's happening has probably all been settled and finalised, but you don't announce to the world "Hey! We have $22 billion now" in the middle of a transfer window. The second you do that all of our targets go up in price by £10+ million.. So this delay likely isn't bad news, it's likely just getting us one last transfer window before clubs start overcharging us.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
