@Jamie_Hudson_ He owns the club, he’s spent his money on it, he is the one who stands to lose/gain from any deal. I get that it’s not like selling a house because he represents thousands of fans, but it is his decision and we have to take him at his word that he’s doing it for the right reasons

Issue is listening to it, He’s chosen people HE thinks would be best. Now if that criteria is based on how he’s done things over his time as ownership then at least on pitch it’s not ideal #ColU

I think some credit has to be give for transparency. Cowling he explained the circumstances round each bid within realms of NDAs & Cowley has told everyone where he wants to strengthen without (obviously) naming names of players. Can’t ask for an awful lot more #colu

The ‘leave this club in the very best possible position’ comment has got me a little nervous 😬 #colu

I knew it would take an even more despicable human being to get Trump off the front pages #colu

@England_Pod Maybe the answer to the Foden/Palmer conundrum is…leave them both at home?

Maybe we dodged a bullet after all #colu

@SW_Help So I’m assuming all the subsequent trains are delayed too?

@_fennerbache Hello, I am sorry for the delay, this service has been delayed by a fault with the signalling system. ^GG

@SW_Help what’s going on with the 7:59 service from Portsmouth Harbour to Barnham. It just says delayed?

@EagleEyedColU Sorry, just saw it’s not Cambridge, in any case the point still stands

@EagleEyedColU Wonder what? Let’s not get players and backroom staff mixed up, especially at this level. It’s likely Cambridge just pay a little bit more or he lives closer to that way so the commute length/cost is less. It’s just a normal job.

We are a stepping stone club - fine. Staff leave frequently. But when it's to another L2 club, that's when you begin to wonder - unless it's for personal reasons. But if not that's where the takeover stuff comes into question - wages, support within the club etc. #ColU

Have you ever seen a man look more awkward?

@ArchiveColu Not to mention 18 PL apps

@ArchiveColu Tierney was the best LB in L1 when we were actually alright, so there shiuld only be one answer here

The JobServe XI (2008-) LB 🤔. #colu

Sad state of affairs when our best keeper of the last 20 years couldn’t catch or kick #colu

@Jamie_Hudson_ @002Tomo But has his investment ‘failed’? Yes, on the pitch we have gone backwards compared to when he took over, but you could argue we have regressed to the mean position where our history suggests we should be. Cat 2 academy, training grd & infrasture all way above our level

@002Tomo Because it’s unrealistic. That’s two now that have backed out. Sounds as if a fair deal was proposed. When you invest you have to understand if your investment fails you don’t get that money back and his investments have failed mate.

The amount of accusations thrown at RC based on absolutely no knowledge of the situation is incredible! No one has any idea what was discussed or why it fell through!! #colu

Given João Xavier’s very open support of the club on Insta less than a week ago, you, what has gone on that means a deal is now off? Lightwell wanted secrecy during talks, SAC were overly open and brought huge excitement. You have to wonder what Cowling wants… #ColU

Well done, we’re all crying #colu

Seen a lot of Akachukwu this season, always impressed. Mainly played in a free role due to Saints U21s system, can play as deeper 8 or support the ST. Holds the ball, links play really well in transition & has good numbers (4G, 4A). Should impact 1st team straight away #colu

Biggest news of Deadline Day is that somebody actually wanted to go to Reading surely?

@maxrushden Forget Mansfield never being mentioned on the pod, you know your club is destined never to be mentioned on the pod when a Brazilian intl is set for the most bizarre takeover in football history, the story is in effing the running order, but you’re still not mentioned!
