Clutching at straws on 23:42 - Feb 24 with 2221 views | WicklowBlue | Soo someone who liked a clip online equals a signed and sealed financial deal? Honestly I do want to dare to dream and be excited.. but just not seeing it currently. All talk no trousers is how I would sum up all of the discussion up. Happy to have my trousers pulled down around my ankles for the greater good of course!!!! [Post edited 24 Feb 2021 23:45]

There are a lot of coincidences if there's nothing in this. We are precisely the sort of target his group would go for according to the website. I still doubt it's true purely because we aren't lucky enough to get away from Evans any time soon but there's some interesting stuff that once bundled all together gives a little bit of hope. Absolutely nothing concrete though obviously. |  |

Denying a rumour backed up by plenty of substance doesn’t make you intellectually superior, sunshine. |  |

Plenty of substance? He’s liked a few tweets and follows us on LinkedIn. Based on that, i’m buying Apple. |  | |  |

Clutching at straws on 21:44 - Feb 24 by SomethingBlue | It is odd that he would like that tweet - when pretty much all his other likes relate to Phoenix and Tucson. Could be any number of explanations of course. |
He's buying Norwood. ..... ... for Bristol City. |  |

By nature a rumour has no substance or evidence...equally rumours have nothing to do with intelligence. This is all complete conjecture! |  | |  |

Ok then, would you care to explain to me why an American investor who owns various clubs would follow a random English 3rd division side on twitter and LinkedIn, just a few weeks after he said he was close to investing in an English club? As Phil said, there’s not nothing in this. |  |

1) What substance? 2) What? |  |

Clutching at straws on 23:54 - Feb 24 with 2115 views | J2BLUE | I'm listening to an interview with Johnson. No hint of any investment outside America but one mildly interesting point was that he wants stadiums that are multi use. He mentioned concerts "and other rectangular sports". Portman Road 30,000 seats and 3-4 months a year with no games. Could maybe even have some sort of platform build to keep bands etc off the pitch and have events through the season? Big theme of sports centred real estate areas. Purely speculating but could there be some sort of deal done for the practice pitch? I think Ipswich council own the land? Maybe they'd see buildings on there in exchange for the potential benefits of a Premier League club? I realise there's straw clutching and then there's this post but i'm bored and we all love some false hope. That's why so many do the lottery when there are big rollovers. |  |

Fairly sure Phil and others have said they have heard of chatter on some level. There have been no specifics other than the odd poster getting carried away one way or another. [Post edited 25 Feb 2021 0:35]

I’d personally be worried why someone who buys clubs and other assets to make money and “tax efficient gains” - his words- is interested in a 3rd tier club that will take £80m+ of investment to get anywhere near the PL. And if we don’t, all that external debt would be called in as they simply removed another poorly performing asset from his portfolio There might be something in it, but I can’t see why someone with his investing history would want to and why we would want him |  | |  |

This. It is no surprise that Evans is open to offers. It is no surprise that there might be interest. All this trawling Twitter and LinkedIn and claiming some kind of special insight is just silly. [Post edited 25 Feb 2021 0:50]

I think the sentence "there's not nothing in it" fits in pretty well with the concept of clutching at straws. [Post edited 25 Feb 2021 5:00]
