THE TAKEOVER IS DONE 20:38 - Apr 3 with 138092 views | greyhound | Happy Easter one and all. Hold on to your hats and refresh every 5 minutes throughout Wednesday and Thursday, the deals been done and completion confirmed. As Paul Cook hinted we are in for a very exciting summer. Its dragged on but now we can focus onwards and upwards. |  | | |  |
THE TAKEOVER IS DONE on 11:47 - Apr 7 with 4524 views | JammyDodgerrr | Interesting in the Athletic piece, Marcus actually owns 5% of Gamechanger, whilst i initially read it as 5% of ITFC. So the club is owned just by Gamechanger and fans at this point? |  |

From the same article: "Johnson, Berke Bakay and Mark Detmer will own 5 per cent of the vehicle themselves, while the other 90 per cent will be owned by a US pension fund - ORG Portfolio Management." The 'vehicle' being Gamechanger you'd assume. |  |

THE TAKEOVER IS DONE on 12:01 - Apr 7 with 4239 views | N2_Blue | Well hands up from me....I was wrong and so was what I was hearing regarding the takeover having stalled. So apologies to all those I said it wasn't likely to happen until at least divisional status was confirmed. Anyway happy to be wrong. I still have plenty of reservations but very happy that there can be a new start and I like any fan really hope this is the start of a new dawn. Plenty to be excited about but I will still carry a little trepidation. COYB |  |

As stated already - i read it in the club statement that Evans was retaining 5% of ITFC, rather than 5% of Gamechanger. I've seen others commenting the same on here already which i why i thought i would post it. |  |

THE TAKEOVER IS DONE on 11:42 - Apr 7 by PhilTWTD | Nothing like that! It had stalled, would have been done a while ago if it had been on track. The source who had given me the other info wasn't aware that things had moved on as suggested. I did have another good source message me to say it was back on at the weekend and I and another board user were even looking into ORG as a result of that. But I was hearing too much conflicting info, even this morning when I'd got a story written to say it was done was being told by people I would assumed to have known if it was done that it wasn't. |
Phil , the deal never stalled, it was always going to go ahead but you have to play down these things as all parties involved would have done until signed, sealed and delivered. |  | |  |

Not how I was hearing it, there was a significant impasse. May well have been someone's negotiation tactic, of course. |  | |  |

Perhaps as I previously said that he was keeping five per cent of the club, which is slightly wrong in that it's five per cent of Gamechanger rather than the club overall. |  | |  |

That is actually a really savvy move from Marcus - can't fault his business acumen. |  |

You're a good egg really J2 I really had no desire to clash with you but didn't like being accused of trolling. Glad you must be having great senses of excitement and don't have to disappear for a month!! I still have my concerns, and still don't see how a pension fund can invest in a football club...i mean seriously how many clubs return profit, even when they are successful but not the time to worry about that now. A new start, and new hope...fingers crossed we get out of this division next season, as I don't think it will happen this year. I'd hope this would give the squad fresh inpetus for the remainder of the season with so much to play for but the players seem to know they are not part of this new start,(even more so if we did get promoted) and maybe that's another reason they are not performing. |  |
