Was mentioned a few times in the match-day chat today. Apparently been looking to sell for a few months.

I don't have any information regarding this rumour, just repeating what was said.

There's been several rumours.

A local business owner was reported to be interested, he squashed the rumour via Twitter. Basically most people don't believe Mr Hardy has enough money to even invest in a League Two team.

Then we had the fictional 'Russian' investor that turned into a potential buyer - somewhere along the lines even the nationality changed. There have been rumours that the trust are preparing to make a move - combined with a couple of business people but I honestly can't see that happening. I know of two others, yet I think it's all just rumours. In this division it would only be a fan or local business that would purchase a club struggling to realise it's own identity. If the Trew's are looking to sell, until it happens it should be treated as nothing more than a rumour.

There's nothing solid or remotely swaying opinion that there's merit behind any of them.

A field where dreams become reality.

Probably just wishful thinking. 

Would you rather we sold the club back to the Trust and struggle to pay the milk man, the trews have stabilised the club and have forked out the cash for new signings

Or have someone who can spend wisely and actually invest in success? The money that has been claimed to have gone into Notts is a waste.

I think a majority of football minded millionaires could have gained back to back promotions with the reported figures, all we have to show is expenses after expenses. Danny Haynes and the likes.

But is that down to the owner or the monkey he employs that brings in the nuts and dead wood?

Whilst I'm 100% sure that off the field we have definitely improved since the trust. However, on the field? We've got progressively worse, and we now occupy a similar position to where the trust had us. If the product and results on the field of play are going to remain so bad (and history under the Trews suggest they will) then what happens off the pitch is largely irrelevant, sadly.

Precisely. Someone with 1/4 of the money but able to spend it wisely.

Well the owner employes the monkeys, and sacks them too. How long do we go on keep blaming the managers, and not the puppet master hiring them?

If we could get another owner who would spend wisely and do things that are best for the club, but trew has tried to do things right but its obviously not worked

I personally feel that the only thing the fans hold against him, is his ineptitude at hiring a decent manager.

The mistake he constantly makes is hiring managers who apply for the job, rather than going out and identifying someone who is already in work and paying the compensation.

I know that every managerial appointment is a risk, but it appears the fans know more than he does in this department and the fans end up being right.

I wouldn't want him to to sell, I thank Mr Trew for everything he has done for this football club off the field and you cannot argue that he has not pumped money into the playing side, but he has been very badly advised with regard to manager recruitment and must have thrown a lot of money away paying them off.

 

I hope he sells simple as that he has no idea or any clue he is arrogant and he has got this mad point that he is trying to prove.

Hes obsessed with trying to find the next Eddie Howe instead of someone who's managed we had Lee Clarke mark cooper but we employ a nobody and it's looking very costly at the minute.

Also this transfer comitee managed to beat Shaun derrys record of players bringing in there own players we are gettin worse I'd rather have someone who understands football for me it's time they went they have tried and there failing each season

but when you pump 20 million into the club and you're back in league 2 sitting 18th in the league gettin out done by the leagues worst team a manager who has no expierence or any identity of style play something ain't working.

We are a lot worse off we bring in 40+ players every season even tho were promised a small squad of quality not quantity moniz was a risk becuase he didn't understand English football yes.

But then to bring in someone who has never even managed in football is suicidal and everyone saying we can't go down seriously look at that table it is very possible and can easily happen 

Northamphton had no money and they were flying Acrrington no money play offs Mansfield not a bigger budget then us right up there Crawley no money higher then us tho.

Wycombe not loaded but still up there 

they haven't all spent 20 million
