Why would you ask that? Brearley was dismissed out of hand by Allen
Publicly, perhaps; privately, I believe that DA was prepared to loan Brealey the money he needed to "buy" the club.

I wouldn't know about that but DA was scathing, saying iirc that the offer wasn't worth peeing on! Hes also said fwiw that hes not selling until we are back in L1 !

I'd like to know how a person gets entitled to be considered for a loan. Do you have to be a pigeon fancier? Can I have one?
Get it on, bang the gong , get it on

That was a different offer, he said he shook hands on Brearley's apparent offer back in January, which AC said would remain the same even if we were relegated.

Is anything happening then or are we just guessing because someone spotted a couple of suits? Seems too quiet on here if things have stepped up.

Are you just making that up or is that a genuine rumour? Never know what is substantiated or just made up nonsense on here

Surely a joke based on two supposed previous turned down bids?

No idea who it is but Graham from the DT just tweeted this...
“The #Spireites takeover rumours have legs. Putting two and two together that's likely why Allen's recruitment is 'on hold.' Trying to firm up names behind the takeover bid but believe it's imminent.”

Brealey and Kenworthy have a connection going back to Kenworthy's last apparent involvement in football, at Grantham around 1998, when Reg was involved in that club.
It's nice to be able to Trust again.
