Few rumours flying around this evening regarding an announcement. I'm even hearing both parties have reached an agreement (from one, often overly optimistic gashead). Anyone got anything concrete? Some of the Twitter sources are a little dubious...

So the only rumours are from Chimp, who I think actually invented `Fake news'?

People on fb referring to the news coming from a forum source, Forums saying it came from FB!
Donald Lansdown is this you're doing?

Are these false facts or true facts? Rumour spreading is more about the reaction and attention generated by unsubstantiated scenarios rather than constructive discussion.

If Chimp has mentioned it, then don't hold your breath.
I find it funny how so many keep falling for him. Complete WUM

On the basis that nobody else is, I'm buying in to this one. Stoked that we're going to get this over the line at last. Should I book my air fare for the opening game yet?

Do they read Viz, think it's factual, and retell the events covered as a snapshot of modern life? The problem is it goes from 'a WUM said...' to 'everyone knows that...'. Not that it matters in this case. I'll wait for news, rather than rumours of news of news.

Keith Chimp is both a reliable and consistent source of information. I am very intelligent.

Chimp does get some very solid information but sometimes he is well wide of the mark especially regarding historic events. There is a "rumour" that there will be some news from within the club this week which will be bigger than the normal Thursday press stuff but I think a few people have taken that to mean the stadium. Let's hope it is.

Let's hope it is. Chimp just retweets and rehashes rumours from elsewhere and hedges his bets. Some rumours come true some don't! A few people have said these particular rumours started elsewhere first and from normally 'reliable sources' whatever that means (well, I know what that means, but don't know what other rumours they've got right in the past!) I think we're all so desperate for news that we all WANT it to be true, but until my bum is physically sat in a seat inside the ground I won't believe it! Having said that if the current regime say it's going ahead I'm much more inclined to trust them from the outset than previously after all the false dawns we've had in the past! I'm not sure where the original rumours originated - from my perspective if this is a dead duck I'd rather it was killed off once and for all and we move on, or if it's a goer get on with it! I know patience is a virtue but I hope hard news either positive or negative comes our way soon!

To be fair, the new owners inherited an unfunded basket case of a project 12 months ago, a year to turn that around would be good going. A few more days for good news won't kill us
