Why would either be lying?
Zaki has stated on Twitter that there are rumours but everyone should wait for formal announcements from the club. That is a perfectly normal position to take and is neither confirming or denying anything. Therefore he can't possibly be lying.
NMcW stated back in September/October that he expected positive news before the end of the season. I said at the time that I'd have been a little more cautious knowing how sensitive everyone is to timeframes. I stick to what I said that I'd expect something by the autumn but of course I'd be delighted if it was earlier.
Tiger said on the 5 minute forum that it was important to own/have control over our own stadium and we could expect some good news very soon. Now as
@horseman said, one man's "very soon" is another's "forever", so we're not anywhere closer for those desperate for definitive information.
Strange that you think my position is more accurate than the clubs after months of being told that I know nothing, so I won't get too carried away! But as always, I put the information out as I see it and it's for others to determine if it has any value or not. But I've yet to see anything from the club that suggests my views are wrong.
