Anyone seen the tweet by SD last night that's posted over the road?
States towards the end of it that you will see if I have done a deal in my best interests or the football club. Seems to me the deal is very very close

It’s early for me on a Saturday this. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

On a side note just had a look at the other forum and some people are now saying it’ll be karma if the mags get taken over and we don’t.

was it always as bad as that on there?
How the hell can it be karma the ****ing idiots! FFS are these people SAFC fans or just imbeciles who aren't happy unless they're unhappy! Not in any way a pop at you WW btw, you're obviously just passing on what's been said on RTG.
 
In all the flurry of posts last night I thought it’s gone to ****. But better this morning.

I reckon stew was on a hiding to nowt doing that last night. He might have been better just saying he couldn’t talk about it as the resident nobs on rtg would put a negative slant in it. Been on there since 2002 but it’s never been worse than it is now. I mainly post on the cricket forum as that does seem a bit better.

anyway what does it matter if it’s this week or next as there’s not a lot they can do on the football side - as long as it gets there that’s the main thing.

keep the faith as it could be very exciting times ahead!!
 
The ships sunk, we’re on a life raft and the lifeboat is 100 meters away with the crew smoking cigars and playing cards. No wonder everyone’s going a little bit mental when the choice appears to be rescue or davy Jones’ locker.

I wish the teasing twastards would just sort it out man. We need to know whether to arrange a party of biblical proportions or get a gansey knitted so they can identify our remains when they get washed up on the cat and dog steps....

The place is riddled with mags. Not one genuine mlf would say it’s karma after the years of ****e thrown at us.
 
Don’t know why Donald has put such a negative spin on the takeover. Yes I wouldn’t expect him to announce it’s all rubber stamped but surely he could give the consett group a bit hope. I’m certainly not a ITK but it’s true the O’Brien lad has joined the board , Another lad I know who I won’t name but he’s position is at director level with our sponsors showed me text msgs from wed 18th and thurs 19th fwd from Charlie saying the deal was done.Only last night he was saying it’s all sorted and they’re all just waiting for everyone to be together so they can announce it.

Gerrin, the monorail is back on. Celebrating that news with a few of me marras.

Our man in Blackhill, last night, sent me a WhatsApp after I'd gone to bed.

I wouldn't normally repeat something that Donald has said in confidence but he seems to have sidestepped that principle last night so balls to it.

My mate was there with an in-law who asked Donald, off Mike after the event, what were the chances of it happening ...

.... 99% was the answer which, ironically, is more than 50% so at least he's consistent <laugh>

I think you should be far more circumspect before posting this type of information.

If you continue in a similar vein then here is a serious danger that you could bring this board into disrepute.

I'm not 'in the know' but I am sufficiently familiar with the workings of SAFC to know that in the current circumstances posts of this nature are far from helpful.

That's a fair point and I'll take some time to reflect on what you've said.

All I'll say, at the moment, is that all parties involved seem to be speaking quite freely about the situation.

The leak of information to the fanzines is typical of that.

However, I'll leave it there for the moment as you make a good point.

I would say that Donald himself was being circumspect when speaking publically. He then spoke in private to one individual saying something different. In other words he was more relaxed and not trying to be careful with his words and thus is nearer the truth than what he said on a microphone to 200 supporters. He is a clever enough man to know what he said in private will be relayed to other fans via word of mouth or social media, and is perhaps what he would have liked to say on the microphone but was unable to. :emoticon-0105-wink:
