No one would be stupid enough to invest money and let someone else dictate how its spent without recourse.

They’d be more likely to know him than Donald given his links to Ellis Short during his time here.

When a man of donald's age drops his wife of many years for young blonde thing almost at the stage where big money MAY be dropping in his life I have my doubts about his way of learning.
Relationships break up, I get that but men that do that strike me as insecure egomaniacs.
I hope his missus takes him for every penny ( old and new ones )
Just saying

Do we have to assume that this person on the board is serving a drink-driving ban or just a posh bastard. Or both.
 
I think I heard or read that Parky was saying he only had a squad of 16 to choose from?

If that is true we do need some bodies in..so yes we desperately need some investment...(not CBs I hope)

More than just one article in several publications stating he has ditched his wife and is living with this named woman.
I wont name her but all you have to do is google.
I could understand if it was only on facebook or twitter .
If its untrue no doubt he will be suing these publications.
Bit disingenuous of you to give out such advice seemingly on the basis you dont want to believe it or alternatively we shouldnt be interested.
It's a very selective way to choose what you want to believe.
What next, press censorship or muzzling maybe throw a bit of book burning in while we are at it

Tbf mate Nathan O'Brien is a businessman who's dealt with scrap waste amongst other things ...

.... no difference to dealing with stocks, bullion or frozen orange juice.

Donald is an insurance man and Methven is in PR, I'd say O'Brien is in an industry some would say is intrinsically more honest.

Nathan O’Brien’s family sold to Biffa last year for £38m and he's a well respected NE businessman ...

... just the kind of lifelong Sunderland supporter we need at the club imo.

But I don't believe it's an either/or situation.

Maybe there are injuries.
I find that a bit difficult to believe
