Where's the personal stuff coming from here? Seems like you hate being called out on the ambiguous predictions and whenever I do, you get personal.

How on earth does it make sense that FPP said that they would only do the deal to takeover if Methven and/or other staff weren't involved (your 'staffing issue') and then we ended up not doing a takeover deal and instead received 'investment' (a loan) because they weren't budging, only to actually bin Methven off 3 weeks later? :D

That scenario is ridiculous. The idea that you know what is going on is undermined somewhat by the fact that nobody, least of all the protagonists themselves, seems to have a clue what is going on.

Not at all, you're just boring and I don't like bores.

Try commenting on the situation, not me for a while, there's a good lad.

I did, I asked how the situation makes sense, you are just ignoring that and hoping nobody notices that you've tried to pass this off as validation of your ITK credentials, when actually it proves absolutely sod all, and contradicts it in some ways.

So again, for the third time, if the staffing issue was the key, why was it not resolved at the time to enable the takeover to go through instead of the loan?

Also just a handy hint on this one, if you don't want people commenting on you, why not try and not make any event at the club all about you and your ITK status.

There's a good lad.

What makes me laugh is that everyone seems to think that they know what Charlie's political affiliations are based on the colour of his trousers yet no one seems to have picked up on the fact that former Presidential candidate Juan Sartori was running for what is effectively the Uruguayan equivalent of the Conservative party.

Yeh agree with that, I don't care what their politics are as long as they do right for the club. That Werlsend member is a bit of a goon I think.

In all honesty I stopped reading past your first couple of paragraphs a long time ago.

You never get the point and it's just tedious.

In my opinion Stewie and his crew got in over their heads. It was bound to come out somewhere a long the line and the fact we didn't get promotion last year just speed ed everything up. Stewie has had a few months off now Charlie boy walks. If you can't handle the heat you shouldn't be in the kitchen. All this about pressure etc it just comes with the territory certainly when your dealing in multi million pound businesses. Don't really know whats gone on behind the scenes but in my opinion the 'yanks' have these guys by the balls hence the lack of info about that whole transaction. I live here in the USA and have my own business here where I take loans. If it's the same for Stewie which wouldn't think would be any different then they have him by the nads. The yanks will determine in their own time when they will make a move and I feel this will be sooner rather than later in an attempt to stop the club going into meltdown. It will be an interesting few weeks that's for sure. There will be a lot of bull sh*t coming out. People leaving for family reasons is always a good one....these types would sell their own mother if they had a good offer. Santorini coming back....yeah right when he's pursuing his political career 6,000 miles away...another good one. Not long in my opinion before the club is run by the yanks...hope they do a better job than the last one although I do understand they have a background with some sports teams.

What is your point? You have just sat there seeking attention for being ITK and refusing to talk about any of it. There is no point. You're just ignoring everything and hoping nobody picks up on the fact what you said would happen completely contradicts what is happening now.

Could feasibly be the case that they wanted Methven gone, Donald dug his heels in so he stayed but developments since have made his position untenable and/or made Donald see their point of view.

Which is why I asked smug if this is the trigger for a takeover, if that was the thing holding it up.

Tories shouldn't be involved in a working class club like Sunderland, I knew from the start that it would end up with salmon trousers ending up with egg on his face.

Also LOL at smug telling everyone I told you so... He doesn't have a clue man

Can I just ask, are Tories allowed to support our working class club ?
 
Bit ironic if you ask me, that CM claims he was responsible for attracting the interest of the Yanks in the first place and now some people are saying they wanted him out......
C’est la vie.

How many times do I have to say I couldn't care less, I'm really not interested in being ITK.

I post what I can and I sometimes have to omit certain FACTS such as was the case here. I was told the whole story but could only post a few hints.

Posting info attracts a lot more flak than 'attention' as your endless sniping demonstrates.

As I've said, don't judge everyone by your own agenda, I don't care what anyone thinks.

This is just a word soup. I'm asking a simple question, if you were told the whole story, when are FPP taking over now that the obstacle is removed?

seems to me that our owners are accepting defeat and moving on - I hope the investors know what they are doing and have a plan or it will be a long ol winter.
