    The next set of accounts will tell us a lot about him. I do expect a great deal of obfuscation though, I don't expect it to be immediately obvious what happened this time last year.

    I'd have to say i have more faith in him than the Venky's or the current Charlton owners.

    Take your SAFC hat off and try to list any clubs that would have prefered SD over the past 2 years than who they've had. I'll start if you like.

    Blackpool
    Bolton
    Charlton
    Bury

    Now that's 4 of 24 that have been in our league within the last 2 seasons or approximately 18%. As i said, sometimes it's better the devil you know.

    Do you think we will get any clearer information on the paid up contracts (Catts, Rodwell, Love, Oviedo etc), the Ndong and Djilobodji sackings and the Alvarez case from these accounts?

    I give Donald a lot of stick but that list gives a picture of what he's had to deal with.

    he knew it when he bought it marra, they weren't exactly surprises

    Edit, actually scrap that, when I went looking for the report when he was praising Richard Hill for those transactions, he actually says:
    "I brought him in and he had to do all of the financial transactions. When I came in and looked at it in real detail I though, 'what have I done here?'
    So it did come as surprise to him, not what you would expect from a good businessman

    I agree to an extent mate. As hard as he imagined it would be, I reckon the reality was multiple times worse.

    Aye, that's another angle. He did do a bit of a Mike Ashley and jump in without knowing all of the facts. Not too clever!

    Spin it as much as you want, but having the chancer ruining the club will ensure league 1 football for the distant future.
    He shouldn’t be wanting more than 15m for the club but every report is saying he wants 35m+.
    Blows just a greedy leech and needs chasing out

    As soon as the poster put it up on RTG I was straight onto it - I thought there was a couple of extra zeros in the amount of shares at one point but nothing new to see unfortunately

    It’s getting desperate for some positive news, I have to be grateful I’m not at work when the mags get taken over.
    Imagine ballsing up the takeover eh Stewy
