    If it's not Fuhrman as you've stated, are you personally happy with who you've been led to believe is the buyer/majority shareholder?

    Did your info come from a club source mate? Cant understands why other club sources would be feeding other lads duff info unless there is anarchy between the owners. I've read on here that they might not be on the best of terms.

    If it's nothing to do with Fuhrman then we have a big problem.

    The following is 5% info, 45% gossip and 50% me trying to make sense of it. No one needs to take any notice and I'm not saying you've been told anything incorrect.

    The main bits of sound info I've had, and believe, is that no one else has done DD and FPP wouldn't want to extend the loan to a new entity.

    If what you say is true it would, in my mind, mean that it would have to be people already involved.

    Donald looks as though he's already relinquished control, is losing money and, if no one 'rescues him, FPP would become owners by default.

    I have to disagree with your source who may well be genuine but frustrated with the current situation just as we all are ...

    ... thankfully there's a match to help take our minds off it all <laugh>

    (BTW I notice you always misspell Fuhrman and Storey, is that deliberate ... not being rude.)

    There was talk of sartori getting a few others involved, if I had to guess I'd say this is roughly what's happened.

    Donald definitely wants out, he can afford to keep us and try for promotion again but he is sick of being the bad guy and dislikes that narrative, it's partly his doing like.
    Methven and Donald and sartori are no longer getting on as well as they first did so Donald will sell his shares but methven and sartori will stay with FPP taking more.

    FPP continue to have issues with the risks so this other group agree to get involved, (sartoris) this is probably where we have heard about the dream team from Magnus.

    FPP are now thinking of not taking a stake but possibly taking a small stake through their loan and sartoris crew are now trying to work it out with Donald for the remaining percentage meaning FPP would only ever be minority Investors.

    That's a guess by the way.

    I was told Methven refers to Donald, behind his back, as Nero ...

    ... that would be typical of his type.

    No problem mate.

    I've just noticed, over the years, that some people do that to make searches difficult.

    A poster called Kildare did it all the time, except when he forgot <laugh>

    I've also noticed that the 'Big shouters', like him, inevitably vanish when their bullshiit catches up with them.

    If it’s not gf then who is it, someone we know or someone we don’t know. Is it the efl or not, how close is it. Try being a bit more informative yourself like others have been on here and don’t have your mate doing it. Like I said vauxie(esq)

    I don't know who the buyer is. I know its 'close' but I don't know if thats days, weeks or months. I try to post accurate and reliable information and not speculate about things. I want this takeover...I want to be out of League 1..
