    I watched this last night and I think he's pretty convincing, im sure the guy who he said owned restaurants in London who was a Sunderland supporter had been identified, I possibly read that at the other house

    These are likely the same "Sunderland sources" that have been leaking bollocks to local sports reporters. Not sure I would believe anything coming out of the club under the stewardship of this lot. Most of it is to keep the fans at bay during times they could be getting angrier and more frustrated when they see a lack of action on the many fronts we currently see it. The carrot of potential new ownership is a convenient way to pull the wool over our eyes while he spends nothing and does even less.

    It was on here, anybody can get their mate to film them on an iPhone and spout a load of tosh, i wasn’t convinced at all, this is what he does he’s a conman and not a very good one, he manages to get a foot in the door then gets found out, stitched haas right up, claims to be a boxing promoter, super bike owner, f1 sponsor, data systems it’s all crap

    This. It was blatantly scripted from start to finish. If you bring your phone and agree to ask pre-written questions (I mean the bit about rich energy taking the world by storm man!) and give me a day to prepare I reckon I could sound like a clued up, knowledgeable, potentiality exciting future owner of Colchester United. I'd drop in bits about ex managers, I'd say they need good people in key positions, I'd talk about any recent controversies (easy to find on message boards), I'd talk up my "backers" . In reality I've got **** all money, know **** all people with money, and know **** all about Colchester. It's very easy to sound good when it's all set up for you .

    Things have moved forward mate.

    People either can't say because they're in confidence ...

    ... or don't want to have to answer endless follow up questions.

    I post less than I could but I was attacked relentlessly, last year, and don't want to repeat the experience.

    If you really want a definitive update you need to go to the club website ...

    ... anything else can be classed as gossip tbh.

    I have absolutely loads of gossip mate.

    I also have some genuine first hand information.

    After the relentless barrage of shyte I had flung at me, last time, I've become reluctant to post either.

    I've posted the truth to a few lads I trust who'll confirm what I've told them after it happens ...

    ... then I can go back to being just another supporter as I used to be.

    Has everything been already posted over the past few months and now we just have to wait and see if it pans out?

    Not really mate.

    Things have happened that are significant and the club will be quite different quite soon.

    The info is mainly from some good Sunderland lads, on RTG, who won't post because of the weirdos.

    I can't repeat anything because they've told me in confidence.

    I take it this coincides with @Wheatsheaf post for an announcement early November which you replied you think it may be earlier?
