    After the play-offs said he would resign.. gets a tick from me for that

    As for fitness, if true that is a negative i agree

    I can assure you I’m not him, or any other names banded about. But he’s taking sense... as I’ve said from day one a lot of the info has ‘been leaked’ for a purpose

    I've seen loads of people attempting to disguise themselves on forums but they always betray themselves. As I've said, numerous times, there's always a pattern to people's postings that they don't even realise themselves.

    I couldn't care less tbh but I do notice as I spend time on here.

    I certainly agree with Chris about Methven, I've said a few times on this thread that if he's the sole source of anyone's information I wouldn't trust it. That being said I think a fair few of the positive posters on here have confirmed that he's either not their source, or certainly not the only one they've heard from, which gives me a bit of hope!

    He should never have been on Twitter! Owning a football club the size of ours, he should have deleted it the minute he took over

    But I’d have a guess their ‘sources’ would be one of SD’s cronies. Who will all be singing off the same hyme sheet

    Who Ever the ‘leaked’ info is, it will always find its way back to SD as being the ‘source’

    I was given info from a friend of Methven last year ...

    ... he's now an ex-friend who won't have anything to do with the man.

    It's a bit of fun that's all, I don't care.

    And, how would you know it isn't there unless you believe you're the poster in question?

    I think that Ross was sacked as an appeasement to the more vocal fans who calling for his head after the playoffs. The Luton match seemed to be a turning point for many and I think Donald wanted to keep fans onside.

    Yeah, it is a ‘guess’ as I don’t know any of you from adam, so why would I even try to say I know who your sources are. But as I said, follow the trail back and it will always be SD.. Hell the lad I even speak too might be SD feeding him. I very much doubt it as it goes against everything SD wants, but the times getting close to the end of the window, and the old were couldn’t make it happen’ line along with ‘it wasn’t in the best interests of the club’ will be trotted out to make the fabricated rumour seem legit

    If it’s with the EFL the discussions Would be over, nothing would need or can be altered or changed as the deals soaring for the EFL go rubber stamp it. It’s not with the EFL, there’s no rumours it’s with the EFL apart form SD feeding NB’s

    it’s not happening folks. I think the majority have established this now

    we need to forget about SD leaving in the short term, and focus on surviving this pandemic riddled season and hope we get promoted and then he sells to prouder people to build the club again

    Mine is not CM. Whilst I hope he recovers to full health, I wouldn't trust a word from his mouth.

    I said before, if this falls apart now, would be ructions. Not just on the buying side who are trying to take over the majority of shares (maybe leave Donald with 10% or so) but more so the fans.

    Would be totally game over.

    Of course he wanted to keep the fans on side. Through his greed and amateur approach regarding the take over discussions, he had pissed FPP off and they walked away. He’s fortunate they wanted the club and stuck the crazy loan deal

    He had to appease a high amount of fans as he’s ****ed it up for us all

    Would also like to add that I do have respect for Chris and we have had lots of Comms in the past. Be is a sound lad and to be fair, he was right about the SD show from day one.

    Absolutely. I just hope he's wrong.

    I hoped he was wrong then as well and he wasn't.
