    Rybolovlev was just speculation wasn't it? I thought it was just people putting and 2 and 2 together due to his relationship to Sartori, not any claims of concrete proof of involvement.

    Fuhrman and FPP are currently the biggest investors in the club.

    I was told 2 months back that Fuhrman wanted a resolution, to the current situation, and that his legal people were involved.

    I don't know and couldn't say if I did.

    Rodwell said yesterday that the information is sensitive.

    I'd be more than happy if it is him.

    I don't believe in god, but the last thing I'd want to do is go on a god botherers forum telling them they're wrong - why would I waste my life doing that.

    You just seem to be here for the argument. Why? If you don't believe it, why bother posting.

    I really can't get the mentality of some people.

    I honestly don’t believe the crap coming out of rodwell and Donald, I just think they don’t want to have to answer questions especially after getting knocked out the Fa cup in round 1 at home to the mighty Mansfield and then beaten in the efl cup by the fabulous fleet wood within the space of 4 days, I know let’s dangle a carrot and hope 23000 people by the stream this weekend

    As far as I can recollect, the one constant is that the group of posters who have passed on what they have heard about the current talks, have all said they don't know who the buyers/investors are. There has been some speculation about names and groups, but they have always made it clear that it is only their view and not fact.

    jeeezus!!!...why the hell do some people just want to piss on everyones chips??

    do you get off being a keyboard warrior because face to face you would not dare open your gob?

    IF you are all SO sure 'nothing is happening' then you must have started the rumours in the first place just so one day you can claim a 'victory' for being correct.

    honestly, no one cares who is right and who is wrong (although we will remember those we learn to trust) as all we want, or all we should want, is to see the club improve and move forward.

    i have seen plenty of these 'warriors', they actively seek out a person with a fairly strong view who has others agreeing with him then they simply look for the slightest flaw in the post (as many rely on autocorrect and such crap now there are a few) and then twist anything they can to suit their agenda...once proven wrong they disappear only to return with a new username and a new target...we even have one using 'sarcasm' as an excuse, go and read up on what 'sarcasm' is please, some will say they did it 'just for a laff' others have some strange, deep kind of hatred for some posters but are too scared to stand 'toe to toe' so attempt to beat them with words...i presume we are all adults, can we behave as such please...you have an option whether to believe a post or not, you have the option to reply but please, please, please leave the abuse and vitriol behind, i see similarities starting here that i saw on the other site, a couple of posters sticking a like on each others posts and joining together in any slanging match...end of the day, we know which names will still be posting after this is over.

    .i presume we are all adults, the fatal flaw in your otherwise very succinct post. i believe a lot of these are children, at least that's how they act.

    And that carrot is to say they're cancelling a supporters meeting, still in charge but wanting to sell the club to unknown buyers who may be worse ....

    ... not the most tempting carrot tbh.

    Seriously mate, how many people will suddenly decide to spend £10 on the strength of that?

    I don't think anyone can disagree based on their performances.. Only Bailey Wright deserves his place, not one of the other new recruits have earned theirs yet.

    It’s more like how many of the 23000 will not bother after those last two piles of ****e, a bit of a diversion tactic I reckon

    Fair enough mate.

    I just don't think we're that gullible.

    I did x 2, I support my club not the owners but I also fully respect the decision of others not to.

  18. How do you know there is no foundation in it?
    You have no idea who might be in talks to buy the club,yet you disbelieve any suggestion of who it might be.
    You may say you think it's unlikely and you don't believe they're involved,but you don't present any formal basis for that,and proceed to treat anyone elses' opinion with apparent scorn.

    Those questioning the ITKs, for want of a better phrase, also get some abuse.
    Abuse all round!
    For my part my ITK info concurred with what some on here heard, and the same as that Chris accountant fella tweeted and what RAWA allegedly leaked, i.e., it's all bollox and bluster.
    My mate who is privvy to my information believes that, but does not look at forums.
    I believe Smug, Magnus etc. are getting info from credible sources and am convinced something is happening, which seems to getting borne out.
    However, there are snidey comments on all sides, which is sad as we all want best for Sunderland.

    We also need a bit of patience on the pitch, as was never going to be easy or pretty getting out of this league.
