    I not really clued up in this so bare with me.
    Donald holds onto 10%
    Do the new guys have to pay him what he wants for them or can they compulsory purchase them at a later date for a fixed lesser price?
    Just thinking when drumaville bought my safc shares

    Soz but it's someone of this caliber we'll get. No way a top rated manager will come to Sunderland in the 3rd division, and no way Keane or Allardice will come back.

    ...or being fed duff information, is more likely to be the reason.

    This is not like you mate. This has clearly got under your skin.

    Better off going for someone up and coming then. I still think the Cowleys would be worth a shot.

    The only figure I've seen is 23,000 streams for our first 3 games (from https://www.sunderlandecho.com/spor...ased-sunderland-afcs-opening-fixtures-3003271). So that's about 8,000 a game and it seems to include the opposition numbers as well. Obviously we'll be the lions share of it, but I'd say around 6,000 a game is probably likely. And of course that was from early on in the season. Now we're playing dull football and it's dragged on longer than anyone thought I'd imagine the number paying a tenner a game will have dropped a fair bit

    Once the takeover is done and the fans are back, I'd love Donald and Methven to come back to the stadium just one more time to receive what they deserve!!

    That's the trouble, he's like a degenerate gambler who every time he loses he'll keep on going in the hope that he'll get everything back.

    I think Keane would also be capable of the wider club stuff as well as first team duties with his experience, though I’m not convinced he’d join on the salary we’d offer

    He’d have to give up other income sources so of course it would matter

    Nor me. Would he move up here though? Was that not the previous issue. Would love him back here.

    Not going to lie it has. I know there will be genuine people passing on what they hear whether theres substance to it or not but I read some things and in my opinion it is a blatant lie. Whether they are making it up or merely passing it on is up for debate.

    Would make sense to me if the delay @Smug in Boots is referring is related to the delays we saw in september/october each Barnes update would be that it was delayed a month without much more info so would make sense they were still negotiating. It was suggested on here a few weeks ago the deal was done and thats when the 10th nov date came about. Wouldn’t surprise me if that was when they sorted the Donald issue are started working on getting it signed off, hence why the date came out and things like the meeting were planned. It is also around the time the club finally admitted the deal was ongoing on the podcast.
    The people at the club know what it looks like to cancel this meeting so I think they were likely working right up until the last minute to get it done and announced for then.
    Now they have cancelled it and not given a time scale, it let’s them calm down and make sure they go through everything properly.
