    Sacked while Donald, Sartori and Methven owned the club. Those 3 will make up 75% ( not shares ) of the people who will own the club going forward.

    We can call it a takeover but it’s a bit underwhelming when you look at who’s staying involved. This club needs a clean sweep, out with the old and in with the new. Let’s hope SD & CM take a proper back seat in this and Juan comes in with KLD full of ideas and enthusiasm.

    Cheers Magnus.

    Is there any further word on additional investors? When the KLD news was leaked there were rumours of others involved wasn’t there?

    The amount of new members making out they’re ITK, I feel sorry for them signing up just to try to look important

    They're obviously people who spend their lives jumping from Twitter to forums to social media like a bluebottle in a conservatory.

    Worthless people who no one notices when they fall to the floor and are hoovered up.

    I don’t doubt age being just a number. I am finding it hard to be positive about the rumoured changes though, will have to wait and see what materialises.

    Influential? How? Who did he sign? Which contracts did he negotiate? What input to the Academy did he have? Genuinely interested.

    I see slot saying sartori will sway with Donald,
    Been a few rumbles the had a falling out and that’s why sartori has kept his distance

    If I’m honest I’m hoping for the naming of sd before a manager, at least we know what direction we will be taking. Over the last couple of days and the two names that have been mentioned both are completely different, I cannot understand going from poyet to cowley (if it’s true about the brothers)

    this makes sense - I assume they are specifically buying Sartori’s existing shareholding into Madrox and 60% of Donald’s.

    Rodwell gets a lot of stick but he was just doing what Donald told him to do on a shoe string budget, he’ll have sartori/kld and a new SPD to answer too now

    I am aware that Poyet has said he doesn’t fancy it, but has Schwartz dropped out as well or said anything about it?

    A lot of people seem to have alluded to Donald falling out with both Methven and Sartori but the latter two still being close.

    from what I can tell, the majority of people on either side of the pessimism fence all seem to agree that Donald is gone and will have no involvement. The pessimists just seem to think that it’s Methven who will be calling the shots on behalf of Sartori and KLD who will both be absent sugar daddies. Which I think is nonsense, as they will have the £££ now to bring in proper people to make decisions - like the sporting director.

    As if Sartori is going to go through all this just for things to remain as they are ...

    ... honestly mate, it makes me wonder how people think.
