Bellend maybe, but I’m fairness he seems to be calling SD out for what it is.
What is it ??
We don't know yet.
Plenty speculation as to what the future Ownership might look like.
But there was plenty speculation about the manager. And look what happened
Storey doesn't know either he's just reading message boards and tweeting as if he knows what's going on.

Just got into a pretty long back and forth with WMS lads over SD.
For what its worth - i think they have a personal problem with SD and CM. The reason for that could be anything, given SD and CM have lied a lot about the fanbase. They are also making lot of assumptions about possible role for SD, in particular. I can't see how SD is going to be running the club, in the future.
We now have:
A football strategy
A Sporting Director - likely been appointed by a combo of Jones,Rodwell, KLD, JS maybe SD and CM
A new manager - Johnson likely been appointed by Speakman and Rodwell
New money coming in

As the current owner - what is the problem of Johnson talking to SD. WMS are being judge and jury on a prospective new board without knowing any details, like us all, of % split, investment.
WMS believe they deserve more respect while acting like bairns.
It goes back to SD playing favourites with RR.
Stew and Connor Bromley having a chat made for great podcasts which made Roker Rapport the most popular podcast.
WMS were the first to point out the missing parachute payments (good investigative journalism) but instead of providing dry proof and leaving it Chris Weatherspoon got emotional and some would say obsessive.
Later on, when Stew’s promises turned to ****, he stiffed RR and tried to arrange an “exclusive” podcast with WMS as long as they were nice about him.
WMS went straight to RR and it kicked off those angry statements demanding Stew sold the club.
Roker Report have regained their objectivity, sadly WMS are yet to do so.
 
And if Sartori borrows the money the club will not be responsible for the debt as you state
Yeah mate I see what you mean..
Still think we could do with an update though.. think I’m just a little jittery and want it done.. pleased with what has been done though in the last few days.

Only to curry favour with the fans and to what end? He’s never been anywhere near buying this club, never done DD, never had exclusivity, never been in the ‘data room’ never revealed who is backers were, never showed proof of funds. Absolute fantasist.

You have to wonder what’s driven all of this? For months people had him down as Donald’s mate buying time and now he’s having a go at him. I just can’t fathom the bloke.

I agree mate. At first I thought he was a mag on an elaborate wind up to get at the support. Now, I just don’t get it, but he’s seriously goading SD. He’s obviously got an agenda, but what it is, I’ve got no idea.

I haven't listened to a WMS podcast since one of them called "some Sunderland fans" stupid, then one of their contributors, along with a number of new members, orchestrated what appeared to be a concerted attack on one of our respected posters, in the process calling another poster an idiot for having the temerity to disagree with him.

Maybe at the beginning he thought Donald was a desperate seller and he could nick it for next to nowt.

Probably thought he’d manage to do what Donald couldn’t and make a quick buck so the constant tweets sucking up to the fans in the hope they’d put pressure on Donald to sell to him.

Now he’s throwing his toys out the pram as it looks like it’s a done deal with KLD. We’ll probably never know what was really behind it all.

The first time I witnessed this was a poster called Captain Fishpaste.

He started off politely asking people to read his stuff, then he made out he was a sports journalist, then he started cranking out sensational articles to get attention.

One of them didn’t go down too well, he ended up calling everyone who didn’t agree with him an idiot.

Last seen writing about tennis.

The Kevin Ball article iirc.
 
I've been travelling the country 50 years, following the lads home and away, and don't recognise these tossers.

They're nothing like the hundreds of great lads I know.

I picture them as housebound, or confined, little specimens who love nothing more than trying to bring people down ...

... not being arrogant but they don't have a prayer with the proper supporters.

They may as well give up and f++k off.

The picture I've got of them is the same one I've got of hackers. Sitting in a small dark room, surrounded by screens and unwashed plates. Hair in dire need of a wash. Living for the joy of ruining peoples day.
