    He'll be in the office shouting at the secretaries asking how this could've happened

    You’d think he was a penniless chancer or something….

    Methven. The ultimate Tory. Trying to deal deals on the cheap, make people redundant to make a quick buck. Shameful.

    I mentioned their names and not in a good way in the ticket office once, the reaction from the woman behind the counter "don't mention thoes bastards to me".

    Problem is for him now, the underhanded way they got Sunderland will be common knowledge within the footballing world, no one would want to go near them.

    That's why Tweedldee is still hanging around here like the smell of old spilled milk. No other club will touch the charlatan.

    .I don't know if this Sandgaard is wealthy or not. But if he is, maybe he can trawl the chancer through the courts for a year or two and ruin him.

    Sandgaard was linked with buying us before buying Charlton, prior to KLDs take over. He's supposed to be worth around £450 million.

    In all honesty that's nowt these days.

    If his assets are £450 million that could mean he has no cash.

    And, in reality, that kind of money is soon swallowed up ...

    ... just ask Ellis Short.

    Totally agree. Though hopefully he's got a lot more than Methven and won't blow it all on salmon coloured trousers and fake tan...

    Well, I genuinely waited for them to "impress" me. And hindsight is 20 20 but at the time I just didn't believe them.

    Not to mention finding ways to move money they were managing into the pockets of themselves/their friends.
