    I’m not convinced about that unless the family want him out. Sartori loves his football His wife’s family are loaded and she stands to inherit a fortune think he brings a good dynamic to the ownership But either way I feel we are in good hands

    Wouldn't be a bad little feeder club for SAFC imo.

    I think @Prehab26 means Kyril's twin Maurice buying Stewies shares not increasing his own holding

    And people thought KLD didn't know what he was doing, Donald kept some shares hoping to make a healthy profit, but it could well be he can't keep up with his side of the costs and he's had to hand some over to cover his cost, so is basically giving them away for nowt.
    But it's still a good job he's still on board considering he's running the whole when KLD is out the country ffs, I hate to see people getting grief on here for the opinions however Bob really brings it on himself with the pure bollocks he spouts

    To me,this is good news,it shows the commitment to our club from KLD and JS. If,as has been speculated,JS is merely a holding player pending an eventual sale to another member of KLD family, before he moves more into Monaco,so be it. The timing is interesting. It could be that SD doesn't have the ability to commit to the upcoming investment required to get us into an automatic promotion challenge next season,and so is accepting cashing out,leaving himself a smaller stake to reap a benefit should PL status be forthcoming. All makes sense to me and I like it.

    Methven and Donald found themselves confronted by top professional advisers brought in by KLD, with the approval of the LD family. Methven has been squished and it's only a matter of time before Donald is squashed.

    The pair of them were as arrogant as they were out of their depth ...

    ... a dangerous combination and doomed to fail.

    This is significant imo. Some of our player aquisitions......eg,the loan deal for Michut,with the option to buy......are the work of people who know what they're doing,for example, by negotiating longer term contracts for Abdou, Jewi, Trai Hume, Clarke which show an intention to invest wisely on the recommendations of a top class recruitment team,who are not just data driven.
    Our future is bright!

    But as everyone on here knows how it all unfolded, I need not have even done that.

    Strange on the takeover thread you posted

    "This increase in the shares started on Tuesday, and completed this morning, the reason SD was helping KLD out in the admin dept, as at the time he and JS were looking for investment elsewhere.
    it changed when KLD offered him a fortune for his shares.
    i PM'd few on here about it."

    Do you not remember how many it was,or did you post to some you didn't trust as well

    Bob you only told one person, not a few, about the club statement on the day the club statement was released, it had been finalised the day before. (He can contradict me if that's not correct.)

    It's the reasons for the share purchase, the timings, etc, that don't make a bit of sense. You made claims about Donald becoming more involved in big projects, etc, days before he's further eased out of the club altogether.

    Claiming that KLD paid a fortune for shares from Donald as a reaction to Sartori breaking promises is ridiculous ...

    ... but then allowing Sartori to buy more, and increase his stake in the club, is crazy

    You've done your best to present Donald in a good light and climb he's heavily involved, helping KLD, looking for investment, etc. Sadly the only person you seem to have convinced is yourself.

    I've no doubt you're still in touch with Donald but either you're guessing at the reasons he's being pushed out or he's lying to you.

    That's what I believe.
