    Let´s look at this in another perspective!!! Ashley, Anderson, the Stoke chairman, British Leyland, Royal Mail, the train companies, education, social services, policing, the UK Conservative party. Can you spot a common thread there?

    I believe that what you're being told is genuine and so are your reasons for relaying it, I've just been bitten more than once by Sunderland and I prefer not to celebrate anything until it's official.

    There's no real reason to doubt it though and I believe that we're going to be a happy bunch on here very soon.

    There’s every reason to believe it seeing as the fellas have been at the last 2 games and were quite openly visible on Saturday after the story had broken.

    It’s clearly a goer if the financials are correct.

    I think so too but Mark Campbell was at a game or two and that fell through so we'll have to wait and see. Might well turn out that we dodged a bullet with him backing out, these boys seem to be operating at a much higher level.

    This has been described to me as a ten year legacy project.

    I'm not sure if these fellas have football loving sons but I'd love to see a Dynasty at Sunderland ;)

    You're quite right smug in suggesting that we wait until it's announced, but I have got a semi on in anticipation

    Well this is it for me, I've just been told that Glen Fuhrman, is the new Sunderland owner.

    The fella who told me is a personal friend of Fuhrman and I'll be seeing him on Sunday for the full story.

    That's all I know at the moment.
