S.A.F.C. - the future

Roppa said:

So in a nutshell, what’s not being handled well, in your opinion, is the fact that the club hasn’t announced the takeover, because people on here and other places have said it’s done in all but name. I reckon it’s not done yet for reasons I don’t know, and tbh I’ve got no right to know, I’m just a lad who’s supported them for 50 years, but other than my season ticket, or in the old days my mams cash in the fulwell end turnstiles, I’ve no skin in the game. I’d love to know what’s going on, but as with any takeover of any business, I’ll probably only see the end result, when it’s finished. It doesn’t mean the club aren’t handling it well, or appropriately, it just means I’ve no right to know, and given somebody’s putting tens of millions into my club I’ll just have to be patient, cos it’s their business and not mine. That’s my take on it anyway.

without doubt a dancing man. I am now very content, the annoucement can come whenever it likes. All going on behind the scenes. Its just a little thing that I have been involved with but KLD spotted it on Saturday and its trying to be rectified within a week. superb professionalism.

You've a right to know marra,because you're a long-standing,loyal fan,who has given years and years of dedicated support.
The first team I saw there was Wakeham,Irwin,Ashurst,Anderson,Hurley McNab,Hooper Herd,Clough,Fogarty and Overfield.
I've been going ever since.
I accept that someone is putting millions into it,I repeat,,I'm not doubting that,or being sceptical in any way about it.....read my posts,I've been supportive of this throughout.But,....
I have a right to know!
And I'm pissed off waiting!

First little bit for a while, but don’t be surprised to see more then the twins involved, his Mam might not have a % but she’ll be involved

Canny. So take it this sort of restructuring is what's causing any sort of hold up?

Personally don’t believe the is a hold up mate, do you really believe KLD has just decided to do this now instead of right at the start of the EFL checks ?

I think you are right it was selling the stadium, but I didn't realise it was to themselves. I guess there are more question marks if ti is above value and to yourself.

Was just curious mate, had only noticed his brothers etc coming on board mentioned in the last few days.

I just think it is taking time because of the thoroughness that this new set up is going through and wanting to be able to say something special when they do announce it.
Let's be honest in our lifetime of watching the lads we have had so many false dawns with our club and it is possibly the best takeover ever.
Maybe they have persuaded King Charlie to put his boots on again. Now that's worth waiting for

Damn right. If I was a Mam with 2 billionaire kids, I’d never let them out of my sight. Especially if one says he wants to bosh a wad on some ****-show club in the NE of England!
