    That's wonderful, a fair few predicted said that would happen this summer.

    It's one small step for the man ....

    ... but a giant leap in the minds of the supporters.

    The club made no progress while he was there, in fact it went backwards.

    Im annoyed because when I picked 7 and 2 last night I originally had 6 and 3 but changed it as I wanted it closer to a 2/3s split overall :D

    Ha. Nearly spot on mate. I am surprised it's happened so quickly.

    All quite right, well put ...

    ... also a final kick in the nads for those weirdos who seemed desperate to prove this was never a takeover.

    Some clung on to that assertion like a life belt in a whirlpool.

    It’s noticeable that he stayed on to try to cash in on premier league as we expected. Was clearly a long game plan from KLD to ground him down until he couldn’t afford to keep his stake and it’s obviously worked.

    Very intrigued to see what happens next. It possibly means nothing but it does also potentially open up more spending

    Very pleased to hear this.

    The bloke added nothing, was out of his depth, told lies, went missing in the club's darkest time, sold anything he could sell and would have kept selling assets until we hit administration.

    Great news!

    As @Prehab26 said earlier mate, probably needs the cash for Eastleigh, and the point you made too, all links in

    He was like a little fella playing around on a dinghy who found the keys to a powerboat ...

    ... he was soon totally out of his depth, sold all the fittings and nearly took the boat down with him.

    Now he can go back to the little pond where he put his captain's hat back on and pipe Methven on board <laugh>

    But it's not a takeover. Donald is still there pulling the strings and influencing to them.... Excuse me, theres some men in white coats asking me to come with them to Cherry Knowles...

    And why not.

    Donald left a bitter taste in the mouths of the supporters ...

    ... which makes the current state of the club all the sweeter.

    Nail on the head mate....clung on as long as he could to see if we could get to the PL....once we lost to Luton he will have known the game was up & he could no longer match the required running investment......& We move on.....massive progress has been made in little over a year.....now were shot of the last hanger on ithink were going to see rapid progress....might not necessarily mean immediate on the field....but massive progress in the background as we look more & more like a very well oiled professional outfit......last summer was the first ina long long time i wasnt dying for no football for a couple of months.....im absolutely desperate for the fixture release, player additions & to get back into a ground watching the lads again......WHAT a fooking change these guys yave made

    Brilliant news this.....credit to @Bob the Mackem, spot on info.

    Picking the Mrs up from dialysis at 11.15, then a hard day's graft landscaping the garden. Tomorrow, for the first time in ages, I don't need to be up early.
    So tonight.....assorted Sunderland videos on youtube, bit of music, a few cans of Guinnes and a few single malts.

    Today is a good day, tomorrow....not so sure.

    He gives as good as he gets ...

    ... and sometimes gets his retaliation in first <laugh>

    It was only a few weeks back that he was insisting Donald was virtually running the club for KLD and increasing his involvement.

    I like Bob but his endless defence of Donald and Methven did him no favours in my estimation.
