The circus is only generated by internet chatter though and forums like this. Donald will know where he stands and FPP will know where they stand. The club is clearly in good enough shape to recruit players and get results in the league. The more we work ourselves up about it, the greater the problems seem.

As I find myself doing a lot at the moment, agree with you here Norton. As fans it's easy to get caught up in the vortex of TAKEOVER OMG, but the simple truth is that these things are slow-burners by nature, and while it would be a nice boost for us all if something positive happened, it really isn't materially going to change the current squad between now and May regardless of who is in charge.

We need to just keep our heads for now. Idle speculation and chat are one thing, but the tension is because we're all becoming conditioned to see that as an end to our journey. It reminds me of how everyone got so het up about the B word, then they interviewed some wifey on the BBC just after 11pm the other day and asked her what would change for her and she said 'well... nothing...' :D

If we got new owners tomorrow, we'd still be the same squad in the same division, fighting the same battle to get out of it. New owners can't change that now.

just my opinion, other teams going strong at the top, we still have the odd mare, and an injury to gooch or maguire could screw us. I just wish pp had turned us around a few games earlier. like i say, i really hope i'm wrong, but 50+ years watching SAFC has prepared me for a fall.

Why has Satori sent a message of good luck to the team? Is he looking forward to another trip to Wembley or is he joining the party with Parky?
 
I'm not actually that bothered about takeovers ATM. The fact is that the playing side of the club has to be rebuilt from the ground up and who is in charge of the club makes bugger all difference, quite frankly. I know they will control the purse strings, but it's more a case of who you buy then how much you spend and that's a football decision, not one for the owner or Board.

agree he’s been absolutely pointless.

where are all these young South American players he promised. He’s done nothing at all.

I reckon it was all a publicity stunt for the Uruguayan people on his run up to the election. As in "look at me, the person of the people", all hosted by the people of Sunderland and SAFC.
