Smug, did you hear about that mate?

Posted on here so must be true. Charlie also said in one of his last quotes that both he and Donald would be hiding their head in their hands on something to that effect as they would not come across in a good light

Could FPP tell Donald too f off and ask for their loan money back, and cancel their interest?

That would leave Donald in the ****?

Theoretically they could do whatever is in their loan agreement, but that's unlikely to include an immediate repayment except in extreme circumstances.

I know people love the idea of FPP acting as a sort of mafioso type of enforcer, or somehow 'tricking' Donald into a position, but I think that's a gross mis-characterisation of them and their agreement. These are some of the world's biggest investors, and 'tricking' people or acting in a hostile manner, or even just being perceived as not acting in good faith when investing or loaning money is a very bad look and about as counter-productive an action as they could take for their business.

I'd be willing to bet everything I own (and to some degree, I have in the past) on them acting in good faith and wanting this to be successful. They won't be acting capriciously, particularly on a target comparatively low on their scale of investments.

I posted it before it was mentioned anywhere else or reported in the media.

This post, the following day, shows that nothing was known at the time ...

"When’s the press conference for the weekends game. Wonder if anything is mentioned then, or before then if it’s known to wider press possibly."

This post shows it wasn't known on RTG until the day after I posted ...

"couple of posters on RTG have just posted the same,unless they've read it here and copied."

Apologies if that the case.
I remember your thread about it on here but I thought it was already in press before that.

What about if FPP feel they have been manipulated too some degree and have had enough?
 
Out of interest. Is that mad Bob fella from RTG post here in another name? Just wondering.
 
If anyone's going to buy in they should do it sharpish. We're creeping into promotion contention and that's going to push the price up plenty...
 
RIC said:
Maybe. And if Donald started too push

for a fat bonus and salary could that be the final straw?

Or what if they foolishly discuss it on the new Netflix and let the cat out of the bag... discuss the club's worth and who they could offload it to? Reminds me of a line from Only Fools and Horses, who'd be stupid to pay 40m for this....

And as. Hopefully our run continues Donald gets more bullish...and they say sod this. Then if we dont get promotion hes stuffed again and the fans will kick off big time for losing the deal.

I have an awful feeling I will be on Netflix. I had a word with SD outside Wembley and the cameras and lights were on us. He then recounted my words at the Consett talk in.
