Why? Why is every so damn vague?

It's really difficult to know whether to feel any manner of excitement for fear of just being disheartened when you realise posters were probably talking cryptically about impending bowel movements rather than an appointment.
I was just commenting on everyone else's belief, this is the thing, you say something and it's true and proven then everyone hails you as a god. Analysing anything said.

Lots of movement last 48/72 hours. SAFC have moved the obstacles apprently.

Deal not closed but looking like it potentially will happen.

Not imminent but on right tracks. (Moves made after other clubs made contact and pushed our hand)[/QUOTE]

Not sure I'm entirely happy with that.
 
Moreover, I am not taking a swipe at anyone who shares what they have heard. Not giving anyone abuse from RTG who looks at this board.

Would be nice if it was reciprocal instead of constant abuse. I don't frequent that place anymore but lots of my close mates do and feel compelled to tell me.

Massive shame.

I think those mates either need to stand up for you over there or stop telling you about it. Doesn't sound like it's too healthy for you
 
Half a dozen posters have posted nowt of any substance, not even who it is, just intentionally vague. Another is quoting himself. One even gives the whole story and then says he knows nothing in the very next post.

Honestly can't decide if it's just Friday night and people have had a few beers so don't realise they're posting nothing at all or if it's for attention.

Really frustrating.
I didn't have anything to drink, I said what I heard from someone very valuable info wise.

I then posted my hopes. Emotions getting the best of yous.

Us trying to save a tenner
 
Not having a dig at KLD or his knowledge, the ITKs are saying he’s KLDs man and he is also doing interviews. I’m assuming rightly or wrongly, he may not have as much faith as he used to have. Beale cost him a lot of money
In fairness Will Still was who both wanted before Beale but he was too expensive.
After the Beale horror show KLD has obviously taken that responsibility away from KS and if its to be believed there was a foreign bloke doing the interviews this time.
There have been people suggesting KLD is a young kid with no experience in running a football club, however not only has he been brought up around it he will also be surrounded by so many people that have so much experience.
KS has a job to do but I believe KLD has complete control and knows what he's doing with the right people behind him
 
Looks like KLD is getting the man he wanted and his brother. Reads to me like Maric being close to the job flushed Still out into the open.

Going to be an interesting summer

If you believe that Maric was close. Was there anything at all that linked him to us besides Sunderland fans themselves (or sources that originated from us)?

Just what I was told (in relation to Maric).

From reading on here this morning and to the message I woke up to, it appears things have moved on in the last 48 hours and KLD has got the man he wanted in January
 
They do. But some have been solid on Still and provided what they heard. During this time, the same posters OTR have mocked all info. Now the very same posters have now went full circle and agreed with comments from others and I on this board.

They have some brass neck I give you that. Snide jokes about the reason I left RTG, guessing my employment and making up nonsense , all to now agree what I said on here 3/4 weeks ago <laugh>

It's not done still. I said it was complicated and expensive and will take time. But I do feel we are getting there.
With all due respect, your issue is you're bunching me with people who don't like you. For whatever reason. I've talked to these people but I don't stand to mock you.

Your emotion blinds you, people get info, they say what they hear, the goalposts change and they admit their info is now old news. All before anyone else. And to stop beating around the bush, I'm talking about Rubberface.

I'm not into the petty squabbles amongst yous, I'm an idiot but I can't be arsed with the fighting.

Apologies mate, I singled you and another poster out there which I shouldn't have done. There was a few pages of loads of posts which lined up together looked mad though which was frustrating. Then people posting "it's happening" and "imminent" and suddenly it's pages full of cryptic ****e and becomes hard to know which posts follow the stream of discussion.

I appreciate that you're not responsible for the posts of others though, so I'll retract my collective finger pointing <laugh>

I didn't see this before I replied, sorry mate.
 
It's then logistics of it all and change of staff on the front bench mate.
That makes sense mate, I'm sure Still will want more than just his brother. If the club want him that much they will have to move the goal posts slightly if they want him to work within the model.

That's cool mate. No drama with me. That said, the poster in question keeps referencing this board and makes reference to me. Not in a great way either. That's up to him. But I don't recall to have done that to him.

We have all had info. Some good and some duff. Way it is.

I've been saying for a while now that I didn't think that the club would go after Will Still (or anyone else) without being willing to let him bring the staff that he's used to working with. Letting him do that doesn't constitute 'tweaking' the model or being 'flexible', because they wouldn't target someone who wouldn't work within 'the model'.
