With regards to The Elvis link, could it not be a white away shirt?

Speakman gone to FC Copenhagen.
Good on him, sounds an adventure that.

Hope we play in white, high collared, onesies.
Wonderful, wonderful that he’s gone there.

Really interesting move for former Sunderland sporting director Kristjaan Speakman.
I’m told by members of the press pack in Denmark that the deal is now done, with an announcement expected later today.

Good luck to him

Just over the knee shorts, collars would be good
Positive thing.
The fact they continue to plough ahead with progressing the club is all that matters.
I’d hate us to land with Chelsea style owners, but it makes absolute sense that we’d be attractive to buyers even if KLD wasn’t touting for a sale.
Wanna buy a timeshare on the moon becs? going cheap ,the views are great but the the atmosphere is sh1t and the noisy clanger neighbours just ignore the ASBOS.
It must be tempting for kld ..to go from a valuation of 30 million to over 300 million is evidence of some business acumen!
Aye not a bad little return.
Depends if he’s here to build and profit or to build a legacy.
Hoping it’s the latter.
Sounds like KLD and Sartori are going nowhere
SUNDERLAND’S interim CEO has confirmed that the club’s ownership group have been approached by external parties looking to purchase or invest in the Black Cats.
But Tom Burwell also insists Kyril Louis-Dreyfus and Juan Sartori’s commitment to Sunderland remains as strong as ever, with this summer’s spending on the infrastructure at the Stadium of Light and training ground confirming their willingness to make long-term investment decisions

It does but KLD is valued at over £2.5b. I think he is here for the ride not the money even thought it would be tempting
This is only my opinion but what would you want to be remembered for? For me, I would want to be remembered as the owner who at least tried to take Sunderland to the top of the footballing tree. KLD and Sartori got us into the premier league and in their first season got us into Europe. What else can the club achieve? And wouldn't you want to be a part of that as an owner?
If we do keep this trajectory going and knock on the door of real success, I hope we don't become entitled and expecting. Xhaka's words from earlier in the season should become our motto and ethos:
Be humble, remember where we came from
Be humble, remember where we came from
The one thing I took from Xhaka's speech, is that when he said "This is the beginning" you believe him!
100%
He was sold a colourful dream he believes in.
It’s another reason I don’t believe KLD is looking to bail. He wanted Granit as a centrepiece to his next phase.

Sunderland Chief tells @SkySportsNews they are in a strong position to buy and sell players on their terms this summer:
CEO Tom Burwell:
️ “One of the blessings is we are built on really solid foundations. We sit on fundamentally strong, 49,000 seater stadium, that isn’t your traditional newly promoted football club.
️ “That means we go into this summer where Flo (Ghisolfi) is allowed to make the best decisions for the football club without undue pressure to make decisions in certain ways.
️ “He can operate in the way he needs to. We are confident we can work within the new regulations.
️ “Selling players? We are not dictated by what the accounts say. We are in a fortunate position where Flo can make the best decisions without the pressure to turn around and say ‘you must do this or must do that’ which is a great place to be in going into a season with so much in front of it.”
