the mods have lost control over there.
I’ll say no more because I got a warning from one, when I complained turned out it was based from something I said on here
FFS, can't have an opinion away from there? What right do they have to give you a warning based upon something that was said here? I'd argue that it's a case of mistaken identity and that there's a 2nd wearside wanderer out there :emoticon-0105-wink:
 
There’s a link there isn’t there, maybe even he was keen to push the deal through and as such confidently made that claim, then when they’ve gone another way he’s stepped out.

The logic is there, and the reality that he’d want someone else to run the club, the O’Briens have links to the US which would kind of make another link, they have large holdings on the East Coast, but the O’Briens probably don’t have the net worth to carry it forward alone, whereas Fuhrman does, both individually and though his own investment company he set up.

Like I say, it’s just really interesting to me that of all the clubs the others went into it was Southampton. I know the ownership has changed down there but the ties to O’Brien, may well be coincidence given the industry, but there’s a lot of links there however small and speculative.
It's the stripes marra :1980_boogie_down:
 
the majority of us know you were posting what you heard in good faith and as a lifelong good fan unlike some idiots that just post ****e in the hope of being liked by strangers over the net. I for one hope you keep posting what you hear as there’s not been too much to get excited about recently.

Spot on marra. Genuine posters like Smug need to know there are those of us who appreciate what they've been able to put up.
It isn't hard to decipher the genuine from the deceitful.
Most of us have a love for this club that we have difficulty explaining to those who don't feel it........doesn't mean it isn't real!
Some try to exploit it for their own amusement.......it comes with the territory.
 
<laugh>

Yeah ISOE said they were chatting about it quite happily at the match. My Italian friend, who was in the US, also said it was a hot, but open, topic in the legal firm he and FPP use.

I may have been a bit carried away but when they subsequently appeared at the Wimbledon match I thought it was game over ...

... in my position which Sunderland supporter wouldn't, it all seemed to fit.

I've been ridiculed by loads of people saying FPP have gone, dissolved the company, been paid back, etc. But, as things stand they haven't gone, or dissolved the company and they're currently the biggest investors in the club.

So all of those people were wrong, fact.


Have you got a lifetime ban over there ?

Aye they do look good mate but it's toughened glass so there is no cutting, delivered ready cut also looks nice in between timber panels as well keeps the cost down.

My decking has wood all round...glass means less varnishing/painting I guess

Yes mate.

I was banned for months and only went back to set the record straight, which I did.

I pulled no punches and called people out.

Needless to say Pancho, who'd followed me here as 'Hotlips', threatening me with legal action from Donald, took the opportunity to ban me for life.

I never made vague hints, posted initials, changed my position, etc as many over there do ...

... I put my head firmly on the block and spelled out, word for word, what I'd been told.
 
Been over there since about 2002( i was bored at work one afternoon and signed up) its gradually turning worse and worse on there. Some of the behaviour by some of the mods( i know 2 from cricket and they are pretty sound) is disgraceful and have spoilt what used to be a good forum.

Now its just full of dickheads and wind up merchants. That Pancho is a cock end as well.

Aye he thinks he’s some kind of legal expert does poncho, I got into a heated debate via pm with him saying stuff could be libelous and shot him down in flames, it’s too clicky over there

Beat him in a forum argument and he'll claim it's 'disrupting the forum'.

When you point out it's bang on topic he suggests taking it to pm.

When you do that, and destroy his argument, he finds a reason to ban you.

Absolutely useless bloke tbh.

Wasnt only person to say it and it was in the politics forum.
