I know that blokes cap has been mentioned before but I never zoomed in on his image. Always assumed by being too old for that look as some have said in here, he was in his 30's. I am mid 30s and I remember that look being the thing when I was about 15, so thought he just hadn't grown out of it but he looks like he has a decade or two on me like.

Willing to bet the 66 in his Twitter handle is his birth year. I'm sure he's a decent lad and clearly a passionate SAFC fan but he's backing the wrong horse with Storey.

In one interview I am sure he said it was Sunderland or nothing. I think it must be close as he only appears when news is due. Suspect he thinks it’s the final acts now.

Bloody hope so. Mind you, I'm getting concerned about shaun from SAFC Fan TV. I know he's got autism, but seriously, the way he's going on with Storey is showing some serious myopic obsession. It almost feels like it's Storey or no one for him, so how he'll react when Storey fails is anyones guess.

It's a shame that Donald and Methven so publicly flaunted the FPP takeover which makes this all seem so drawn out. Throw in the delays caused by the pandemic, plus the poor start to the season, and it's the perfect storm isn't it.

We currently have a failed owner who knows the income losses are slowly strangling him. Ironically the buyers know the longer he's gasping for breath the better deal they can get. It may be frustrating for us but I'm consoling myself that a better deal means less of Donald in the future ...

... I've even had it suggested that he might sell up entirely. He's made the mistake, as Derby may have done, of doing a deal with sharp operators who now want their pound of flesh.

In that context our owners arrogant comments, about our inability to understand business, have spun on their heels, walked back and kicked them right in the bollocks.

I hope so, and I hope that the kicker was wearing steel toe capped boots
 
I've lost count of how many "its happening this week/next week"......Been over 15/16 months of false dawns, just hope this is no one of them.....Still think it will happen, but not sure where I get my faith from on this.
That's all you have to say and then when it comes to fruition after 12-18 months you can claim to be in the know and have everybody celebrate your success. It's cringeworthy. If anybody had have told me KLD was involved then I would have been impressed. The fact that none of the 'ITK's' knew that speaks volumes. Most of them were still clinging to the belief that it was FPP or carry on with SD and a promoted club.

I'll be honest, I have no issue with guys who pass on info they have learned from connected people. Its done in good faith 99% of the time. The trouble with take overs (not just football) something comes out of left field that even surprises people who work at the business. Its not an exact science, trust me, I've been involved in a few.
