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.

You're completely missing the point, because of your sad little agenda.

I'm in regular contact with everyone who's posted info and I can tell you honestly that none of them want any attention. In fact there's another lad, who has a close mutual friend of Donald, who doesn't post because of people like you. He gets first hand info but doesn't want to be grilled and insulted by the likes of you.

All we all want is for the club to be given a new future and the supporters rewarded for their dedication. There is no 'success' for lads posting what they've been told, it's just an anonymous chat forum man. You've come on here specifically to do nothing but have a pop at genuine Sunderland supporters.

There's something cringeworthy all right ...

... I assume you have a mirror in your house.

As a guy who tries to look at things a bit deeper it's hard not to notice that KLD step dad is vice chairman at Blackrock one of the largest investment and hedge fund management firms on the planet. I would bet pounds to pennies that he has a fair bit of contact with MSD investments. Maybe just maybe the Sunderland purchase of last year came up in conversation and the bais of this whole saga started when he said something along the lines of my family has been involved in soccer for a number of years now and Kyril would love to own a club with potential. I think he knows Juan quite well only a guess but they all seem to know how to put the screws on SD and maybe we might have larger financial backing than just KLD an JS. Bit of a dream I know but hey we live to dream.

If this comes to fuition it certainly is the case, with KLD wealth, his family, his stepdad, JS and his wealth and that of his wife and her family, not to mention FPP still could play a part, we would have the necessary resources. However, we’ve had a wealthy owner and look how that turned out. It’s more about the vision, long term plan that accompanies any takeover. Started well imo with Speakman and Johnson, the difference being the potential new owners do seem to have an interest in,and a love of,football.
Just as important as the money I think, and it’s that I find just as exciting.

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.

I've never said they're making it up. Evidently the information being passed on hasn't been correct. I've also been involved in business, I understand that unexpected happenings are always around the corner. I've always known who was involved in the deals, though.

It shouldn't do, as far as I'm aware they're not expecting this to be more dangerous than the original virus, in fact it's probably weaker but easier to transmit, this allows it to reproduce and infect more people.

The vaccine will still work but in the long term this

Whitty was saying it's transmission is up to 70 % faster in some areas. By my reckoning that will equate to more infections, more hospitalization and more death,what with the Christmas spike, looking like a busy January for NHS.

when a virus mutates it weakens so even tho it will spread faster it won’t be as severe as the original

We have waited this long an extra few days make not a blind bit of difference in my humble opinion.

As long as when it's done a clear forward thinking plan is set out and we build on solid foundations.

As we have all said before if any new owner got it half right with us they would be backed to the hilt.

Just give us some hope for the future and see the place bouncing
