Don’t get me wrong, think an agreement was made and the the proposal to the EFL for the checks, but that’s totally different to a done deal. I hear a lot of things from people. I’m not 100% sure SD wants to sell. My concern is this season. We need to get out ASAP due to the number of players out of contract. Nothing is been done to sort this, that I do know.

They dont go to the Efl if it's not done. Imo.

It is. Don't know if it's official, signed off done, but it will happen. The EFL have verbally told people it'll happen. There's no reason why it should take any time at all but if it does its likely an issue with the EFL. There's a reason both SAFC and KLD were happy to make a statement. He's coming in, he's not a fan of the current owners, but beyond that I'm not sure what happens from here. Let's hope he gets things right. I think he'll be really good, but I don't think it'll be a quick turn around

Thanks for the snippet. When you say he's not a fan of the current owners I assume that excludes Sartori? Or do you think he'll eventually leave too?

Our fans need to be patient, (easier said than done) and think longer term imo.
Whether they do or not who knows?? As for SD I genuinely think he had the interests of the club at heart, however since the fans turned i think he's had it in him to be as vindictive as possible. Just my opinion.

Maybe mate. He's definitely been an arsehole recently 100%. Personally, I think he's always been that. I think he knew what we needed to hear and, ironically, he was just better at it than Mr PR Methven. Honestly , @Magnus and @Prehab26 have likely heard about Donald in the KLD discussions. I'd love to hear their thoughts on it. Put it this way, I couldn't have a worse opinion of Donald, and I try to be balanced

Donald's been done a long time. Think I said on this forum when I first joined, he wouldn't be involved on a serious basis. The new ownership wants nothing to do with Donald. Absolutely nothing.

You're talking **** now mate. It is a done deal and I linked the club statement to prove it. Not sure what you get out of being a troll about it.

The fact KLD has already gave an interview in France saying he has bought Sunderland is enough for me and should be for anyone

hope it is mate, really do, I’m just concerned from the second hand snippets I hear about SD and his running and managing of things. Also the players not being offered contracts and they are now available to sign contracts with other clubs doesn’t sit right with me. Fingers crossed it’s announced soon mate.

Do you think we'll have confirmation of the takeover within the next week?

Not talking ****, at all... not a troll. just what I hear... show me where it says it is complete. That’s my concern. Even if it passes EFL checks it’s still in that chancers hands.

Yep, and even less after the last few weeks. Anyone worrying that Donald will be in his ear, don't be, kld won't listen to a word he says

You are talking **** though, no need to be coy. https://www.safc.com/news/club-news/2020/december/club-statement-kyril-louis-dreyfus

Sunderland AFC can announce that an agreement has been reached for Kyril Louis-Dreyfus to acquire Stewart Donald’s controlling interest in the club. If approved by the EFL, the deal will see Louis-Dreyfus become chairman at the Wearside club early in the New Year.
