    There will be a link somewhere within the family and the new investment.

    I just don't / can't believe that EITHER of them is with the EFL. definitely not both. The first question the EFL would ask is "well which one is it?"

    There needs to be a preferred bidder and they need to have proved funds and they need to have done due diligence

    considering there is NO WAY this crypto team can have done due diligence, considering nobody from the club has had any contact with them, there is zero chance they're with the EFL.

    the other offer (if it exists) - who knows.

    At a guess mate it's because he's not acting like a serious journalist, he's basically passing on gossip without checking sources or facts.

    The fans group - even from a quick glance at their own business plan - don't have the money to buy us, and the bloke in charge has been bankrupted by a betting company because he owed them so much from gambling.

    If he's a responsible journalist he should be checking these people out before breathlessly putting it out there.

    It makes you wonder who's feeding him the information and what their agenda is?

    What I can't answer is why KLD or Satori won't buy out CM or SD.

    Exactly.

    What Donald & Methven are selling has no value whatsoever.

    It only becomes valuable if it's resold for a profit and the return of the due diligence, solicitors fees, etc ...

    ... how long could that take.

    If Sunderland are relegated the share owners would be in a negative situation, around £3 million imo.

    A very sinister thought, I kind of wish Short had just pulled the plug so this lot didn’t get their hands on us.

    I did say it was a sinister thought

    What benefit would there be for a group to buy 39% of a business that isn't going to make any profit for the forseeable future? That only makes sense if you're already connected to the majority shareholders and are thinking long term, or, if you have the funds to buy a controlling stake in the future if you fancy it, and want to put yourself in prime position to be able to do so.

    I think they're playing the long game.

    The supporters are desperate to see those two go.

    I don't think KLD cares tbh.

    He can run the club his way without spending another penny on shares.

    aye - but why did KLD buy 41%? He doesn't tick any of those boxes either.

    If you can run the club with 41% and 20% of the club, why would you spend money buying more shares when nothing would change?

    OR they'd prefer a 3rd investor to cover the running costs, until a bigger picture emerges.

    That’s the big question, why don’t they want full control. Rather than having to work with someone else
