    Well that's an anticlimax.

    Definitely not. 2 mega rich families who work close together owning 81% of our club is a anticlimax?

    Brilliant news. In KLD we have a brilliant young man at the helm and with Sartori taking more I think that can only be good news too. Now lets get those fixtures up and we are on the way again.

    New person maybe going through efl process for the other 19%?

    I like the cut of KLDs jib so happy for him to increase to a majority shareholder. Him and Juan seem to trust each other so I think it is a positive

    so there's still a chance that my guess of the President of Burundi will buy Stewies 19 %

    Best plausible outcome this. Methven gone. Donald with a silent minority stake looking to make back what he’s “lost” on the club (and more). We just have to begrudge him that. It won’t hinder investment.

    we now have clear majority ownership from KLD who has a clear and sensible plan for the club. No crazy investment. No play thing. The future of the club is very secure and very optimistic

    I know they pretend to be journalists but do they have to put a negative spin on ****ing everything?

    Massive positive. There has been clearly interest at legal stage from other parties but it goes to show, what was spoke on here previously is exactly right.

    The other 2 simply couldn't sell to whoever they want. Strory, crypto chancers etc. All had to have agreement from KLD. He has played it perfectly. Probably got a good deal on the share increase too. Phasing out Methven and isolation time for Donald.

    Those 2 have been outplayed big time. I would rather the LD family increase their ownership who have shown integrity and professionalism than risk other outside influences.

    I really hope that, by the start of the new season we can all stop mentioning Donald.

    He's a nothing.

    Great news, obviously. But after Smug’s hinting about explosive news that could be disruptive or brilliant, we get news that’s just quite nice. In fact, a bit of an anticlimax.
    Still nice. :1980_boogie_down:

    Excellent News.

    You think they’ll Hoover up Donald’s 19% in time?

    That's pathetic isn't it.

    FFS they've not stopped whinging since we went up.
