    My only news is that things are continuing to shift and that Donald is really struggling financially to the point whereby he'll crack ...

    Prehab appears to be receiving similar, but not identical, info.

    "I have heard things which have been positive. I know talks have been happening. Then it was ongoing."

    The closer we get to the season, and the longer none of the senior roles are filled give me hope for a positive outcome. If those positions start being filled, then obviously that would change.

    Unless of course the calibre of the appointment was high, in which case it would be someone else doing the recruiting.

    My hunch is, the longer it goes on the less likely Donald will win his blink off so let’s just chill and let his armpits get damp. No fan income with Covid then minimal fan income as we protest his leadership is the stark choice he has and I don’t think he has enough money to hold on and risk lockdown mark 2 in winter. Sounds like he’s trying to create an auction but you still don’t bid high unless someone else bids high and I doubt any of them will, plus I don’t even know if he has full backing from his fellow board members. A high profile administrated business doesn’t help credit or credibility and he’s an accountant. He won’t run us down. There is real interest and I’m confident they’ll compromise.

    Just a quick message to say that talks are definitely continuing, that's for sure.

    Sadly that's the only thing that is definite.

    SAFC is a golden egg and everyone knows that ...

    ... I just hope we're soon out of the frying pan before we all end up scrambled.

    As in all auctions the club will find it's TRUE value...the price someone us willing to pay. Not what someone wants!

    Fwiw, I reckon any transfer of ownership will happen when we're least expecting it.
