    What have you heard from other sources?


    Can’t be just bob saying it’s hit a stalemate,as that info is nearly a week old and I’d expect it to have worked its way to others by now.

    The EFL would be straight on his back asking him why?

    So what if he knows the owners. I'm sure the owners know plenty of folk but that doesn't mean they all know what the owners intentions are. How big of a ****wit would you need to be to think that's the case.

    That last sentence is ****wittery at it's finest, own the club ffs, give your head a shake.

    Nothing really, there's pretty much the prehab side of things (talks ongoing, positive, no reason to think it won't be completed) which I think he was still saying recently. Then there's what I heard at the end of August (no takeover close, FPP still the most likely buyers but the more positive stuff was being put out by someone at the club for their own purposes).

    What's pathetic about saying you don't know if something will happen? Surely that's better than past where he's been too vague.

    Not sure how involved Rodwell will be (just because the sale would be of Madrox, who he isn't a director of). It would be interesting to know if Donald had the same take on things as Methven, I think they'd be a bit different

    He doesn't pay any wages to employees of Sunderland Associated Football Club. The club does as it's the club that employs them, not Don.

    What I'm saying is the only way he would know more would be if he was the one making the decision himself.

    Ok so do you think without crowds, the club has the money to pay the wages?

    Reading between the lines I don't think they're in sync as they were when they got the club.

    Yeah, I've heard very similar to that, although not in sync would probably be a polite way of putting it!

    They seem to be doing so up to now, along with every other club in the country. So yes, they do have the money to pay the wages. Keep digging.

    It doesn’t make sense man. He knows them personally but is quite happy to spout their ****e on the message board? If he has any links to them he is being used but is too much in love to realise it

    Well I was as sceptical as you until I was shown unequivocally otherwise, still I don't expect you'll believe me and that's fine we're all entitled to make our judgements as we see it.

    Possibly, I wouldn't know and neither would he really until the truth comes out.
