    Donald had £30m parachute payments, £9m from Fuhrman and has sold players we shouldn't have.

    He no longer has that money, the income is minimal and things are about to get worse.

    Once reality overcomes his ego he'll sell.

    Otherwise, as things in football become even more unpredictable, he could end up unable to find a buyer at any price.

    But I thought the takeover was imminent and with the EFL. You sound like me now?

    He will sell
    He has to sell
    But not for the foreseeable

    This might make a takeover by all three of FPP less likely...

    But but they weren't interested in buying a football club, so it must mean SD is going to Denmark also, since they only wanted to invest in him. I'm detesting this bloke more and more every ****ing day

    Fuhrman has no involvement, its just one of FPP.

    This suggests the info Magnus, and others had, about Fuhrman being the one pushing for Sunderland was perhaps correct.

    It also shows some people are still interested in buying football clubs.

    I didn't just say it wasn't imminent or with the EFL and I've never said it was imminent ...

    ... you keep attributing that statement to anyone you disagree with.

    This, in fact, was my post on the subject,

    "As with any contract, anything from a house purchase to a marriage, nothing is imminent until the pen touches the paper."


    There's always the possibility Donald will pull the same stunt as last time.

    So what have we been arguing about for the last 6 weeks

    Why would SD pull them same ‘stunt’ if he’s desperate to sell and talks were at an advance stage... seems like you are back tracking a bit and ‘covering’ your tracks

    So now you are on the same track as myself (partial as there was never any strong talks, of any talks regarding a sale going on) and that NB’s is incorrect with his info, the same as Magnus? And nothings happening???

    He has plenty of cash to buy several clubs, but my guess is he probably won't want to own more than one money pit!
    On the other hand, maybe they are looking for several clubs between them all, clubs that can help each other out with favourable player loans etc.

    You're the only one arguing, it seems to be the only reason you ever kmd on here.

    I'm not backtracking in any way, I've posted what I believe and stand by it.

    General chit chat is something else entirely, unless you're specifically looking for an argument.

    I’m sorry. I’m not. I shared what I’d been told and because it when against everyone in here I was insulted, told repeatedly I was 3 other members using a false name and shamed repeatedly despite anyone even knowing me. I’ve simply stood up for myself

    so again, I’ll ask, are you now agreeing that nothings happening and never was?

    Whether you had a source or were making **** up. Think the general consensus was you were making it up and were talking ****. Happy to help you out there marra.

    Sorry, you just choose to believe whatever suits you ...

    ... I've no interest in playing internet forum games of semantics, grammatical nuance and endless hair splitting.

    You'll have to find someone you don't bore to play with.

    No he's not.

    Monty python reference, in case it gets misconstrued!

  17. It seems to be Platek and his family,rather than any corporate entity with business partners.....his daughter Amanda is making comments to the press about it.

    I’ll take that as you ‘Yes’ and you now believe nothings happening. Which is a shame as I was hoping I was wrong and yourself/Magnus/NB’s were correct as the longer SD stays the worse it will be for the club
