    I totally agree but, by some crazy coincidence, I've just had a message from someone who knows Methven.

    It's saying the deal is close to being finalised.

    I don't normally post 'info' from this lad, as he's Sunderland daft and even more rose tinted than me, but he's insisting it's first hand info and genuine. That's all I know and I'm just off to do a couple hours work. I'll post any update when I'm back so fingers crossed.

    I can imagine you guys get more than a tad frustrated having to explain yourselves over and over again.

    It drives Grumpy Old Man crazy and is why he won't post on here ...

    ... he'll explain takeover/admin/shares in detail and someone will make a ridiculous statement a few posts later that totally contradicts it all.

    I don't know what kittens has posted elsewhere.

    But 1 person can't be in 2 different places at once. So again, I'm happy for the mods to look into my IP compared to his and post their findings.

    If they are prepared to prove we are 2 different people, I would imagine you'd be prepared to apologise?

    Can you post on here what you've seen? I don't go on RTG, so I don't know what you mean.

    That's great news if true, though I'm still hedging my bets and being cautious. I'm keeping my neck wound in and just letting it take however long it takes, but from you, prehab and Magnus I'm confident of a positive outcome sooner rather than later.

    Thanks for posting, and as others have said you're posting in good faith and aren't pretending to be more informed than you are (unlike Mad Bob). The fact that it's so quiet and so little getting out means people are going to interpret things differently depending on what they hear. Though to throw a bit of my own speculation out there, as we don't really know what Sartoris involvement with us has been, is it possible that he was the one who originally introduced FPP to Sunderland, which is why they're prepared to work with him now?

    Glad you said Smug first the others came latter and he has stood his ground for 13 month or so
    He is the reason I am here and no longer use rtg as this is more concise and can catch up a few days in a short time

    Not really, even Kittens is probably bright enough to use VPN to support his trolling activities.

    Not that I should have to defend my self, but I guess that's what this forum has come to.

    Display any different form of opinion and your instantly labelled a certain disliked poster.

    If I'm correct, I'm probably about the 5th different poster to be labelled kittens? He must have a lot of time on his hands to keep up with so many usernames.

    I'm pretty sure I was on this forum before him too. Maybe kittens made this username in preparation for his future ban?

    Laughable, and a sorry state to see the forum in to be honest.

    Disagree to be fair mate, forums are cross sections of both founded and unfounded facts, also individual opinions. People that wail about the unjustifiable posts, because they don't suit the posters agenda, are basically stamping their feet because others do not agree. Naive, childish and TBH weak as piss.

    I beg to differ 3 different posters with good strong contacts and a sports journalist Who’s close to the club plus people that used to work for safc have suggests there’s a takeover. Oh and I forgot an idiot across the road has also hinted. How much do you need

    Okay then, the fly in the ointment both him and Methven..Should FPP or GF buy up Donald's shares in the entirety, it doesn't matter what these two do.. FPP could and probably would dilute the share holding if they both remain reducing even further their worth..

    To be fair you've only come up with 3 Anonymous posters on the internet and a local journalist that has since backtracked.

    It's not much in the grand scheme of things.

    It’s 3 posters with good contacts and aren’t wums. They’re good solid fans that would do anything for the club and fans and are posting the things they hear with good faith from people close to the deal. Barnes has not backtracked as of yet he just keeps saying end of month, someone within the club told him originally. Small bits and pieces are coming out suggests there’s a takeover.

    Just realise kittens is saying things to get a reaction and he sort of got one off me so I’ll just ignore what he posts from now on
