    If he appointed the likes of Marwood to run the football operations I’d love it. Won’t happen like.

    I meant the combination of Marwood and Short. I believe Marwood has a connection to Methven however.
    Are you actually a punk ?

    If he intended to return surely it would be for the right reasons. Couldn't see someone coming back for the wrong reasons. It would take a long time to get back any new investment not including what has already been lost the last time he was here.

    Where’s the fun in announcements when we can spend our working lives looking at this thread?

    Seriously though, it’s gone on way too long.

    Regarding Short, I think he seems a decent bloke and at least he had a go at it, so I definitely don't have any ill will where he's concerned.

    That being said I wouldn't want him anywhere near us . Ultimately he brought us to the brink of bankruptcy. Fair enough, he did the right thing in the end with writing debts off, but I wouldn't want to risk him coming back and just hoping that he's learned how to run a football club. All of his club staff appointments were dreadful and all contributed to where we ended up. He wouldn't suddenly be hands on, and I doubt he'd suddenly break the habit of a lifetime and get an appointment right. Hell even his last big decision, which safe pair of hands to place the club into, ended up with these jokers running us.

    Apparently he still follows our results, will always like the club, but has no intention of ever being involved again, which is absolutely the right decision imo. He can't afford another massive loss and it would finish us as a club if it happened.

    Sounds like it's setting up to be something completely left field from what's being said on here. If someone has actually said no to it being Fuhrman, I would take it to mean it isn't him or FPP (other than the involvement they need due to the loan). I just imagine they'd say "he might be part of it", or "not him on his own" or something, rather than outright saying he's not involved.

    Just an impression I get is that there's always been FPP interested and Sartori trying to get a backer to take as much of the club on as he can. Donald has probably pissed FPP off, and sartori has probably found someone wealthy to partner with him, hence this being someone new with money behind them who isn't FPP. Might be completely wrong mind, that's just reading between the lines of what others have said!
