Yes but he mentioned “tomorrow” being an important day, not the next 3 months

yeh sorry was just pointing out that verbal to signed can be lengthy. Obviously I don’t know what tomorrow is but sounds encouraging for progress at least.

Will take 3 points for now mind

You know me mate. Not into semantics. Just saying what I have been told.

I messaged out last week to people the situation and to be honest , I feel a bit daft as I was told from a optimistic perspective and I relayed it. That said , it's ongoing, same party and likely to complete.
No need to feel daft fella - can only relay what you’re told and if that’s an optimistic view then so be it. If it’s negative likewise. Keep it up

I am assuming we are those 3 months down the line now, not ITK. And the reluctance to say it’s a done deal is because there is no signature just yet

Within reason, always. Been a good 12 years of this type of **** ha.

All good though. Most people won't have a club what's happened behind the scenes with situation, from what I have been told, it's been the ultimate rollercoaster. Lots of interest, people close then dropping etc. But there has always been one party who have been solid. Clear funds and a plan, that's the party we are in talks with.
 
Wasn't going to post but sod it.

I was told earlier there's a 'Microsoft Teams' meeting on Tuesday to finalise what to announce. In all honesty I had to Google 'Microsoft Teams' but it seems to be what you see on Question Time.

The lad who sent me this info isn't a lifelong friend but he's lifelong Sunderland supporter.

FFS, let it be true.

You bliddy Luddite, even I knew what it was. Anyhow, thanks for that, sounds very good indeed
 
If it's not sorted by the end of next week, I am very concerned.

Let's see. There is an agreement verbally but tomorrow is an important day in terms of taking it further.

Fingers crossed.

Fingers and toes crossed here.. 3 points and progress off the pitch would make it a damn fine weekend
 
I’m trying to be geet clever mate,I only know because like most companies ours dumped Skype for Teams and was forced to use it

<laugh>

I'm controlled by a 4 year old who guides me through new technology like I'm landing a Jumbo Jet after the pilot had a heart attack ...

... "No Grandad not that button!"
 
not if tonnes of contracts and enquiries and due diligence to be covered. You verbally agree to buy a house and then it takes 3 months to sign. This is a f’ing big house.

hopefully the verbal agreement is post DD rather than pre.
In football terms it's chicken feed, the buyers should in reality be getting a bargain (even at £37m) if they run it well and with the right people in place.
