Personally I’ll be sitting on the fence until it’s official on SAFC, just look at the Newcastle saga, hopefully everything will be more clear towards the back end of the week

also to some people commenting on the spelling of santori the above post was copy and pasted from the messages I received

Was this as well? I don’t care about spelling one but it’s a forum but you’ve spelled it wrong in a post about spelling it wrong <laugh>

The only info/gossip you get is from people you know and therefore trust.

Why wouldn't you accept/hope it's true.

Why wouldn't you tell your mates/post it on a Sunderland chat forum.

Why would you get all riled up and dismissive unless you're a Mag/misery/internet warrior.

People just need to calm down.

If they're so totally dismissive of these posts why on earth would they get so angry. It's like being told an untrue story about a massive meteorite hitting Sunderland, a week on Friday, then bombarding the Echo with emails saying you don't believe.

If people choose to believe no one is trying to buy the club wtf are they doing on takeover threads day and night ...

... just f**k off and stop whining ffs.
 
Did they take that on a house phone <laugh>

Might be better if you go on the fellas Twitter or FB, pretty sure it was a better image than that last year...I cannot link my twitter as im at work and all social media is blocked

well said sir.
 
I've just been asked, by PM, about who sent the messages I was shown last year regarding the takeover.

I've just replied and thought 'wtf, i may as well paste it on here'.

"I was at the house of millionaire art dealer Ben Brown who wanted a couple to manage his estate.

He asked about my accent and I mentioned Sunderland whereupon he laughed. I was a bit peeved until he said 'my mate has just bought your club' and showed me WhatsApp messages where Fuhrman gave him the news and Brown congratulated him etc etc etc.

When the news broke about FPP I assumed that's what Fuhrman actually meant but now looks as if it may have been just him.

That's the reason I went all hysterical, on RTG/606/PM, you just can't get better than first hand info from a billionaire.

I'd defy any Sunderland supporter to act any different mate, you included."


No one had heard of Brown until I mentioned him, then he was subsequently found to be following Fuhrman, on Twitter, by someone on RTG.

I was invited back for lunch/2nd interview but Mrs Smug didn't like the wife so we sacked it off and eventually took this job in the south of France. I was gutted as I thought I'd have a boss who was close friends with the Sunderland owner. Brown is a Chelsea supporter and Fuhrman goes with him when he's over as well as staying at Brown's mansion. If people think I'm capable of making all this up I'll take it as a compliment tbh.

think most of us would have been exactly the same. Hopefully this time it all comes to fruition.

Quite liked him until he got Whitney hooked on crack.

It used to be said, at least in the 17th and 18th centuries (and now also?) That every freeborn English persons right was to spell how he or she choose!

You posted all this last year at the time you broke the news. Why the **** people keep needing you to justify yourself is beyond me.

A fair few, not this lad, keep hoping that if they keep quizzing me they'll eventually trip me up ...

... so far not one of them, in a year, has managed it.

So they just call me a liar cos that's all they have.

From my mate, the accountant, if anyone is interested ...

...
Donald's £37m is a price tag for the sale of Sunderland by Madrox. If, however, Fuhrman was to buy Donald's 74% of Madrox, the price tag could change considerably. As of July 2019, Donald's personal cost (primarily loans from him to Madrox) was £11.2m, not £37m.

Didn't the 'FPP' loan go directly to Madrox, if so we're almost there <laugh>
