We'd still be in the prem I imagine but he really didn't have a clue did he. If only it'd occurred to him to get someone like our own Dave Jones onboard to give him advice, might have saved him a few million.

We'll be back there soon enough mate.
That someone was Naill Quinn

Mr Short gets my respect for the way he left the club...he could easily have been a 'greedy bugger' and tried to eek out the very last penny he could (are you listening SD?)

once again i see a few minor 'arguments' starting to grow, do i believe all i read in here?...do i hell...but i still enjoy reading the bits of info we tend to get offered (no smoke without fire) then get deflated by some saying things aint that good ;)

i also honestly think this will be a very low key thing if/when it does happen, no fanfare, no tickertape, no sky news yellow thing...just a little press release and off we go so i feel in that respect a good few are going to feel 'let down' by it all.
 
I was threatened with legal action for things I posted on here.

I was also told junior reporters are encouraged to set up accounts so they can pick up quotes to use or, if all fails, quote themselves ...

... "Sunderland supporters outraged at Parkinson defending Wyke, read these comments."

That kind of thing.
Not just junior ones sadly

Was the legal action a genuine legal thing or was it just some nutcase trying to shut you down?

I can imagine the club keeping an eye on fan opinion because why wouldn't they I'm just struggling to imagine Donald personally stepping in to censor forums, he seems too sane for that.

I wouldn't think Donald scours the forums but, at the time of the takeover, I'm sure he'd have wanted to see how the supporters were reacting. As I was quite prominent I've no doubt my username would've been noticed especially as I was being specific. I received an RTG pm that was inviting me to 'cease and desist' along with an email address that checked out, I didn't respond and didn't stop but was banned from posting.

I also had threatening pms, on here, from some idiot pretending to represent the club ...

... that turned out to be Pancho, the Mod <laugh>
(Check out 'Hotlips', hilarious.)

I'll see if I still have the pms and hoy them up.

Interesting that.

I messaged Prehab last night and he won't mind me saying, he is completely lost to why posts were getting deleted. Replies to it too. He ain't sure if RTG staff are trying to protect him as he was furious yday to be fair, or trying to throw him under.

I doubt it's that mate, he was saying nothing outrageous or defamatory.

I just think the Mods are poor at their jobs.

Why was he furious?

2 bits of bad news I think. Close mate had a personal tragedy and as he said on the main thread, another was made redundant.
Had some real bad luck himself and close mates recently. He will get over it like, strong lad, but will have to watch what he is doing as he can really go off on one when the chips are down. He will genuinely know so much of what's going on and could ignite it all. Wouldn't want him to get into bother for spouting some home truths.
 
I was following that thread last night and read nothing into it, other than Johnson/The Rat is an utter ****. I would hate to be that bitter, twisted and so full of negativity every single ****ing day of my life.

I am sure Prehab had a big run in with that other poster a few year ago. Might be wrong like but remember him mentioning it to me

That's a shame for him. Hope he's ok. Yeah wouldn't want him getting into bother.

I don’t think I’ve ever disliked someone I’ve never met and don’t know as much as I do him.
He’s a horrible character

I’ve got him on ignore and had him on for a while. There’s a line between spite and banter and he’s well over it
 
Prehab now saying he doesn’t believe it is as close as some people are making out. I think Stewart Donald is playing funny buggers again (my guess, not his words). I hope Donald loses a ****ing fortune.
Like I said last night I’ve got no business brain at all but I just can’t fathom it out because surely every day he doesn’t sell costs him and loses him money.

Just sent him a WhatsApp. Said he meant 'as in imminently, as some others are saying, still definitely on going though '

Asked him to post on here and his reply was '****ing no chance, one forum is enough! "
