    Hopefully he does, itwould be good to cross reference his psyche over the two boards

    Seen the reply, lad saying its Donald. I thought the general concensus was that it is Methven

    Well I feel lower than a snakes belly. I come on here and there are 3 million posts about the accounts, none of which show the club well, I go on rtg and it's all doom and SD is the devil.

    The new manager appears to be no where near being announced and we will face Wycombe half prepared.

    This uncertainty is threatening to derail our season off and on the pitch and in my opinion the club need to act and act fast.

    If the takeover is off for what ever reason, then announce it and deal with the backlash

    If Parkinson or Ainsworth is going to be manager then announce it and deal with the backlash

    The club need to step up now be it with good news or bad

    Can I just remind people that I'm just passing on info from various people.

    Sometimes I post my opinion in which case I post imo.

    The only time it's a fact is when I say so.

    As an example it's a fact that I saw a WhatsApp, from Fuhrman, saying he'd 'bought the club'.

    I've also said it's a fact that the Americans are still there and Donald is the obstacle.

    I'm 99% sure Donald is stringing things along, and hoping he can attract another investor, before he has to accept their offer.

    I believe he's hoping to 'sell the club' but retain control ...

    ... my faith in him, to do the right thing for the club, is slowly fading.

    For clarity and the benefit of eyes from over the road. I am in no way doubting what you have posted or in any way saying you shouldn't have posted it.

    Just wanted to make that clear as the agenda against you and the club from certain people gets to me and I don't want my earlier post twisted or taken in the wrong way

    Really nasty atmosphere building towards Donald now,which I said to someone at graft would happen before the season started .
    The takeover and all the **** that’s went with it plus the debacle with the manger etc has escalated it quicker than I ever thought .

    Hopefully what your saying is wrong and he’s looking to do the best by us and himself ...

    Starting to feel the same way mate if he wants the best thing for the club and they don't want him there then he should move on.

    He will be moving on with a well deserved bag of money but if he is the deal breaker in this situation the fans will quickly turn and rightly so.

    Well if he's decided he should have his cake and eat it too by not letting the takeover proceed without his position retained, then he should get stick.

    Especially since how he's handled all this has reeked amateurish... yet the new owners have to keep him as #1 professional??

    IF that is the situation, I couldn't blame the American group at all telling him to pound salt. They prolly want their own guy anyways... and either way, the've likely seen enough tomfoolery with how things have been handled so far to know they don't want the Donald. The ALS T-shirts prolly solidified that...

    SD's timing in sacking JR was bazaar and foolish. He was already dealing with so much pressure, negotiating the investment/takeover and then doubles the pressure in his search for the right manager to take the club forward and keep the fans onside.

    This could all implode on him if he makes the wrong decisions. He must feel like he's standing on a cliff edge, take the wrong step and it's all over
