FPP to take full control

Just a bit of hope please? A bit of light at the end of this tunnel.

Its not a lot to ask

 

I'd guess there are people who could a much better job than Donald ...

... he's hardly indispensable is he.

He's also lost all momentum as well as the trust of the supporters.

 

Cheers Smug. So FPP could be poised to strike or are still interested at least - at the right price. Sorry, I appreciate you’re probably not able to clarify exactly.

It’s all about fine margins. Had we defended Mandron’s last minute shot, and not got beat off Rochdale, we would be celebrating automatic promotion tonight. Mind you could say that about a lot of dropped points last season i.e disallowed goal against Bolton on Boxing Day.

 

We can only hope mate. My feeling is that if something is going to happen it'll happen quickly because I think it would have been as a result of 2 prices being agreed depending on what league we were in. That question being settled would mean they could move quickly (if that happened it would have to be FPP who already have £9m in the club and have done DD). If it drags on a few weeks then sadly I think it'll be Donald and co again

 

could this be, finally, a bit of light at the end of the tunnel? we can but hope.

 

This is my only hope that we had to officially no which division we would be in next season before a price could be agreed
However after the pandemic I'm not sure if the deal would still stand or would need renogoaiated

 

I agree we need it sorted quick

 

You'll be alreet on here, it's not rtg.

 

This for FPP taking over?

Bloody hope so mate

 

Exactly

 

Really hope your right. I worry though that FPP are used to playing the long game and may be happy just to let it all completely fall apart then pick up the pieces.

 

Cheers mate, it's not really that

I'm trying to avoid appearing to be all vague and mysterious, I know people are as desperate as me for news.

But I've been asked not to post anything other than I've already posted ...

... and he's threatening to get me at playtime if I do!

 

Fair do's, you'd only open up yourself to be shot at from the knackers as per usual, not worth the hassle for you tbh.

 

That’s fair dos mate, it makes it a bit better knowing that you’ve posted more optimism than anything else. Cheers

 

I understand that, I've followed your postings for a while.
It's all a waiting game and what will be will be. We've waited a long time, sonce 1975 for me so its ingrained in me to expect the worst. **** happens.

 

You are nor the same person as madbob are you . With this ITK stuff?

 

I came on here for optimism, a straw to clutch.

Thank you @Smug in Boots

 

Cheers mate.

At the height of the takeover I answered everyone on the boards, pm's, texts, etc. I was also being sent masses of info from all kinds of people, some respected RTG posters, and having to check it with other trusted people to corroborate it

All that effort resulted in endless attacks, Mod warnings and threats of legal action.

Everything I posted was either genuine first hand info or secondhand from a mate of Methven, a lad whose lass works at the club, etc.

The takeover was described to me as a done deal, later 'confirmed' by Ross, BBC, etc and of course, as a lifelong Sunderland supporter, got myself very excited.

That's all, no intention to mislead anyone.

 

And paying for Rodwell

 

I seem to recall you have always been at pains to mention you were passing on info as a fan and not after plaudits or the abuse that came your way.

Your post seems like your trying to apologise for daring to believe. Something I don't believe you should or need to do
