    Most of us are 50% right to be fair

    There will be investment

    There won't be investment

    Had JR not ****ed up and we got promoted, Donald would have sold the club immediately to Mark Campbell, walking away with a tidy profit.

    Maybe you were looking at the wrong schedule.

    Hardly. I don't think anyone expected Donald to be selling up so soon. Happened so fast.

    Possibly but if we'd gone up with Ross and that team, plus 'investment' from Donald, we'd have been embarrassed imo.

    I don't go along with this 'facts' that the club would've been worth a fortune, simply by going up, or that Donald would've had buyers queuing round the block.

    He might've even believed he was a football genius who could pull it off again and get to the PL.

    yeh and I think a lot of people assume that Donald would have immediately sold us if we’d gone up, but it’s become incredibly clear since he was banking entirely on PL money.

    It’s not gone unnoticed that his final stake was sold as soon as we could no longer be promoted this year. It was all completed and announced BETWEEN our losing semi final and the final :D. That’s quite something

    I guess the deal was all already agreed with two prices, one with promotion and one without. And then as soon as the outcome was clear they just had to pull the trigger to finalise it

    Am really hoping this has been forced by KLD/Sartori proposing some capital investment that Donald can't, or won't be able to provide his pro-rata amount.
