Businessmen tbf but that article ffs
‘Oxford-educated Methven has been particularly masterful. He can stroll into the Colliery Tavern, a pub across the road from the Stadium of Light, in his red chinos on match days and enjoy a pint with the locals.‘

Daily Mail editor is one Geordie Greig. Unless his middle name is gravy I don't know how much more mag you can get.

takeover talk before the semi final first leg and now this shite before the final
Craig Hope
'nuff said
It is a bit dodgy like, they are only here for one thing lets be honest and have barely spent a penny of their own money
Not sure Short had this in mind when he wiped the debt like, a quick flip and profit.
Using the clubs own money to pay short isnt great like
Expect them to be backed to the hilt as usual though.
Not common knowledge that he has only put forward £5m of his own money like
What not using his own money to buy the club?

"No regulations will have been breached and no laws would have been broken. But two men who seduced Sunderland’s fans with their long-term vision for ‘a family club’ would return to their own family homes in Oxfordshire significantly richer"
They could have also gone home a bit poorer if we'd had another absolutely shit season. That's the way business investment works, it's a bit of a gamble. Especially on summat as distressed as SAFC was. If they do go home with a few quid I wouldn't begrudge them it, unless they hived us off to another absolute fucktard like Short.

The Mags f***ing hate us
The Mail causing trouble just before our biggest game of the season.
Whatever their financial position, our owners have worked for and with us and have done more for the club in working to turn it around than the disengaged regime they took over from.
I am happy with them and if they do leave and it benefits them I would still expect them not to asset strip but to leave us in a healthier position than when they took over.

If he makes 37 million after spending as little as he has then its sly as fuck like. They are being made out to be heroes, and I am not sure why
Too many blatant digs that mean I doubt the story. I mean they all but imply that they hired the RR lad just to stop him questioning them about finance.
Then there's the "weirside". Ah, and it's written by known mag Craig Hope.
