Takeover in trouble

[pwsafc]

IF it's true then Donald needs to be proactive and crack on with preparations for the new season (5 weeks away?). If he gets this season wrong the fans will turn on him and support will plummet imo. If he wants to safeguard his investment there can't be any ambiguity about who's running the club this summer.

Not sure what people don’t grasp on here, the investment isn’t affecting current seasons plans

No big deal we dont need investment in league 1 it's when we go up that it's needed

This^ Nixon is even stating it as a takeover when it wasn’t, just further investment

 

[TopCat]

He once said we had signed Cristian Rodriguez from athletics Madrid he lost all credibility then for me

The Onion?

the lack of investment might be affecting it though

 

[skullmeister]

But they could say nothing rather than outright, explicitly lying which is what you’re saying they’re doing.

You’ve said you know Gordon Armstrong well. Does your source mix in similar circles?

Wouldn't surprise me if this was the case.

If its true Donalds get rich scheme has well and truly gone to shit and another summer of free transfers is coming up.

A Sun journalist getting his facts wrang

 

[gazza.1990]

Nope. Take a look at his retweets

Hes commented saying the retweet was a mistake

 

[heroesof73]

Was his source at the club Baine?

probably--doubt he could even get his name right

 

[pwsafc]

The parachute payment that was used to buy the club... will the club get that money back?

It wasn’t used to buy the club, Donald has already explained all this

He said that we are in great financial shape he's also said that investment might or might not happen at the minute

This^ do some people not read what Donald has said

 

[PhilSAFC]

Aye?

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

Someone posted, from a reliable source, that Donald turned up paralytic to the charity event last night and was unable to talk.

Others also posted having heard the same....

And people who were at the talk said precisely the opposite. Looks like someone's trying to co-ordinate some serious smearing.

Do people not listen the investment is not needed for this season

SUNDERLAND. Takeover in trouble. Buyer Mark Campbell’s group now want to pay less. Not gone down well. All sorts of haggling. Doesn’t look like being done this window if at all.

No shit

 

[ilovehorswill]

Baffles me how folk on here seem so eager to believe a proven Mag shitehawk who writes for the gutter press, so they can be their usual pessimistic selves about the new season.

Nixon desperate to be seen as itk. Stirring up troubled waters to see if he gets more gossip.

Yes. Another agent.

What proof/evidence do you have of this?

 

[worcestermakem]

My guess, for what it’s worth (nowt), based on posts from Speedy and Grumpy Old Man would be accusations of some sort of fraud.

Be careful when you bandy words like 'fraud' about and drag others down with you.

But Shirley free transfers would save him money and keep him rich

Exactly.

Definitely no fraud implied from me. Or anything else illegal.
