I've been promised first hand information and will post everything I can.

This is someone new to me and I may do some work for them so don't want to betray any confidence.

However he volunteered the previous info, over the phone, as if it were common knowledge.

Sorry mate, that just took me by surprise ... despite working for a Sheikh, for four years, I know very little about the UAE.

As far as the new people are concerned I've only been told about the deal being done and the fact that it's a 'legacy project and long term'.

I know nothing about the personalities, their wealth or backgrounds.

I can't do any searches because people like them, and the wealthy I know, usually have tracking agencies who monitor searches on them or their companies.

Imagine if I posted names & companies on here ....

... there'd be an overload and missiles deployed :lol:

None of those are Sunderland and none of their owners are worldwide household names ...

... other than that there's only the massive difference in wealth I suppose :confused:

aye I read that. That’s what worried me a bit. Like the other poster said though, hopefully that doesn’t matter. And as long as the yanks understand this and trust Don, all good.
