I’ve given at least one example of why I doubt him.
It’s an easy game really.
We all know we have interest in the club, there’s a chance it will come off so just claim it’s as good as done, papers with EFL etc.

If it comes off bask in glory of being ITK.

If it doesn’t then it hit an 11th hour hitch but wasn’t it great the excitement it created. Just hoping for best for my club what bastard etc etc.

Nothing has been said that isn’t in public domain or that we couldn’t work out ourselves.

Quite right too. I’ve never been ITK and never will be and therefore like many others, rely on other people keeping me up to date and really appreciate it. Sometimes things just don’t come off, but as long as people post in good faith then that’s good enough for me.

If the miserable sods on here don’t like the info provided, just ignore it rather than being abusive and draining threads.

I was watching motd with our lass and the camera panned into the bench and she said oooh that’s (Can’t remember name) the club doctor. I’m his secretary when he’s working at (her graft) for the NHS, the players are always coming to see him.

I asked her to get juicy info and she told me to fuck off.

It’s been 10 years and she still won’t tell me owt In case he’s still involved in the club.

snakes with tits..

Sounds like it's not just the club this takeover will be good for.

Hope they do develop the area Sunderland deserves and needs it tbh. Amount of money that's been pumped over my way in comparison isn't fair.

Can see them wanting Ellis's hotel for starters.

What agenda?

Something is clearly happening, all Sunderland fans naturally want it to happen as it could herald an exciting new era.

I personally have reservations regarding your apparent info. Now I get there’s plenty who really want to believe you as what you’re saying sounds like what we all hope for.

Should people only be allowed to post on here who lap up all your stories?

of what he’s posted, what don’t you believe?

This is how I see it..

These guys are not here to stay in L1. Why buy a man city for £2billion when you can buy a sleeping giant for £40mil..then spend £100 mill to be back in the prem...and maybe another £300mil to compete with the top 5 and break into the champions league. Afterall we have similar infrastructure and history as Chelsea and man city...a few million will increase the ground to 70k..success over 5 years and a few relative galaticos will fill it.
As well as enjoying the ride and the benefits of owning a big club.

But the main reason I think is Netflix.. our exposure..our heartbreak have touched hundreds of millions worldwide.. now in Season 3 it's going to be Dell computers getting massive publicity....maybe him or his(or partners) became MLFs watching Netflix and now they get the same buzz as when i started playing football manger games in the 90s?.

Look at the Red Bull franchises...its all about the marketing angle..

I guarantee you this if this sale goes through it will make Dell lightful television.(not for the Mags)

You've just about summed up my position too. We're an absolute snip at £50m.
Great work in restructuring by SD, I grudgingly acknowledge the last act by ES (don't forgive him for losing control and jeapordising our club) and thank BM for having the vision to design the SOL for cheap extension possibliity.
There is no other club in British football with the potential of ours at this price.
Light the fuse, stand back and enjoy the show.

This is definitely a plan I’ve heard on the grapevine, several months ago. So much so that some people have had to sign NDA’s about it.

EDIT. Hope I’m allowed to say this now.
