Takeover Rumours

Missed about 50 pages as I actually had to do some work.

Whats going on? Did the plane divert to Manchester? Is the announcement coming at tea time? Have they changed their minds? Have we announced Mbappe yet?

Why?

Do you think these are the kind of people to be also rans? Why would they bother?

I just feel they are looking at our stadium to be used as multi purpose arena more than anything else. They have no history in plowing money into sports teams, so I think that they will be very prudent regarding any money for our football team.. History has taught me never to have too high expectations regarding Sunderland..

If you can't get excited by this potential takeover then you may aswell pack it in to be honest. Aye it might be total shite and they do nowt but now is the time to actually think of being in the champions league in 10 years time not worrying about them being prudent with money :lol:

If we can't get excited about the possibilities with these owners then there's not much point bothering with football tbh. Yes we might fuck things up, or maybe they'll not invest half as much as we hope and we'll win nowt. They aren't here to see their club stuck in the championship though, and they've got the funds to make sure we aren't. They'll obviously want to build something here. I actually feel genuinely sorry for any SAFC fan who isn't excited by this news, the only thing I can think of that would be better is actually winning something; knowing we can actually compete with any other club which might help us be successful in the future is the next best thing

Just as an aside, by all accounts Methven has been instrumental in this, he's had a bit of a rough ride from some (mainly due to some ill advised comments like) but he deserves a hell of a lot of gratitude when it all goes through

I wouldn't hold your breath. There are some very bitter people on this forum who can't admit what a great job they have done.

The grief they have received from a section of our support is very odd.
