Takeover Rumours

Not open for further replies.
I can't remember any leaks/prior notice when S. Mansoor took over from Shinawatra.


My mate who is a massive city fan said the first he head was when it was officially announced. so it can if needed be kept under wraps

There's people on here and in the media saying it's not a new manager that is the delay....due diligence just stated on total sport.

I've no problem with a delay...as long as it goes thru.

Due diligence? Someone at the club leaked last week that had all been finished.....

You might be right, but then from what @Reiver has been saying it's not really something you can put a definite timeframe on, he's suggested even the owners don't have a clear idea of when it can all be announced. Sounds like there's some issues, but if they can be resolved in a week or so it's likely not major legal issues. In that case there's every chance that it might randomly be resolved this week or drag into next, BBC Newcastle might simply be being cautious in their estimate

I must have missed the bit where it was explained how reiver is itk - not saying he isn’t- but he stands to lose a lot of face if it doesn’t come off- I’d log off till it’s known either way if I were him-

Agreed mate.

I was trying to make the point that even if Dell isn't heavily involved financially, we'll still be in a very nice position for a league one club to be in.

It's all good.

Mr dell will be- as will be his 3 billionaire partners (each richer than abramovich) but there is just something wrong- the way that yellow ticker was pulled from sky sports news and nothing more said is odd. NDA’s all ower in due Dilligence so fair doos

Somebody leaked to SSN too early- was that the OP? He is the media mogul of Middle East

OK, this is all I have and it's not much I'm afraid.

The impending pre-match press interview is being discussed, around the club, more than usual.

That could be for any amount of reasons so it's barely worth mentioning although it's Wednesday tomorrow and not even the run of the mill stuff is coming out .... I'm laughing here BTW, sat in the Turfcutters at East Boldre, and just realised I'm singing along to the Monkees, Daydream Believer.

I'm going over the edge here 😕

Come on, you can do it. Stay with us! This thread has been a massive boost. A lot of that is because of posters like you, and GOM and Cheeses and a few others. We're keeping the faith. I'm *still* buzzing for this takeover. Ha'way the thread ffs. Fookin love SAFC me.

3 men are handling his wealth, those 3 men plus Mr Dell himself are buying Sunderland. It's not simply a quartet from nowhere, it's Dell and the people who run his businesses. Anyway, I just want us to become a top 10 Premiership club and play in Europe, people are getting a little carried away dreaming of title battles with Man City imo.

I think you're getting a bit carried away yourself mate by mentioning Europe mate.

I'm sure they'll do all they can to get us into the Prem asap but Europe could take 200/300/400 by the time we get into the Prem...I'd be happy with a few 10/12th place finishes in the Prem, then hopefully breaking into the top 10.

Hopefully these new lads will signal their intentions when they eventually turn up and we can judge from there.

All I have is questions.

Would I be sending a CV if I was a manager looking for a challenge.

Is the delay inviting that to happen.

Will the new owners want to be in the PL

Will they reward someone who achieves that quickly.

Is Ross the man.

Will the takeover fall flat if absolutely nothing changes.

Do we need energy injecting and momentum created.

Will that happen under the current regime.

Would we bring in a 'DOF' who could slip into place if Ross falters.

That's what I thought when hearing it mate but that's what they are said, they also said that they know people think the are making it up but that's not the case...guess we'll have to wait and see.
