I think hes been brutally honest tonight, he gave the most clear indication on how the club was bought and also admitted there was a takeover price discussed, yet looking at the bbc threat hes still getting slated

Hes also contradicted pretty much everything charlie said on sunday and pretty much all of what hes said in the last 12 months.

I think a lot has been very ambiguous over the last year but tonight hes explained it the most clearly
 
I seem to be in a minority, but he sounds a lot more straight forward and up front than Methven. This whole loan thing looks like a big mistake by not being up front about what it is from the start, or from when it was announced. The description of it as an investment with no link to Sunderland thing was never going to fool anyone.

Likely going to be slated for this but having seen fans reactions to donalds interview tonight I totally understand why hes stepped back.
He clearly explained that this “loan” is against madrox and they are the only ones at risk if it goes tits up. If it happens these billionaires would then own the club. We know juan could easily put the money in if he wanted or you get get a bank loan, so the question is why exactly have they got this money from the americans? Because its the start of a long term relationship with them

How can Madrox be the only ones at risk if it goes tits up when a third party would then end up with the keys to the AOL and the SOL in that scenario? A third party who may or may not have an interest in football.

Before you say "oh they must have an interest in football". They have an interest in their money first and football second. Donald might say they have an interest but his track record isn't great. King Fudge

Same. I still like Donald, but we need action, we need results. It's what happens on the pitch that matters and they left us alarmingly short in the summer, that's what's most disapponting.

It was clear Grigg and Wyke were not good enough yet we've persisted with them. The football's awful, slow, boring and turgid.

So by your OP comment Stewie is telling the truth . So it must be Meths who told lies on the pod cast. All he is doing tonight (stewie) is fire fighting the podcast comments by Methven.. Loan to Madrox is Nothing to do with Safc......Of course it is, they are using SAFC and assets as collateral...Not Bridle insurance assets.
