Either the journalists are talking crap or these supposedly intelligent businessmen are in self destruct mode. Is it just me, or is anyone else wondering why someone would be prepared to offered an extra £50m for a business if the current bid falls through. In the real world most people would tend to come in with a smaller bid knowing the current owner is looking to sell and struggling to get his price.

Either way, if it’s making certain people panic until it’s confirmed, it’s fine by me.
 

I still find it hard to believe that anyone would buy a football club at the moment. No one knows what the whole of English Football is going to look like in 6 to 12 months time.

Never mind spending £350 million on a Club that could be in the Championship next season.

So why the need to mention it then? What does it have to do with the takeover or NUFC?

Hope is an absolute cretin of a journalist and well suited to the Mail.

I’m no fan of the Mail but do you not think Ashley is acting the c*nt the way he has behaved during this recent crisis? The bloke is an absolute prick and the fact that many Sunderland fans would welcome him with open arms is beyond belief.

Aye, let's get the tea towels out for the murderous (potential) new owners instead...

I don't think it is. I assume that as a Sunderland fan you haven't watched Newcastle this season?

We are terrible. How we have accrued as many point as we have, is beyond me.

We have 9 games left, 3 of which are Spurs, City and Liverpool. 5 of the others are basically 6 pointers. We could easily get dragged down into it.

Not behind closed doors. To get out of trouble the teams at the bottom will need a home crowd to help them.

I’d rather have someone that cut my wages by 10% than Murdered my wife and children.

no debate Ashley’s business practices are crap but let’s be honest most business owners are.

MAGS ENABLING MURDERERS SINCE 2020

Good chance they will be getting a large slice of the northeast stadium concert business from Live Nation if it goes through.

They’ve just announced no more child killing. Great set of lads. Keep up.

This Henry Mauriss fella sounds like a better option. Has a plan to run the club like Liverpool. But that takes time and he isn't an Awab man. I wonder if this was the second bidder that Richard Keys was talking about? He said Ashley would prefer to sell to the other bidder.

I think Ashley would prefer to sell to the higher bidder I don't think he would give a rats arse who they are or what their intentions for the club are.
