The mooted structure, personnel and player links. Tbf it doesn’t take much to have a vastly superior plan on the pitch than the shitshow that Donald and his cronies have served up.

Bring in Jon Parkin as DoF who is regarded as a super scout. Falkirk been a feeder club. The list of potential signings and having discussions with the manager about transfers. That is way ahead of anything Donald had planned.

I think he was being backed by a Far East consortium to buy us and he was buying Falkirk. Something happened when they checked the books. Donald was ready to sell to them.

Wonder how far anyone is from the price he wants for it. Must be a fair way, its been for sale for a year at least. At some point the price has to come down if he is genuinely looking to sell.

I doubt he'll entertain anything less than a £10M profit. He probably thinks that now that we're not bleeding money he can just sit on the club until someone stumps up the £30M. In reality he risks seeing the value continue to fall until he's begging someone to take it off his hands before he loses what he's already spent. Alternatively, Parky could mould a load of journey men into a team that runs away with the league next season and SD cashes in. Stick or twist Stewie?

He’s already on record as saying that he’s looking for Safc to make up his losses from Eastleigh. That’s the £10m. Add in the £9m he owes FPP and it makes the supposed £40m asking price all the more believable.

So we have to pay for his f***ing failure at Eastleigh as well as here

This is spot on, why does Donald think he should make up the money he lost at Eastleigh, he said he lost £15 m in 6 and 1/2 years their on Radio Newcastle interview (that is very hard to believe, as put another way imagine Hartlepool losing £15m in just over 6 years trading that’s some bad operating), by selling our club for a massive profit after the mess he’s made.
Totally deluded.
