That's his heart telling him that. His head will say there is £ to be made if we get back to the Prem. I can see him taking a cut-price offer if he retains (e.g.) 20%.

What if SD just sold most of his shares and then kept away and had no involvement at all, just in case he could not sell the club

So who are the names in the frame up to now in this supposed takeover ?

Vince McMahon.
Mickey Gray consortium.
Sartori consortium.
William storey consortium.
Mark Campbell.
Sammy Yu.
O'Brien's.
FPP.

Not bad at 8, although 3 are dubious.
Have i missed any ?

Might just be me but can't understand why a grown man would come on a message board and give the old wink wink nudge nudge treatment. I have no doubt Bob gets what he believes to be trust worthy information but if he can't share it fully would it not be best for everyone for him to say nothing? Or am I missing something

I have no issue with SD keeping shares as long as he isn't into decision making. We keep saying this is a risky business and if wants to risk keeping shares hopeful of promotion, that's fine by me. If he makes money, it means we are on the up. I just hope it is one or the other because the only other option of him staying as a majority shareholder would be unacceptable. That is if I am allowed to think that of course

You’ve obviously never felt the thrill of attention seeking

Take out.
VM, MG, WSC, MC, SYU, O,B'S Leave in FPP and JS then add 2 OR 3 investors and IMHO i think that's where it will end up.
This is not fact or starting another rumor it is just how i think the club will be re shaped.

Dennis Longhorn used to know about transfers, Ceefax did , Prehab still knows some stuff player wise and there was an Irish guy used to post the team the night before. Bob knows club stuff through Bally and it sounds like JR these days plus he knows some non Sunderland ex players.

There's plenty that get bits of info. The ones you list above and others besides. The issue always comes when they start to claim omniscience

I take it you are suggesting that FPP would be purely the loan, otherwise they wouldn't need JS or others
The more I think about it, especially with Barnes talking about an internal redistribution, would suggest he is turning the loan into shares and JS can have whatever is left
