From what i was told Saturday, definitely. But, couple hrs ago got told the other party aren't feeling too confident now. Donald doesn't want them for personal reasons.

His intentions are fairytale stuff mate.

Hopefully then, Rodwell and Jones will tell him to do one. But sounds like Donald is willing to fuck us over for personal gain

My take on it is (presuming the 2 or 3 parties rumour is true) is that one is under NDA in a period of exclusivity but it's not Storey hence why he's communicating.

He is however trying to drum up fan support in the hope we force SD to sell to him.

So he is in the race by virtue of his declaration that he wants to buy, not necessarily the quality of his bid, probably running in 3rd place but hoping he will win the race should the other 2 fall at final hurdle.

I think you may be right. I have signed NDA's before regarding potential takeovers, and he is so far in breach of any standard terms that it would be pointless even making him sign one if you didn't enforce it when he talks about the issues facing Donald's internal stakeholders, going public on what he wants to do etc.

Which hopefully means that there is a legitimate bidder hiding somewhere and making steady progress. At the end, Storey portrays it all as him being gazumped, rather than not having the cash.

It still all reeks though. Got to question why anyone is buying us without knowing the wage cap situation, covid impact etc.
 
Got the wireless on, looking forward to hearing from this lunatic and crack open a #can to here from Storey on radio Newcastle
