These are the days of the conspiracy theory, fake news and much more, you can hardly blame people for questioning stuff, they should do it more!

I love how he's flashing the same £50M he did when he took over the F! team, you know the money that didn't exist. I'm right in the Donald bashing camp now but don't honestly think he would deal or sell to Storey, he did come here with the intention of a quick promotion and hefty profit, salmon pants on the other hand would love to kill the club and that's what will happen if Storey gets a foot in the door, he's got nowt and it's purely for a quick ego massage as he proved with Haas.

At first I thought the guy was an idiot and a chancer and this was all one big publicity stunt
But having listened to his interview on Radio Newcastle, Im now unsure.
I thought he came across fairly well... And saying he would only be investing 20 per cent while the other members put up 80 per cent has allayed some fears. He seems a genuine football fan.
The huge negative is why would he call the people you are trying to a deal with financial locusts. It's a crazy way of doing business and if I was Stewart Donald and I heard that interview I wouldn't entertain him. He seems very brash and outspoken but I do think this is a genuine bid
He mentioned 2 figures in his consortium have been involved in sports management.
I'm going to take a wild guess without any inside knowledge who one may be
Jack sullivan... The West Ham owners son... Here's why Storey is a West Ham fan who is good friends with David Sullivan. Storeys drinks firm sponsered West Ham Ladies while Jack Sullivan was manager. And in a interview I read with David Sullivan jnr he said Jack was more likely to run a football club than David jnr.

Marra, he's a total fantasist and would see the club go to the wall to see his face in the papers. Google Storey / Haas F1 team. I would rather keep Donald and stay in division 3 forever than let this wanker anywhere near the club, at least we will still have a club with Donald, he can't afford to let us go to the wall.

Who turns up for a meeting to buy a club, in a replica shirt, pushes the photo out on social, and then does a radio interview, slagging people off? He's a publicity hound. This is all about him, not us. He'll be a nightmare for us, and we should avoid him a all costs.

I've read all the stuff on him and I agree he sounded a complete fantasist,and I don't actually think he would be a good owner but I am starting to believe this is a genuine bid which could be worrying. The backers you have heard of with sports management experience has got me intrigued.

Just his name linked to our club scares the shite out of me if I'm honest.

I totally agree mate. My personal view of him is he’s had a taste of being in the spotlight on a Netflix documentary: Drive to Survive being the ‘sponsor’ for Haas F1 Team and then pulling out midway through the Racing season. He knows we’ve had a deal with Netflix and wants another bite of cherry using us as his platform. He claimed he had the financial backing from 4 billionaires for the F1 venture, now he’s claiming the same for us. I honestly hope we stay clear of this fantasist, as he’s f***ing dangerous!

He's nowhere near taking over the club, it's probably all just a stunt to drum up interest and some publicity for him and his company.

This is my exact thoughts on the bloke getting linked to SAFC.

I really hope Rodwell has turned up to tell him to stop this takeover publicity stunt, rather than it being a meeting about the takeover!

QPR had massive backers....that went well.
its no from me, agree with those saying drive us to the wall, might sell assets to use cash, its just got a bad smell of going badly wrong to me

And your negative speculation is based on what?
Wish lads like u would post solid FACTS about him instead of oooh he's a fantasist, publicity seeker, chancer... fhs man

Donald came across well for a while.
I’d hope as a fanbase we won’t fall for any PR bollocks again.
