Sale is close - Barnsey

[Shieldsman]

Armstrong involves in the MG deal? Him and Donald hate each other.

That horrible greedy little bastard, he will never be seen in the north east again, f***ing little shithouse

I hate the bloke, total fraud, coward and worse owner in our history... when he does eventually go he won't be remembered well at all / universally hated. Hope for his own sake he doesn't set foot up here again.

 

[LukeJH96]

Not even Donald and Co could be that petulant.

So let's get this straight, this group/consortium pulled out of a 30mill + deal after weeks of negotiations because MG had an argument with SD ?

 

[Coeus]

ive thought that for ages, its ashley on a way smaller scale

Mike Ashley is absolutely competent, his record shows.

I don't think this is anywhere near the same.

except Ashley seems to know what he’s doing

So MG was the group with exclusivity? They might have backed out but they were never in pole position anyway were they?

 

[Bradaz1]

Maybe the bearded loon has actually put a bid in and its better than what was on the table and instead of saying "fuck you northern bastards am taking the bigger offer and f***ing off" he'll say "unfortunately we couldn't agree on certain aspects and they pulled out, leaving the storey offer which I took as the fans want me out"

Not even Donald and Co could be that petulant.

I strongly disagree. I think he is.

 

[Wendall Gee]

I get mixed up at times, but I thought it was another group who had the NDA in place and not MGs lot.

 

[LukeJH96]

I strongly disagree. I think he is.

To not go through with a multi million pound deal because of Micky Gray? I very much doubt it.

 

[Mk Mackem]

Not with Debenhams and the 14k people employed by them he isn't...

 

[sinner]

Micky gray

Looking for a light and end of long dark tunnel. I was a bit concerned MG called 37m 'astronomical', as I reckon that is nowt for a club like us, and shows to me his group might not have the finances. Pure conjecture and hearsay, I know.
Based on other sources of information pretty sure other parties still at table, hopefully not the Covid 19 denier.
What a f******g time. I used to like Donald and still don't think he is a crook, but this is not good for our blood pressure.

@prehab26 you heard same?

 

[Safc1987]

Sunderland AFC will always be bigger than Stewart Donald. Take heart from every day he is here he is losing more money, it may take us to go to near ruin to force him out but people will always be interested in buying us.

 

[Nig]

They have 100% walked away. Deal was agreed 3 weeks ago but his little childish behaviuor has pissed them off.

Shirley he must have a better offer in the wings otherwise with season ticket sales so low atm he risks many more supporters staying away ?

Hopefully it isn't Storey and that bid turns out to be bollocks.
If Donald has turned it down and nothing else is on the table he really is a fooking numpty.

It sounds ridiculous to me.Then again look at the past two years...

 

[RichD]

Aye a six foot one

 

[molthemackem]

You may as well name those involved now.

Not just yet, wait for the waters to calm down a bit...
