Just caught up on last night and comments on here. Firstly, grown adults throwing insults and threats around on a message board is nothing short of embarrassing.
Let’s just hope that the news that broke last night is somewhat accurate and by the end of the week the club is in better hands. If you’ve come on here and posted accurate information, everyone appreciates it. If you’ve come on here and made stuff up get attention on a message board and that’s what makes you tick, then each to their own. I won’t be losing sleep or throwing insults about over it.

You're fuelling the fire by saying "the news that broke last night". How can some random no mark posting total and utter cackbabble on a rival messageboard be "news"?

Okay then, the information, the message, or whatever you want to call it that got out last night. I did say lets hope that it's somewhat accurate. I'm not fueling anything I'm merely hoping the club is in better hands sooner rather than later

I've seen first hand what Donald has done or tried to do with our club. Damage? I can't agree.

There’s a lot of immediate damage even before going into the finer/background damage. The main ones impacting us on the pitch are;

-We’re starting league 1 for a third consecutive year and the squad has got weaker every year
- Phil Parkinson is manager
- The academy has been decimated under his ownership whilst his pal with no experience has ran it. All these young players that could have made a difference here gone.

Yeah but other than those points he's been nothing but good for the club 😂
 
A lot of wishful thinking on here last night. I can’t see the combi posted elsewhere last night getting together myself. Be good if they did though.

Have there ever been cases of rival consortiums joining up in both theirs and a clubs best interests?.....forget I asked that. Please. How naive does that question sound eh? Awww gawd I’ve embarrassed myself haven’t I? New smb ID reqd I think. I’ll nivver live that down. The shame the shame. I can’t move back up north again can I? Aaah well, every cloud eh?

He is as embarrassing as the bloke he is trying to defend.
Best thing about him ‘working’ there was him not posting on here. Whilst always sad to see a person out of work, the loyalty shown is completely misplaced.

Pity poor Dobes. He worked in his dream job for ten minutes and thinks he now knows what a well ran football club looks like. How could he? Unless Burnley, Sheff Utd etc give him intimate access to their inner workings while he was at safc he’s got no chance of knowing what good looks like.

Even if this happened before the end of today, we would have a massive struggle on our hands this season. Bailey Wright coming in is the only decent thing to have happened since March. We have little time left to get people in and face a salary cap on top of that. All of this leaves us with the worst performing team we've ever had minus the goalkeeper. Long days ahead but hopefully light at the end of the tunnel.

Yup and the Wright/O’Brien signings seem to be funded by the sale of Mumba. We were also hampered in the market last year because we were 1 in 1 out.

Outside of what Donald has said he’s paying back for parachute money he seemingly hasn’t invested a penny into the club, he’s basically loaned himself the money to pay for the club and then relied on it being self funding. Got to be really concerned for us going into new season and who else we might lose to fund a signing if Donald is in charge. Likes of Willis and Gooch are saleable going into final year.

Wishful thinking but it could be canny if 2 rival groups of billionaires joined up to own SAFC...
