Fair enough. I remember the takeover day and thinking I hadn't heard anything about it previously, but I wasn't in Sunderland at the time so it's possible the speculation just passed me by.
Here’s a thread on it from @Botchie Quite apt in hindsight
also worth noting that the deal was only agreed in principle at the end of April. It didn’t actually get sorted til mid to late may. We knew a lot about this takeover and the people involved before it actually happened

Why would you think that salty
Mate you'll have billy liar cry wanking on twitter about about this being symptomatic of why fuhrman and msd fpp are all wrong for safc / football . Him and his tooth fairy mates will be then sanctified as being club saviours
That pot quoit couldn't even run a carpet shop.

IIRC he was initially approached to be the 'English face' of the Spanish consortium?

Then when he looked into it he either decided to go it alone or was encouraged to by Short?

I'm dragging this purely from memory now but I'm pretty sure kitten mittens and Ton Ton Macou were giving the same updates, then their info split when Donald went off?
@KittenMittens appeared to have a link with the Spanish group and Ton Ton with Donald?
 
Depends on who or what you believe
I suppose, GOM is replying to someone who is stating nothing is coming out, no rumours, nothing. What Magus is stating on the other board is exactly what he has been told. We don't know his source therefore it's just rumours or lies until something happens and his proved right or wrong.
Who is this Magnus gadgie? And why is what he is saying being given so much credence?

Possibly. From his early quotes he was going to be head of a consortium so sounds plausible. He’s than negotiated the infamous parachute deal so he could do it himself. Gutting.

Aye, I'm sure it's been said before that the name Madrox came from MADRid and OXford. Somewhere along the lines the Spanish got fucked off and we were left with just Donald and his mates, mint!
 
Oh steady yourself, folk want to be optimistic, tis human nature.

If you're confident in your own line of thinking then great, you don't need everyone else to conform.

I don't, I just dislike the way people are categorised on here based on what they believe. If people want to say they believe or don't believe, then good for them, that's all. They don't need to convince others, but they should be able to express an opinion.
