The thing is, had Methven not been negative towards the fans, I wouldn’t be bothered about him remaining involved. I’m not quite sure how he could possibly mend the relationship other than through his actions. A sorry and it was taken out of context plea simply wouldn’t cut it.

Possibly this odd idea of directors reaching a consensus. You know, the way it used to be done when football was sensible. More seriously, the decisions will be made by the SD, and the only thing the owners will need to agree will be funding, and whether we need a new SD.

Obviously i havnt a clue about this so i may aswell ask 😂
But if sartori had 40% would that mean him and drefus are equal or would it mean madrox have the majority?
 
The thing I don't understand about this toxic fans bollocks, his family owned Marseille. Some of their supports are full on f***ing lunatics, look how they carry on with PSG. Us expecting our players to actually put effort in and our managers to try and win games isn't exactly out of the ordinary.
 
I think we would be screwed if these take over, they are all in bed together hence why Juan and the billionaire kid would win the rights to take over, my own personal thoughts are SAFC would be used as Guinea pigs, feeder club or fed club for the development of players and other clubs. We need investors and investment that solely focus on our club as a whole.

It's shite that's stuck from the rhetoric Bruce went with after he was sacked and its been as easy drum to bang ever since.

Again, would feel more positive if KLD had 50+%

I worry about Sartori having a big stake, AND CM staying on. Smacks of them using this as a way to keep control but give an illusion of change. Suppose that depends on the state of the relationship between JS and CM which we can only speculate about.

This is the key. There seems to be an assumption that they're all big chums in cahoots. It's not something I subscribe to. I think there are major differences in what they see as the way forward. Donald, I think, we can exclude. He just wants at with little or no pain. It's more possible that JS, CM and K L-D are thinking along the same lines. If they're all on board with the SD running the show, that bodes well, and the main problem is exactly how prominent CM will be.

Mate, we’re not even bad compared to the majority of clubs in the UK when you factor in the endless shite we’ve had to put up with. It’s a weak and easy excuse for them, which the NE media that is predominantly made up of mags will happily lap up and continue to stoke.

Structure is everything. At the core, it means there would be no-one with an overall majority, and alliances could shift. Donald will abstain on everything; he simply wants a bot more cash down the line.

Stop it with this shite Grumps. If it’s being reported by national journalists it’s entirely appropriate for Safc fans to be concerned at the ongoing prominent involvement of such a pronounced gobshite and perennial failure.

Why are people sceptical about intentions? Flashback to just over a year ago and the legacy project and regeneration of the entire city.....

SAFC Takeover Latest

I was told members of the PR and Marketing team at the club had been called back from holiday this week, so I'd expected that would mean an announcement today or at the weekend. I think we'd know by now if there was to be a press conference today. I would be canny pissed off if i was called...

im oversimplifying here but it depends if KLD is basically an investor and the shift in shares is for appearances OR if there’s a shift in power away from the original three to JS and KLD as the new powers that be.

time will tell I suppose.

Most of our supporters just want out of this tin pot league. Seeing this is our lowest ever position in our existence it's not really asking for much.
All the while you get news stories about "long suffering arsenal fans" because they havnt won the league in a while. It's a f***ing joke.
Never mind that shower up the road, complaining that Ashley never spends any money, forgetting about Almiron, Joelinton, etc. And no fucker in the press pulling them up about it.

So he didnt paint him as a 'Svengali mastermind' then? Nixon has also said he'll be in an influential role, Prehab has said not to worry as theres also a sporting director. Its not some conspiracy theory, most people are saying he'll have a role in the new set up.
