Is KLD just a farce?

Not open for further replies.

Why would I tell all Not Charlie?

You already know.
What's the delay in announcing/confirming the new investor?

Feels like it'll be done on the 1st of February and they'll say they couldn't get it over the line in time for transfer window, but maybe that's just the Sunderland in me.
 
It would be handy im sure but the whole point of the strategy is to outperform on intelligence rather than finance.

If we continually have to rely upon investment, we won't go very far.
But further than with kids but they will make nicer profits for owners.

You don't really announce a new investor until they've actually invested

We need the investment now. In two weeks it will be to late for this season.

If we dont go up this season we wont have 25,000 season ticket holders next season unless there is significant investment in the summer.

I have spoken to a couple of solid SAFC supporters recently and a fifth season in Div3 is not appealing when considering swason tickets.

Massive two weeks for the club imho.

I agree with you on all of that.

Was told that the additional investor is waiting, but until they are able to purchase existing shares they obviously remain on the sidelines.

SD and JS have the ball in their court at the moment.

Aye. Dont want to sound like a mag demanding money but the club is at the crossroads...astute investment at this window and we have a real chance. If not we will be in Div 3 next season.
 
Didnt Donald claim he paid 40m?

"Ellis short is enabling us to pay for the club over a period of time. If we had to pay him the full 40 million up front and then have to cover everything in the mean time then not many people would be able to do that. When somebody is owed that sort of money then they need to take some sort of security to cover the eventuality we turn around one day and say we are not going to pay you, and the thing that is most easy to put that security against is the parachute payments. So it's security for Ellis to make sure he does get paid out his 40 million but it's not like he's going to be here and the day the para payment arrives with a big sack over his shoulder. That's not the way it's going to be."
 
The new investor is not a complete secret.
The interview is due next week, i am now sceptical how much will be divulged.

i think you have nailed it on the head here. IF the interview does go ahead and we do find out who has what and when.

Why does everything about this club have to be cloak and dagger. Honestly man, going through the worst time in our history and no sign of it getting any better. Sick to death of empty promises and emptier heads
