Oxford United fan Stewart Donald: Why I couldn't say no to Sunderland | Witney Gazette

Sounds promising then, said he got us for pretty much what it was going to cost to buy Oxford the ground etc so he got a canny deal.

Definitely sounds as if at some point Sartori will be involved.

Bit of a dig at the Oxford owner there?

 

[SebastienELLISbexter]

VERY positive.

 

[hank evans]

He’s the Juan that we want the Juan we need! Monaco to Marley Potts he’ll not know luxury like it

Love these articles on Donald, Methven etc

Long as it's not misguided

Can't read enough of these positive articles.

Even if this bloke does come on board I do think we will be building a sustainable club not one based on hand outs from the owners, especially for the next 2 or 3 seasons.

Maybe the Union Group will be the next club sponsor?

He would be by now if that interested, surely?
Do they need more people involved in the decision making too?

Did you not see donald saying they had to take over alone to speed the takeover being finalised. He also said their are numerous interested investors to come on board at a later stage.

Donald has already said that it's just him and Methven for now to speed up the takeover process. If they'd brought others on board, the league would have to do their own due diligence on all of them, which would slow things down.

Edit: Bollocks, beaten to it.

Aye now you mention it. Cheers.

No worries ,when you hear his interview it makes a lot of sence.

You just have to enjoy things while they last mate.

Look at Marco ..... sang his name all over the country, idolised him and now most people would move seats if they were sat next to him on a train.

If you miss out on the good bits the bad bits are worse.

 

[Howard the Duck]

Does anyone know more background behind why the last Oxford owner chose to sell to Tiger over Sartori (with Donald involved)? The latter of the two seems the better option to me on the face of it.

He's got an incredible deal, better than winning the lottery!

SAFC lock, stock and barrel for £40m and debt free? If he lives up to his aims and gets us back to the premier league without piling up debt, the club will be very attractive with a net worth to make him potentially a very, very rich man.

He also has the benefit of low supporter expectation at the moment too. It's an amazing opportunity.
