How much did your mate pay for his original 6% ummmmm.
As we all hope we do get stronger, it will have nothing to do with that mob, that is for certain, cretins.
Who was it that was going to sell Dan Neil for next to nought to Leeds.
Also you tell your mate and the Chancers to stop meddling with KLD.

I really don’t think it is. They got literally every football decision wrong - often horribly so. They took over in a perfectly manageable situation that should have been our lowest ebb. They somehow made it worse. The Donald regime - with contributions from absolute no-hopers like coton and hill - was the most inept, most error prone, most wrong-headed administration that Sunderland have ever had. Given some of the competition that they’re up against, that’s pretty remarkable.

But how much of the club does Donald own? Surely you know that if the terrible trio own 49% then it restricts investment from kld.

That’s exactly what’s happening apparently. KLD not been at many games recently either

Before he was married he’d been missing a few games. I don’t blame him, if I was a billionaire I wouldn’t be spending weekends in Sunderland. But there are rumours he’s not spending cos Donald and co aren’t putting their fair share into the club. Something will have to give and I don’t think Donald is going anywhere

They proved to be well out of their depth, particularly in understanding what investment was needed to get us promoted, but it was the previous administration that got us into the huge mess they inherited.... an owner who got bored with his little side project and presided over a catastrophic decline whilst continuing to clock up eye-watering losses.

I understand the sick they get. What I don't understand is why we - as fans - were so passive by comparison when it came to Short, who, to my mind, is the real villain of the piece.

I'd say it might be a clash of egos (mainly from Ashley), but he's a far better owner than almost all the ones we've had.

Yes, because he's definitely the only one of the two known to let his ego get in the way. :lol:

The fans would love to move on. Someone (or some people) won't allow them to be continuing to have a public presence.
