Things do change. I won’t say how but I knew that O Shea and Gibson were joining under Bruce and they were. I posted it on here - I was more sure of Gibson than OShea. Then he didn’t. So it isn’t just lies it’s things that happen to change.

The sniping and name calling mind to the likes of mad bob ,Riv,Dennis longhorn etc etc is wrong.

these types of people contribute to the board(s) and generate interest and discussion and their intentions are good no matter how carried away they or us might get At times.That's what it’s all about.

to log on and wait for someone to post to chuck insults at them is a mentality I can’t get my head round.
Grown men aswell man ffs.

There’s sniping directed at all manner of posters, it’s not just exclusive to the ‘ITKs’.

If you come on posting with such an arrogant certainty about something happening that then doesn’t then it’s only to be expected you’ll be pulled up on it.

How anybody can be precious enough to be Bothered by being sniped at by anonymous people is a bigger head scratcher for me.

To say something is a certainty is silly of anyone as all they are getting is 2nd hand info most of the time.Even If it is 1st hand things change quickly in all industries and football more I’d say given its complex nature at times.

I’ll hold my water on my theory for now which I still stand by and had clarification on from a couple of people.
It wasn’t bob who Confirmed my theory and he’s never named names to me on this certain group,others have who I trust.

You do that, but I fear you'll be pissing your pants.

Mr jardine is fully aware of this but he enjoys to see others fail so it excites him in a way that only someone who's really unhappy with themselves would behave.

Unfortunately I think if they were going to buy us they would have done by now. Just my opinion like. I had a quick glance at the other board and I sense a bit of desperation about FPP, I think it’s probably so posters who posted nonsense originally about them can say told you so

I think if they didn't want to buy us they would not have done the loan at all. They've analysed the finances and know that they will get the club this way, at a price they are happier with.

Could be wrong but only scenario that makes sense to me.

My opinion is that the loan gives them some benefits if the club gets promoted without the risk, they were put off the risks of being in the championship and seeing derby and forest lose millions without getting promoted, the risk for them isn't losing money in the prem because they will have ways to increase revenue once we're there, for them the problem is being in the championship.

and yes it is linked to the mags story on the back page in a roundabout way.I thought bob was being cryptic as fuck but obviously not.

I wouldn't wish him on my worst enemy.

He may get you back into the Prem but that'll be it, then you will have to settle for a place above relegation season after season.

I’d grab your hand off for that now. We are years and years away from the premier league, our squad wouldn’t even last a season in championship.
If FPP deemed us that good a deal they’d have snapped us up by now not f***ing about with loans with options.

If our takeover goes ahead it'll highlight the region on a global scale which may attract more interest in yourselves.

There is always that.
The north east is a great place but is constantly ran down by people who barely step foot in the place.
How many time’s I’ve read on here about how rich Arabs would have no interest in coming to north east, nothing here for them etc.
This would hopefully dispel that myth.

Which doesn’t fit in with Mad Bobs claims
Let’s be honest his two pals are embarrassing, they back him up like some cult leader.
I wouldn’t show me face in public If I fanboi’d someone like they do

We had vauxie implying that a potential takeover was backed by fulwell73 the other day - only for madbob to categorically state it wasn’t within about 4 posts:lol:

So the story got pulled in its entirety? Fair enough. Yet @Vauxie and @Gillythedilf both reckoned at the time that the article was there on the Saturday with the content you were talking about? But you're saying it wasn't?

They only applied to delay the filing of the accounts yesterday

if you check they printed a small amount re figures that they already had, no conspiracy here mate.

The worst people for slagging off Sunderland were born and live here in my experience. I was born in Yorkshire and love the North East.
