This is what I’ve thought is going on, and also heard from a few people.
They were 100% wanting to buy the club, but something scared them off during due diligence. (Not the fan group statements, as some Donald apologists keep spinning!)
They have probably decided to play the longer game, and now have Donald over a barrel, ready to take the club for far less.
Obviously anything could change depending on if the loan is paid back.

It's the only scenario that makes any sense. I've still not seen any other explanation for the loan which for them is relatively small fry.

Sure, the 'fans' group's negativity, nastiness and lack of democracy would certainly appeal to any prospective owner.

I’d say in my world no one gives a fuck or even listens to a bite of notice any of those fans groups/fanzines or what they come out with.
So why grown men who are multi-billionaires would even take a bite of notice really doesn’t register with me.

Please understand mate the RAWA and whoever put a lot of folks off as they suggested the spoke for everyone, when they did not.
if your lot were to say to SD and CM look we might have been a bit abrupt and we may be wrong can we talk around the table, it might just heal the bad feeling, and encourage other folks looking at us to see we are together.
just a suggestion

Howld on a minute. These owners brought this on. They were the ones wanting to be open and honest whilst talking shite and contradiction after contradiction. Any bad feeling lies squarely at their feet.

Ffs I’m getting my hopes up again, I’m normally massively wrong so I’m going to pour cold water on it and it’s nailed on to happen

you have a very good HP.
BUT its more to do with who might come in over the next few weeks

It's almost 3 weeks since you said there'd be changes and potentially 'jaw dropping appointments' 'in the 'next few weeks'. From the fact you've said 'the next few weeks' again now I assume means you're just guessing on any time frame.

Edit: May have only been a couple weeks ago actually.

I’m not the quickest on the uptake but it seems everyone involved is playing a bit of a power game at the minute I honestly can’t see how SD will be able to soak up the imminent economic clusterfuck and will surely be looking at damage limitation

nah we had one incoming or did you miss that, and others to follow, but if your sensible to get summit done over the table, face to face, it is hard at this time.
I am not in control of time tho, so don't shoot the messenger

I am extremely disappointed that RAWA did not engage with its members over such a crucial issue and I think that you should take some personal responsibility for not consulting the SMB members that your represent.

If the above had happened, I might not have agreed with any outcome but I wouldn't have an axe to grind.

I've been to one branch meeting in my life to pay my subs - sorry that I can't help in your attack against the branches.
