Bravo 2 zero of the herb gardenThat one didn't go over your head did it![]()
You must be blind and know little about how a capable, professional journalist would act, never mind one who purports to be a Sunderland fan.
I would suggest it might not... this is imho a grift of some kind... and although it looks like it's falling apart quicker than Simon greysons defence, it could merely be replaced by something else. These clueless fuckers are desperate enough to wheel out two other equally clueless fuckers as bonefide buyers ...when in fact the are skinter than most of usMate, half of Oxford will have been “in the boardroom” on match days. This is all getting out of hand now. But hopefully it’ll all end as quickly as it appeared
The term in the boardroom implies an board meeting not just an informal collection of board members and their friends!
Is it nothing to do with his trust fund? He’s not got as much money (yet) as we think.
I’m still struggling to get my head around KLD expecting someone to spend decent money on shares to have no control at all. I thought it was a shoe in that it would be a family member.
Not sure why Tom White is peddling the line the TFT offer is with the EFL at the moment, because it’s not even close to that stage.
There’s two offers on the table, neither has exclusivity, as confirmed by Charlie Methven. It’s all very odd.
Probably to save face .. they look absolutely toilet, and their capacity to pull this of looks like disintegrating through simple researchNot sure why Tom White is peddling the line the TFT offer is with the EFL at the moment, because it’s not even close to that stage.

It defies human behavior though doesn't it?your a group wanting to buy shares in the club and your not introduced to the chairman...your kld and donald brings in some unknown guests and your not interested (given the recent circumstances)I it defies human behavior!This is before a match. Boardroom in this context means use of that room and adjacent areas for entertainment of opponents and invited guests of both directors and shareholders, plus corporates from the Riverside Brasserie. Looking at the area on the stadium map, it looks like the directors box (a misnomer if ever there was) seats about 250 people when full. People could be in there and KLD not even know.
He does not come into his full amount of money till he is 25, this DecemberPossibly, but you'd think if he couldn't afford the shares, he'd be a lot more welcoming to any other investors and to potentially selling his own stake. They're clearly asking for a lot for the shares, but in comparison to what it might take to get us challenging at the top of the Championship, it's probably not a lot.
Him saying that he's insistent on keeping control has to have scared some potential investors off. I'm just guessing like.

He has been a journalist with Sky Sports prior to becoming a Sky Sports News Presenter.A he’s nots a journalist he’s a tv presenter, 2 massive differences people always get confused.
B He is a massive Sunderland fan, o hope you have done as much helping out the safc foundation as he has aswell, and I’ve seen him rock up at Rochdale as wel as other places, you don’t go to Rochdale from London if you aren’t a fan!
I do wish Tom had just left this one well
alone though and passed it onto a non safc supporting colleague.
Really worried that these two fucktards can pull a stunt get thru. You have wonder how robust the efl checks areThere's loads of shifty people buying clubs with little finances etc or failed business in the past. Some fail like potentially Derby's new owner, others go through. Donald for example allegedly shown 50mil to efl to complete the purchase and does he fuck have 50mil. Also depends if they are being backed by someone who believes in this type of shit. I don't think they do, and find it unbelievable that they could purchase the shares but after Donald/Methven or Derby etc I am always wary about the EFLs checks.
Either way, none of the blame goes to Tom. He is reporting what he sees. He could have dug a bit deeper but he is certainly not at fault.Clearly someone or , more likely ,everyone involved in this is not telling the full story .
The athletic basically scrapped itAccording to Tom White and the Athletic it is.
