Riv is saying its way to far down the line for it not to happen. I would believe him who has already got details right over a bloke who got a text that even he thinks might be bullshit

Add to that a local journalist who is known for loving pissing on our chips said last night its still on track

People seem f***ing desperate to jump on the negative side of anything to do with this takeover (what a f***ing massive shock)

Of course it may not be true but its just what a few people have been told

Hope to fuck it isnt true

Hardly desperate to be negative. Hope more than out it goes through

I've mentioned his name twice in this thread and the last that both are basically dominated by him.

Why is it that I can't mention him and what do I have to let go?

I don't even know why I'm replying given I think you're smart enough to know exactly what you doing but now playing the "I don't know what you mean"' card :rolleyes:

For the last week or so you've kept repeating this but "they did it so why can't it be the other way" in one form or another. I think the 'problem' is that you're confusing select posters being pulled up for the constant trolling in the past with the 'abuse' you think is going on now the other way! ;)

I'm all for this, but i am curious as to what exactly Riveir has got right about this deal so far?

That is a genuine question also, not trying to have a go?

At the end of the day though, what does he kna? Way too far down the line is when the ink's drying and no sooner. So he's worked for a fella who might know someone looking at the club, so what.

I'm sorry, were not on the same page and I'm not sure what you mean.

For the last week I have droned on about people being abusive yea, I'm beginning to bore myself so god knows how it looks to others I admit.

It is my opinion that a group of people behave in a completely contradictive manner and it is not being helped by those that should know better. Were all Sunderland fans and I don't see the point in acting in such a divisive manner. It seems sad in a way.

For the umpteenth time man, as has been pointed out by those with experience of this sort of thing, there's no set timetable for this sort of deal.

Stewart Donald's comments following the Consett talk in were clearly just a holding statement and it's ridiculous to start a countdown based upon his understandably vague assurances.

The problem is that people's expectations have been raised by comments and speculation from certain individuals with apparent inside information.

Similarly all it takes is one unattributed message of doom and gloom to send some on here into a meltdown.

Until there's an official announcement from the club, from my 15 year's experience of this board and its members, the sensible approach is to assume nobody knows anything.

Apropos nowt much at all, this is a nightmare scenario for alleged ITKs, so stand by for panic fuelled over reach.

I'd say people do get to know shit though albeit that it may be just gossip, snippets of info or whatever. I think the huge majority on here would prefer to hear what it is and possibly discuss it with people. The problem is that it doesn't always happen or some jump on it straight away without anything more than their opinion of they don't believe it so everyone else should have the same opinion.

It's not just certain individuals who've shared whatever inside information they have as I think the likes of ALS, Roker Report, BBC, various other sources have also added to the frenzy. The problem is that on here it's obviously directed towards certain posters rather than external sources and some clearly thrive on this! :lol::lol: Obviously very few took that "some ex player told my mate it's off" seriously last night though some did and jumped on the negative straight away but it's to be expected.

This is what it's like now for me every morning as it's the same shit, different day :lol:

I've asked the same question a few times and no one can tell me. The thread have been that busy I think I've missed loads. Any one help?

He got the name of those involved correct although that had already been published. The rest of the stuff to my knowledge has not come to fruition, that doesn't mean it is incorrect, possibly misinterpreted or yet to happen. I think it was interesting stuff and folk enjoyed it so him not being here is a miss.
