They could still both be right as if the exclusivity is with MG group then SD would still be able to discuss certain things with JS and GF as their already have a vested interest in the club.
I may be wrong but I do think he is stringing MG group along to put pressure on GF because I believe his hand was forced when donald said he would sell to the first person that offered the money and I dont think he wanted to miss out

From what I glanced on the other forum it seemed to be implied by someone called Smug in Boots (is that Reiver?) that Fuhrman was offering below Donald's valuation and wouldn't budge. If that's the case and MG's group have agreed a price (presumably therefore at Donald's valuation) then surely Donald's preference would be to sell to MG's group. My head hurts!

Might not have been his exact words but he was quoted rightly or wrongly that he would sell as soon as someone matched his asking price

Don't think he did mind. He has consistently said the deal needs to be right for SAFC. Now, he may or may not be lying when he says that but nevertheless, it's been chineses whispers that he will sell to the first person that rocks up with the cash.

I'm not fussed on who has the most cash mate. I just care about who has the most ability to run a football club in a sustainable and successful way. That could just as easily be someone with Donald's limited wealth in my opinion - though a bit more financial muscle allows for a bit more wriggle room.

As we don't know which of the groups is most competent (except Storey, I'm pretty sure it's not him!) I won't shed too many tears regardless of which we end up with just as long as it sees a change of regime and approach.

To be fair the notes from the recent RAWA meeting with him state "SD said if anyone could provide evidence of credible proof of funds and can pass the EFL Fit and Proper Persons Test, they can buy the club", which pretty much sounds like selling to anyone with money since we all know how stringent the EFL tests are!
 
They only information we need to hear this week or sooner is that Donald has left the Club.. Storey is a plant, that much is obvious to me at least. The other interested groups all seem to have the required capital funding so let them proceed.

Billy fizzy piss antics though bizarre serve a purpose for somebody ... as bluffs goes its looks pretty amateurish

A plant for whom... the club have distanced themselves from him. If this is a methven pr stunt it looks clownish... if this is billy having a breakdown then I feel sorry for him

Some one without the best interests of the Club causing mischief....Let be clear, Who would have entertained Storey when he came out last week. If he walked into any business and said what he has done, they'd ask him to leave.
