If our takeover goes through will "north east reporter" (Chortle) George caulkin write something like this, about us

·


is an expression of who we are. It is Saturday night after St James’ Park. It is being lost in drink, a soft hiss of depressurisation. It is relief & jubilation. It is toasting our friends, family, heroes, club. It is the end of something - a party 13 years in the making.

f***ing arse licking spanner
That quotes something else like.. if that's f***ing journalism
 

I fervently and sincerely hope MSD tell them to do one.
Mate you'll have billy liar cry wanking on twitter about about this being symptomatic of why fuhrman and msd fpp are all wrong for safc / football . Him and his tooth fairy mates will be then sanctified as being club saviours
 
Nothing coming out will be down to NDA's in place. You would assume lessons have been learned since last year with regards to 'leaking info', as he ended up with a dozen eggs on his face. He's made clear he wants to go, so i'm not quite sure what he would gain from lying about a takeover.
Apart from nobody is now talking about the shitshow that is our FC anywhere as near as much as they were a month ago or blaming Donald, actually a very good PR stunt, who does PR again ummm !!
 
Which would be fine but the same people are also supposedly telling Magnus and Smug they can post it on messageboards. The two things dont stack up for me. You cant be completely watertight and prevent anything leaking to press but also be so loose-lipped that you'll encourage people to post exact details of how shares are going to be distributed on an internet messageboard
Depends on who or what you believe
I suppose, GOM is replying to someone who is stating nothing is coming out, no rumours, nothing. What Magus is stating on the other board is exactly what he has been told. We don't know his source therefore it's just rumours or lies until something happens and his proved right or wrong.
 
Everything you say makes perfect sense, however, my worry is the opposite - nothing is happening and SD is using this NDA/Exclusivity rumour to sit back and wait, he's not getting any grief because a lot of fans think he's in negotiations, we get off to a good start and he hangs around hoping for promotion and his big pay day.

Thing is, I don't think he really needed to take the pressure off. He's sat in Oxford, seemingly with very little intention of coming back to Sunderland unless absolutely required. There's no matches for people to shout about him at, and even when the season starts there won't be any fans initially, and he probably won't be there. No one expected him to spend money so he's not even using it as an excuse not to spend, and the fact is he needs to go up just as much as we want us to, so there's no need for a misdirection which means he can be inactive in the market. It doesn't make sense that Donald has just made it up. Which means that, given Barnes said something was happening and said he still thought so when he did the podcast a week or so ago, I'm confident that something is happening

I truly hope so...but no news/leaks in the media is unusual if something is happening, other than of course the Rasputin Bampot making a noise!
