Sale is close - Barnsey

[Nelly The Elephant]

How have you allowed yourself to get into such a state whereby you’re demanding that the Mods lock the thread

Not in a state mate, only come on here now and then these days but 1st thing u see is this thread, nothing new, same people waffling on, it's pointless

800 pages of nothing, MODS need to just lock this thread until there is something concrete from the club

Or just dont read it. Hate all this "lock the thread" shite

Came from the club when donald took over?

Can't remember, to be honest. It may have been in the press a little bit before the club website. Obviously, it's club news, so it will go on there, but any progress is entirely outside the club, especially if, as has been suggested, the deal involves a change of ownership of Madrox.

 

[living in hope]

The difference between us and them lot on the Tyne is that we always laugh off any takeover news and accept it because there's nowt we can do about it

Our outlook is ah well we're gutted it hasn't happened but it is what it is. But they are like oh my god the world has ended let's write to the prime minister and tell him to forget the pandemic just concentrate on getting the behedders in at NUFC

Excuse me, North and West Tyne most of South Tyne are Sunderland fans.

Change ownership of Madrox is a change of ownership of the club...

Change ownership of Madrox is a change of ownership of the club...

But the negotiations are external to it, by definition.

Have a day off man, why is it that you wont recognise the club and Madrox as the same thing?

Because, legally, they aren't. And you're still missing the point. Any negotiations involve the Madrox shareholders, not the company itself. So they are the only ones who know what progress is or isn't being made.

Could be the Storey that weve been waiting for

No sale till they get promoted then maybe someone will make an offer

No sale till they get promoted then maybe someone will make an offer

Not this year mate

Opening soon for closing down sale

The Madrox shareholders are the ones that own the club so any announcement made by "the shareholders" would still technically be coming from the club...

No it wouldn't. It's all to do wit legal personality.

I understand Sunderland AFC owner Stewart Donald has entered a period of exclusivity with a prospective buyer - I believe it's not Mark Campbell or William Storey- with a view to selling before the season starts. Sale could be much sooner #safc

To be fair he did say it should be done before the season starts, so just another fortnight for the ITKs to keep guessing and kicking the can down the road. One of them will be spot on one day, just you wait and see ...!

Well if the entirely pointless and superfluous corporate finance lectures are starting, I'm off to bed.

Just ignore it then. Not hard is it.

No clue if this is true, but he’s been our number 1 target this summer

I honestly couldn't give a flying fuck about legal personality, they are one and the same, if/when Maddox changes owners, then the club will aswell, it's that simple
