People far too trusting this early. Lets see how it plays out first.

Don’t worry. The ITK’s will be along shortly to say its bollocks and then half this board will wank themselves silly over it.

Isn't it not just man who still owns club speaks to new manager? Although the takeover looks likely to go through, it would be a bit stupid for the current owner to not at least talk to the manager.
Things are confusing, but that was obviously going to be the case given the timing of Parkinson's sacking. What isn't really helpful is people taking one quote and trying to draw out detailed conclusions from it. Just wait and see man.

"Stewart is obviously involved in that, and I've had good conversations with Stewart."

He would if there’s investment and it’s someone else’s money. He doesn’t mind that
Does look like he’s hanging around with input post takeover though

Hopefully “good conversations” means - I’m the current owner I’ve got no money for transfers or player wages, but don’t worry a billionaire is taking over and he’s gonna spend fuck loads.
What d’ya reckon

Oh dear. Johnson obviously hasn't cottoned on that if he is Donald's choice he will be viewed as such - one bulshitter choosing another bulshitter, If he was viewed as KLD's choice he would be afforded a lot more time i.e. a modern coach as part of a forward thinking new structure. Bit a basic error from the lad.

What worries me about this interview is
A. Is this the club leaking bits of info via interviews, I.e Donald will still be a part of things
or
B. As you say, johnson is not as smart as he thinks he is and should not have said this.
neither of these options are particularly good. hopefully if it’s B then there is more to the story (takeover imminent) which he was advised he can’t talk about.

I didn’t know Donald was involved mind, but it doesn’t surprise me with the current % he holds

He is still the owner for now. Until it’s confirmed.
What if the take over fell through and Donald hadn’t even spoke to the new manager.
Maybe I’m clutching at straws here
I honestly believed that Donald was now a "silent shareholder", as has been repeated on here. What a mug.

I just knew when this new phrase “the ownership team” started being banded about that all wasn’t going to be what we’d been led to believe.
Wonder which one of them concocted that little beaut?

You might be right. As others have pointed out, when short was trying to sell he left all of the appointments to Bain and didn’t speak to the likes of Coleman.
