in french but it appears to say they are part of a consortium who will own 80%. Note both articles were from France quoting 80%. As far as i can see no English journalists have committed to the 60%, other than the journalistic heavyweight that is Matthew Crichton of SBNation.

What does 60 plus 20 equal?

He's failed and will end up making a profit. Whatever you or Donald thinks are the mitigating circumstances the facts are he's failed. Unlike others I dont question his motives. He tried his best and wanted to get us up. But he's failed and to try and re-write his story to suggest he's laid the foundations for our renaissance is blatantly untrue.

The ultimate legacy of his reign will be a host of talent doing great things elsewhere. He's sold off what may have been our 'Golden Generation' - something we'll never find out. The fact that they've been found out has led to us tying down Dan Neil proving that we can keep talent despite squandering 8 or 9 decent youngsters for probably £1.5m. That is what I will always remember Donald's reign for. He probably thought we wouldn't notice but we did. To suggest history will look kindly on him would be a joke if it wasnt so tragic.

Sort of agree. He won't be remembered well, that's for certain. Losing youngster not all down to him, but who will care.
Poor contracts, like Maja, and being in L1 was a factor and not his fault, but academic now.
Onwards and upwards.

FTM

When you have parents coming on here explaining the process around their kid leaving you realise that we have used a load of talented 15/16 year olds to raise funds. We all have opinions but when parents explain exactly what happened you have to take that as fact and accept that Donald has done long term damage.
 
Has there been any more to the rumors that 2 more are joining the consortium?

And what happened with the craic about the bid being with the EFL a while back, was that bollocks or was it this lot?

No he will be the majority shareholder with 60% and JS will be a 20% shareholder. The other 20% between two blokes who will have fuck all say anymore

But what im trying to say is, its getting reported that hes in a consortium for 80%. You laughed it off. You assumed that JS is staying at 20% and rather than concede you might be wrong you just try to act like a smart a*se. I accept i might be wrong and i will therefore wait for further information to make sure. There is nothing to say JS is staying at 20% as far as i can see. Theres no point in continuing this conversation any further.

Not just with altitude. It actually varies directly with changes in atmospheric pressure so could be different from your kettle on consecutive days, its just the changes are so minor you would never notice. Its not a matter of opinion though. Its properties are known for any given atmospheric pressure. Water boils at about 68 degrees C at the top of mount Everest.

WTF has this got to do with a takeover? :lol:

Only on the SMB could you have a physics lesson while trying to find out if we've finally fucked Donald off.

Fair enough. Wasn't aware of that. Not exactly the Dortmund model.
