Til it fell off.

Or til it fell out

 

[Ale taster]

This news certainly won't put off any potential signings ...

... players will be more inclined to come here, simple as that.

There'll be a few kicking themselves that they didn't as well.

 

[Shandy drinker]

They’re at the match today!!!

Let’s make some noise!!

Nice day for it
Walk along the seafrint
Bacon sarnie at cat and dogs
Fish lot from downeys and walk up to match

 

[Entiae]

Soooooo is it looking likely or what?

 

[Donnybrook]

Some folk could be balls deep in Beyonce and still find something to complain about.

crazy

The amount of people on this thread that do accountancy and global financing for a hobby, or a second occupation is amazing

Why do they call Sunderland ‘chicken town’?

only thing coming to mind is a song from John Cooper Clark

 

[CARLOS CLASS]

Is this actually happening? Just can’t get my head wrapped around the idea of us being bought by a mega rich consortium.

Looks like it. 3 of them at AOL and SOL yday and at the match today. The main stand of the SOL is impressive and the Boardroom awesome (especially Bob’s pear wood tables and chairs)

At least we can dream again

So we think that we’re gonna have massive investment to buy ourselves out of this and the championship, I’m over the moon if that was the case but can’t see it if I’m honest, I think they’ll help but it’ll not be £100m this season, then £100m next etc, it’ll still be business plan and slow progress imho.

Why the fuck would we need 100 million to get out of league one?

Ya talking shite

 

[Confucius]

The Comical, trying to put a negative spin on it is slightly amusing. They should have just typed, “it isn’t MSD Capital, it’s MSD Partners, right. And don’t forget, Dell is just a minority investor, so it has nowt to do with him”.

 

[The Legendary Tongue]

Has MadBob confirmed any of this, I can’t get excited till he does.

So these billionaires were attracted by the passion and dignity of the Sunderland supporters ...

[longers]

If this turns out to be a dream I hope I get to shag Kylie Minogue before I wake up.

They saw us crying on Netflix seems preferable to shop shouters

A well thought out and well reasoned response, so it must be right, I’ve changed my opinion on the back of it.

The sarcasm just makes your original statement even dagger, as it wasn’t a typo!

100m to get out of league one?!!

I will happily take that. If this happens it needs to be done sensibly, buying the right players at the right time on the right contracts to allow steady improvement into the higher leagues and then, more importantly, for it to be sustainable.

However much money comes in, it will still be a long game and we will still need to be patient. Bloody exciting if and when it happens though - cause for real hope - which as we all know - kills you in the end
