Im saying he won’t have been told anything about budgets for Jan.
I meant he was probably told by Fisher or someone else.
Did you sign your name as Duffer by any chance?I wrote well before that was announced as being in place.
Even then, the pending administrator could have replied to that effect without breaking any confidentially.
Lets say all this actually happens, and we own the stadium and wasps dont go bust, would you let Wasps rent the ground from us?
No, they can get fucked.Lets say all this actually happens, and we own the stadium and wasps dont go bust, would you let Wasps rent the ground from us?
If King really said no sales in January he's off his trolley. If Gyokeres wants to go, he'll go. Same for O'Hare.
It's not a coincidence and he said as much.hjs association with the co founder of Sisu just a co-incidence?
Dawkins was squeeling like a pig because he got no response from the administrator and wasn't allowed to forward a bid or even have a conversation. But clearly he doesn't understand what a period of exclusivity means.Dawkins got a reply. It said no but it was a reply.
I suspect it’s proof of funds that would be the issue with taking it seriously.

I'd worry about him being involved if that's the case.
Is that because it’s not in administration yet? They have very specific guidelines to dispose of assets and probably pre administration, have to act on behalf of the bond holders, if no going concern solution found, administration and then it’s open to bidders and then that could be a viable option subject to fans and funding solution.
Ashley has tried to secure a preferred position pre admin so I am not sure anyone else, including the club, can actually bid until that exclusivity period has passed or goes into formal administration

BREAKING: Gyokeres no longer moving to Sunderland
He sounded a bit amateur but at least he's said it's a debt free fresh start. Lost count of how many appeals he made to the bondholders. Going to be another interesting day.
It's also worth pointing out that Ashley secured a period of exclusivity by paying 1.2 million of his own money to keep the Arena operating during the admin process, this enabled CCFC to fulfil the home fixtures amongst other things.Fair play to Dawkins but he’s a rabbit caught in the headlights. A step too far. Good luck to him though.
Thats good banter tbfView attachment 27313

What was he asking the bondholders for? To bloke the MA bid?
I mean this with due respectIn terms of timing, I wrote before Ashley's 'preferred bidder' status had been confirmed.
Don't get me wrong, I'm fairly certain it would never have come off, but the complete lack of response is vaguely interesting.
I'm glad they never came back in many ways, personally I'd never want to be out in the middle of all of this, but it wouldn't have been too hard to get the ball rolling on a crowdfunding site if there had been any serious interest and then take it from there.
It's the sort of thing I'd expect the Trust to have stepped up to in all seriousness, they could claim a lot more credibility than a random bloke like me and maybe gather some proper external support. Too late now either way, we'll soon see what happens I guess.

I didn't see Sisu, Dawkins or king offering such monies (unsecured) upfront!

Curveball - Mike Ashley is The Coventry City to our Real Betis
We only send our shit and our crocks up there.Lord grant me the confidence of a Sunderland fan

He got no guarantee of a purchase.Ashley didn't offer it unsecured.
hjs association with the co founder of Sisu just a co-incidence?
No, but he could have said we don't have to sell players in January couldn't he?In his defence nobody, but nobody can take over the club, and start their first interview by saying yeah yeah yeah, half the playing squad will be off, can they?
It’s the ready made reason why we’ll have to sell Gyokeres for 3m in JanuaryTrying not to be too cynical but to say in the same interview that you're willing to pay £25m cash but also that you've not looked at the books seems a bit off

I mean this with due respectbut a bit like football clubs get countless enquiries from spotty teenagers with Championship Manager experience, I' sure the administrator has a bunch of jokers who enquire over a football club.
I reckon you've been marked in that category
VBut so am I, and I struggle to get people to take me seriously on house purchases, let alone stadium buys!Quite possibly mate, but I'm capable of appearing reasonably professional when it comes to it.
