If it hasn't happened by then, I don't think it will. They would definitely want a relegation clause if that was the case and fatty just wouldn't agree.

As much as I was against this sort of thing at the start, I'd love the flags groups to go a bit anti ashley/pro PCP right about now. Nothing to lose, it's got to happen or we're fucked anyway.

I know Darlow has done a few brain farts in the past...but why has fuckin Elliott been in so long.

and there you have it

I'd go Aarons for Ritchie as well. Just have a go, think Gayle is more likely to benefit from Shelvey would keep him on. Fuck Mitro and Joselu for now.

gayle should be throwing himself at that

not one of the questions that need answered tbf.

what the fuck ha

There's a one from today, basically a rehash with nowt new.

Word was both parties were annoyed by the first bid and details being leaked. I'm guessing (hoping) they're just keeping everything a lot closer to their chest until somethings agreed this time.

This should be fun.

Dodgy channels in seedy bars. Shocking I know. Nice pint though.

Will be watching with a Sunderland supporting mate in the bar for whilst having a pint for another mates birthday. I have NEVER watched a game in a bar with said friend when we have won. Tonight has to be different, we need some positivity.

Buying markets with wallpaper? Shrewd.

The negativity is also coming from what's happening on the pitch. The more games we play the more obvious it is that we need the takeover to happen. If we'd won a couple of games recently people would just be talking about the takeover as an excitement. Plus the press know that keeping the negativity going is good for their sales. Aye, I meant more like Wraith and Martin who were very upbeat about it, until now. It's expected from the general press.

"Mike knows what he said...hopefully he can keep his word." It's like the summer all over again. I think yesterdays press conference was a bit more full on than the summer mind, he was visibly raging. I didn't like it, as it definitely seemed like something had changed and he wasn't happy about it.

It's quite obviously bullshit like. Nee other cunt is/was interested. It's PCP or nowt. Just hope all this negativity is just down to lack of concrete news. Is there actually anything credible come out in the past few days as to why all these people are suddenly in a pit of despair?

He seemed fuckin raging i thought Not good.

Rafa's gloves are off by the looks of it. Gentle reminder to Ashley that if it doesn't get sold, he HAS to put his hand in his pocket.

Haven't read anything on this all weekend (didn't expect to miss much tbh) then coming on here in hope of a bit positivity...no such luck We need this badly.

I doubt Talksport will be the ones to do it mind. My money's on the Daily Star.

Pretty sure Mitro's on fire was before Will Griggs.

Exactly. Ashley's not in the driving seat this time. Either he eventually agrees to their terms (which imo will never included an SD advertising deal), or takes the club off the market, which will be an even bigger loss for him.
