AL-FFC Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Sunderland supporters seem to be the same as us on the issue but not as much doom merchants , main gist of it is they wouldnt have had much more financial clout than they have at the moment: https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/mark-campbell.1480632/page-6 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 If this guy IS a conman, it would be quite the acheivement in blowing any previous shows of incompetence into subatomic particles from our board and MSG tbf. It would likely make me yearn for the days of just getting slagged about relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as out there as your chairwoman? Being a lawyer and monumentally fucking up with McKinnon tbf. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In her defence on that one the SPFL rules state that as she was still a practicing/ sitting lawyer she couldnt represent the case 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ditots Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I think we are all old enough to have seen this before. A club gets a rich owner. First few seasons it's all great as his money is poured into the abyss. A little into the future and the owner has had enough of blowing his money and walks away. Leaving the club heavy in debt and the fans need to bail it out (unless your Gretna or Rangers that is). Let's enjoy the ride and pray we still have a club in 10 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just be me but i think with the invention/intro to the internet it just fuels the paranoia and reasons for this lad wanting to invest in us. Another thing is if they want to establish the academy again and build a fourth stand is that new pitch not wasted money. with the fencing etc going round it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big man - nobody trusts the MSG to do the right thing as it may line their pockets. That might be grossly unfair and totally inaccurate, but it's a common perception amongst fans. We have no Bairnstrust or other organised fan body to represent us. That means it falls to BTB, Kenny, David, Keith and patrons like yourself. I'd suggest that you not only meet Mark Campbell, but also contact Sunderland fan s groups to see if there is any truth in these online rumours. Offer to meet some of the new posters on here too, in confidence, if they can provide evidence they think you should see. The fans need to do their own due diligence. Kenny & David have done brilliant work so far, but it may be that their most important task is still ahead of them. Are you guys willing to take up the cudgel on our behalf? I'd speak to stuart donald rather than s bunch of sunderland fans. Hes a pretty open owner and im sure he'd let people know whether they had any serious issues with his consortium. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankthebairn Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 The man sure does love dissolving companies,yeh he’s saying all the right things I.e build stands,youth acedemies and swimming pools,all fantasists do that talk,he gets in for minimal money then the msg are out and he starts stripping the club for all it’s worth.....then dissolves again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot i can get my head round it would cost less for to get us to Premiership and if the idea of buying and selling on players for a more lucrative price take dembele for starts who Park found 450k and sold for 22m but you need to get the club to that platform to see them play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
