"The intention behind this Appendix 3 is to protect the image and integrity of The League..." Typical 'EFL', that they place image before integrity.
Anyway I'm all excited now. What's the betting that it happens on Thursday when I'm stuck in a polling station all day!2 -

So, yesterday it was announced that Ellis Short has sold Sunderland. Today we hear that the Two Shats sale could be going ahead. Don't tell me that's what we've been waiting for!4

I belive takeover of Wolves and Portsmouth each took about one week for fitness test and approval. Who knows, maybe that has already been underway and they are awaiting that approval for the final announcement.0

Ooooh it's exciting isn't it0

Interesting that the takeover of Wigan still hasn't happened yet, despite details emerging of an agreement in February1

There was a story on Saturday that four Aussies were in a box. I couldn’t stand it up but Wyn Grant has reported it from another source.

Australians in suits. Maybe. Young Australians in suits. Hmmm.
Young Australians in suits being quiet and discreet. Pushing the stereotype now.2 -
Surely a new owner should prove they are more fit than the previous owner. In that case it should take 5 seconds!2

What, you mean Ellis Short has transferred Sunderland's debt to his new club, i.e. us? That would be very Charlton!Stig said:So, yesterday it was announced that Ellis Short has sold Sunderland.

Fit and proper only takes about a day iirc3

Which in a nutshell is everything that is wrong with it. Think how little was known about RD in the grand scheme of things when he was first linked to the club. Given that he was owner of other clubs also so more information was available than most.kentaddick said:Fit and proper only takes about a day iirc
A thorough test to see if a prospective owner is suitable for a club should take much longer and if it really only lasts for a day or close then that goes some way to explaining why so many clubs are being run in farcical ways

My wife's stepmother is a white Diane Abbott. The resemblance, other than skin tone, is uncanny.0
