I can't remember who, but I am sure it was mentioned on here that it was the case that someone other than DC was paying the wages and bills.

Why would anyone do this unless it was a secured loan with a high interest rate?  It just isn’t the way things are done.  You are basically keeping a company afloat that isn’t yours- ie madness.

Things are looking up. Not long since some fans were saying admin was a better option.

Anyway, once again, fingers crossed there's a modicum of truth in this. 

Though I heard the same thing many months ago, so maybe the same rumour resurfacing. After S club 7 and Geoff sheard I will keep my excitement under wraps for now

 

It's not beyond the realms of possibility that we are consortiums' preferred choice of championship club but they are waiting to see if we stay up or not.  As we have inched our way above the relegation zone in the last 2 weeks it may have ramped up the interest.

There do seem to be a fair few coincidences cropping up:

- DC had no money, hence dirt cheap Disco and embargo for late tax payment, then suddenly expensive looking Danny and his team of coaches

  and no more hints of money running out

- DC hasn't publicly moaned about not being appreciated since then

- Danny makes out of the blue comments about the facilities after our visit to Ipswich

- People in Sheffield and Ipswich hear same rumour about an American consortium linked to their owners being interested in us.

 

I can convince myself there's something in it!!

 

So can I...

But then I also remember we are Sheffield Wednesday and nothing this good can happen to us 🤣 

 

My guess is we'll be stuck with DC for a while longer

He will want to take the praise for keeping us up and his brilliant choice of Danny.... before he goes

An American consortium in advanced talks! 
 

My source is usually pretty reliable with his info! 
 

Much is based on staying up this season.

 

DC may have been quiet but not behind closed doors! 
 

More details as it unfolds……….

Wishful thinking

I don't understand the rise that some people get from winding up fellow supporters by making up things like this.

 

Weak take.

 

At a minimum, these things always end up being extremely funny.

It's not stating he's sold up, it's stating that it's advanced talks (whether true or not is a different matter)

Sold up, advance talks, I refuse to believe any rumours!

Love how some people are so passionate that nothing is going off, when in all honesty nobody has got a f*cking clue what's going off 😂

 

Some people just need to log off once in a while and go outside.
