The Irish legend was greeted by delighted supporters at the Stadium of Light today, prior to the arranged press conference in which he revealed the ins and outs of his takeover bid.The offer will be 117 pence for each Sunderland share, valuing the club at approximately £10m.
Quinn had this to say: "I am personally delighted, on behalf of my consortium company Drumaville, to be in a position to present this offer to the shareholders of SAFC. We believe this heralds a new beginning for Sunderland, but it's only going to happen if everyone comes together in a joint effort.
"My consortium are buying into the wonderful potential at the club and wish to help enable it to regain the status it truly deserves."
