A quartet of American businessmen invested £9 million in Sunderland AFC's holding company, Madrox, earlier this month.
Stewart Donald, one of the owners of the club, assures the fans that the only potential downside would be for him and his partners.
Two weeks ago, Sunderland AFC's owners, Stewart Donald, Charlie Methven and Juan Santori, secured an "eight-figure investment" in their holding company Madrox, which ultimately owns the football club.
