I think I'm with Emigre on this one, bit of a mixed bag of rumours, this.
Bits that I think have substance: (1) not to be surprised if Dunne leaves (transfers happen, both expected and shock, and clubs will undoubtedly be interested in him). (2) He's not happy about his contract talks being suspended. Well of course he's not happy about that, who would be? Having said that, it's not necessarily a dealbreaker and I also wouldn't be surprised if he stays.
Things that are a bit meh or bollocks: (1) Thaksin hasn't spent any of his own money. Yet. Well someone has sanctioned the signing of quality players on good wages on several-year contracts, and he's also currently tied up trying to get his money back. (2) Most people hate Thaksin because he's a dictator. I doubt many people have even come into contact with Thaksin much since his arrival and, like it or not, he's not here to be soft on everyone and win a popularity contest. If people disagree with his decisions (as many seem to), they'll probably get over it.
True, agree with all of that......hang on, i think this is the first rational post on a thread that contains only chinese whispers, rumours and childlike bickering.
