southportdc Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 29 minutes ago, matthefish2002 said: Think a lot of the ground work for the youth set up was done before Chansiri time. Think Chansiri deserves some praise for the youth set up but not all of it. Not knocking the new pitch, its is superb but surely anyone could have recommended this being done at the time. For upwards of £40 a ticket I think having a good pitch should be a given. The scoreboard is better then the old one but similar size clubs then Wednesday have had one for 10 years of more before. For most of the time it flashes up 'CHANSIRI' or 'D TAXIS'. Just because other clubs had nice screens and pitches before us, doesn't mean it cost Chansiri less to do ours.

The longer this goes on with what is a seeming impasse...Nobody seems to know what Mr chansiri is doing, whether theres a plan, whether he's just decided the hassle isn't worth it. Maybe he's looking for a buyer, maybe he's going to simply pull the plug.He pulls the plug and we are back to the period pre Mandaric aren't we... Makes you wonder where we would be if it had gone the whole hog then, Would we be in a worse position than we are now? Who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows Often thought this. Wondered if we might not have been better off going under. Like plenty of other clubs have. Or cheating as it's more commonly known. Because they never really go do they. Still...we've had the moral high ground on those clubs which has kept me going these cold winter days of the last years!

BRUCE LEE Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 There is no conspiracy You’d assume KM was brought in to manage the club whilst it financially operates on a day to day basis at its bare minimum, in its current state As an outsider looking in, it would suggest we’re for sale and in the staggering phase of waiting for the right level of interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austrian entrepreneur Dietrich Mateschitz and Thai businessman Chaleo Yoovidhya both hold 49% the remaining 2% by Chaleo Yoovidhya's son. No idea if there is any connection to the Chansiris.

For most of the time it flashes up 'CHANSIRI' or 'D TAXIS'. The price of the pitch was knocked off the price he paid for the club so basically it was part of the deal. Have you seen how much it is to advertising on the scored board £3,000 a season for 2 x 15 seconds per game so if this is only match time and not the whole afternoon from say 1.30pm to 5pm. thats an estimated £540,000 in sponsorship just for the scoreboard (if they can find anyone stupid enough to pay it that is) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, that's not very current. Chaleo Yoovidhya is dead now. Same family still owns the shares though. Edited December 3, 2018 by OxonOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are sitting back waiting for these changes then the decision making process at the top is worse than we ever could imagine. There have already been unforseen changes in EFL's implementation of FFP rules that have affected us negatively. There still could be "political" decisions taken that affect us either positively or negatively in the very short-term. An example is the 39m limit being raised based on cost changes since it was set and recent pressure from EFL clubs in a few areas re. this issue.
