Mr Farrell Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Don't believe for one minute DC wants to sell up. No way of recouping the money he's wasted , and to sell at a huge loss is to admit he's massively failed, would kill his ego. His plan is to plough on regardless and get us into the Premier league. The problem is, and what's become obvious to all is, his plan is pretty awful, and he's pretty awful at delivering plans. The result of this is a lottery. He could get us up eventually, or he he could take us out of business and down the divisions. Nobody knows. He could also spit his dummy at any point. At least it's not dull.

But we don't know what will happen with regards that if we are found guilty. Bottom line, so why all the speculation of points deduction, fines, embargo's, player clear out etc. Pointless OP for me.

If he chose to do that, who would buy us... can't think of anybody with local links with that kind of money bearing in mind the new owner would probably have to fund £10m+ yearly losses even if we tighten our belt. So it would be another foreign guy and who's to say they'd be any better. I kind of think that sometimes its the better the devil you know. Chansiri gambled on promotion in the first couple of years and it didn't happen. Over the last 18 months or so he hasn't got much wrong either in the transfer market or with appointing managers so maybe he's learnt. I know there's the stadium sale issue, but that's not through choice it's trying to cover mistakes he'd already made back in 2017. We need to be careful about what we wish for as we aren't going to get promoted without a wealthy benefactor. We've no parachute payments and we don't have young players to sell for big money which is something the pigs, Norwich, Bristol or Brentford have done and that allows you to reinvest in the squad. We won't compete only signing frees and paying out the wages we'd be able to afford so we'd be back to being a lower half championship team with the odd trip to league one in there.

bigthinrob Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 4 hours ago, Mick De Lyons said: It's semantics, but he knows his time is over at the club. I'm sure his plan was to try and get the club into the premiership in his first two seasons and then sell it. It nearly happened, but now it's gone sour and it's just a drain on him. He will sell if he gets a decent price. Not only an expert in hindsight. Can also predict the future. Rare gift!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So...DC has confided in you has he ? Lol The thing that's a joke is your continual slagging off of DC as if you have any idea as how to run a football club. Wishful thinking is about right however, no one GAF about your ramblings. You know how stupid it is when @MrFarrell calls it nonsense 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He bought it to move his finances around and perhaps sell it for a profit if we got to the premiership. You seem to know a lot about what DC is thinking.

unkastav Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 6 hours ago, Mick De Lyons said: It's not certain that we will be found guilty over the selling of the club, but if we are, it's more likely to amount to a deduction of points than a fine. The one salient point about this situation, is that realistically the club can go nowhere whilst it's in this permanent cycle with regards to this financial embargo. If the points deduction happens, then it ends our promotion or play off hopes, but I don't think it will end in relegation, unless is a huge amount of points. So it's going to be likely a mid table finish. In my opinion, this fine or a points deduction needs to happen. It's the only way to get the club out of this mess and will allow the club to operate in the transfer market properly again. Along with this, two other things need to happen. Chansiri needs to sell the club as soon as is possible and the squad needs a complete overhaul. The big earners need to go and the squad needs breaking up. Some players have been here too long and need moving on. I would personally sell or not offer contracts to Westwood, Palmer, Fox, Hutchinson, Pelupessy, Lee, Reach, Forestieri, Nuhiu, Winnall and Rhodes. I do think that one person is to blame for this predicament and that is the Chansiri. He was the person in charge of the finances. He knew the rules or someone was advising him on the rules. He knew what he was spending in transfer fees and wages and he was the person that decided to sell the club to a company that part of his financial portfolio. He may have done these things for the best of intentions, but the current situation is entirely down to him. With the financial embargo still in place and the club currently for sale, plus an aging expensive squad on the books, it could be the right time to take the punishment of a point deduction if we are found guilty of breaking the EFL rules.
