nevthelodgemoorowl Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 What I would suggest is that an honest broker compares and contrasts the pro's and cons of what have been our only owners. It is my belief that the first 2+ years under Chansiri was like stepping onto a different planet in football terms far in excess of what Manderic managed to put on the pitch. Mistakes were made by both our owners, but what matters to me is not a wrangle about what we have or have had but the overarching concern which is that of Wednesday. Some on here not many are suggesting Chansiri should go ? What's that about how is it going to happen ? We don't have a Mammadov figure waiting in the wings 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwë Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The video is genuine, but I still don't understand why people believe the EFL should have the powers of Mystic Meg and be able to foresee bets placed in the Philippines affecting the administration of a football club in England.

That is right mate and a big issue but was that comment about Parry regarding fit and proper person test for owners. Regarding the money in football it's got way out of hand totally agreed.

Not just Wigan, Bolton, Bury also had ownership issues this season. If the EFL approving foreign owners, need to have a wider reach, not excusable to cite geography as a reason for not doing adequate due diligence.
