Dejphon Chansiri - Sheffield Wednesday Chairman - Thread


Recommended Posts

Guest wilyfox

All very disappointing. It looked dodgy at the time. It's looked dodgy ever since, but I hoped our QC would get us off on a technicality. I don't know how Chansiri can win the fans over now. 3yrs of regression, and likely a relegation battle in the 4th. Facing a big squad rebuild. Attracting good players will be very difficult now.

Love the guy.  He’s a genius. 
 

- Spends millions of his own money 

- Gives us the most entertaining 2 seasons in decades

- Nearly gets us up

- Realises he’s gone a bit mad and broken FFP
- Creates fake companies to pump in cash

- Buys the stadium from himself for £60m

- Knows this is a joke amount but decides to fight the EFL

- Delays everything so long that a points deduction isn’t applied this season, saving us from relegation from the Championship 

- Gets the £60m accepted, clearing the way for more big spending and a full rebuild 

 

He said at the Fans Forum that he had the task of finding a way around FFP. 
 

He’s done that and cleared himself for more spending.  
 

Club hero.  True legend. 
 

LOVE CHANSIRI.

Lee hates Chansiri because he priced his dad out of games.  

Lee loves pointing out the things he hates. 

Lee loves ignoring the best two seasons in Wednesday recent history. 

Lee loves ignoring that Chansiri has spent millions of his own money to try and get us promoted.

 

Wednesday’s issue is that we aren’t commercially viable.  Our fanbase don’t spend money. 

Man City, Newcastle and Leeds are all more viable because of the commercial opportunities from the fanbase.  

We’re a massive club but the pockets of our fans are shallow. 
 

So we get Chansiri. 

Better than many owners (see Wigan, Bury)

Lee wants a millionaire benefactor to deliver results and cheap tickets. 


Where you finding this mystery owner Lee?

He's rolled his sleeves up high without having the necessary muscle definition in his biceps to pull it off.

 

It's a no from me.

Fans have trotted this line out for every single chairman in our history

When Dave Allen was here that line was trotted out

It's a favourite cliche to trot out to try and put fear and doubt into people when there's nothing at all to fear

football is different now.  It’s broken. 
 

To be viable and competitive you need an owner willing to spend or a shady consortia. 
 

Chansiri is much better than most of the owners out there.

Quite - I’m not saying I disagree with a lot of what is said but to do a timeline like this with so many inaccuracies is not helpful.

 


I guess it is a decent starter for 10

I'd not like to see the full thing in all honesty

The brief version is pretty painful enough

To be fair the advice he has been getting has been repeatedly and continually flagged up to him so he's had years to change it and hasn't


Agree mostly but now has he been badly misled by the auditors - who he should be able to rely upon. Some mileage on this yet and we have to see the written verdict but on the face of it the commission have overruled the auditors.

 

Whatever it’s a bloody shambles.

How exactly?


Owners out there bankrupting clubs on purpose allegedly. 
 

Bury, Blackpool. 
 

Owners accused of putting clubs in administration to relegate them for betting purposes. 
 

Wigan. 
 

Owners who are involved in dodgy activities that get their assets seized. 
 

Mammadov. 
 

Dodgy cash that disappears. 
 

Sheard and co. 
 

Consortiums looking for a buck and to sponge off clubs. 
 

Club 9. 
 

Local owners that don’t have the cash to compete. 
 

Dave Allen, Lee Strafford. 
 

Far East Betting Syndacates. 
 

Bryan Robson documentary.
