He will EASILY have spent more than half of it. £60m on stadium £30m (?) to buy the club £7m on Jordan Rhodes £5m on Adam Reach That's £100m without even thinking and paying 6 years of wages and other transfer fees!

morganowl Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 he has spent 350million? really ? well if so why has he had to take a loan out on the ground? . he spent appx 60million to buy the club then you can add losses for seasons he has been here of 20-25million . at the very most still a huge amount of money id say 200million at the tops ,most of that has been completely wasted and the club is far far worse off than before he arrived. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 What he’s spent is now irrelevant. The fact he will want £351m to sell the club is the major issue. Very well intentioned, but the club needs a change of direction at the very top. And quick. Most businesses are reflective of their senior leadership, and unfortunately ours is a great example of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 350 million to have us in a disastrously worse position than we were when he took over. That is criminal incompetence in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Man, that has to be the biggest L anyone has taken in history £350m spent and this crop of poo to show for it? Wowza No wonder he’s barely in contact with the club, I’d be too embarrassed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manwë Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 £350m and the brightest brain in football = 23rd in division two. I worked out that for £350m you could have five high class hookers a night for 60 years, including the coke. We've ended up with Rhodes and Pelupessy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mcguigan Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Well the four set of accounts covering DC’s ownership show losses of around £70m will he will have had to cover. 18/19 will probably be another £30m losses, 19/20 £25m maybe more because of COVID. So were up to £125m just to cover losses. Add the purchase of the club, refurbs, trading ground improvements and court cases and I bet he’s not far off £200m invested.
