Guest Hornsby Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 9 hours ago, heppers said: It is a non starter 1) we would never raise enough money to buy the club 2) we would not have enough to run the club 3) it would be a shambles. Votes, committees, power struggles, etc.... You mean like at Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and most other successful clubs abroad. On cost, will be dirt cheap soon as ,so skint, trying to sell Windass for two bob to pay wages. Just like Pompey fans did few years ago to save their club, we will need to rescue Owls. And following a recent in depth analysis of our finances, Podcaster and Statman Peter Lohman has now concluded that a fan share offer is only way forward. And could sign quality players this month. Just like we did with Terry Curran etc after last Owls fan share offer. Lift off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he concluded how to financially fund the inevitable losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, Peter is again tweeting for Chansiri to offer shares to fans for only way forward. Ominously, Nixon tweeting today bigger issues than new manager - either new signings or cash flow probably. Of course, our club was built on fan share offers ---- Originals to get going, A shares to build Hillsborough , debentures to fund new North stand B shares to rescue club and pay for Terry Curran , Mellor et al ......leading to two promotions. All had incentives and the A shares let holder and either an accompanying lady or child have seats in old South Stand. For life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZicoSterland2 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Would be a non starter with Covid restrictions as no money coming in, how would we absorb the costs ? Looks like were stuck with DC short term at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannofan Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Don't know if it's been said many times before , but the last time the fans got what they wanted, we ended up with Jordan Rhodes.

Just what we need , and a Yorkie, will be worth £10 million soon. Let's have a share offer to fans to fund our lift off. With votes and incentives.
