I won’t be holding my breath. This. I hope beyond hope I'm 100% wrong. I want Chansiri to make me eat the largest slice of humble pie ever in the history of man. However if the only argument to not wanting him out is it could be worse, then that doesn't stack up. It couldn't have gone worse in his tenure here. If he was a fan he would sell up at this opportunity to a fans group or other investors who know how to run a sustainable business. Even with zero income then I believe there's posters on here who could run the club better, particularly with the number of out of contract players we have. Sadly I think he has no intention of leaving and this is the beginning of the slide down the leagues. Even with money he is incapable of running a football club, without it I fear there won't be one for much longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malek Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Perfect example of delusion. He buys club in league above and better squad for 35m, wastes 200m of his own money on nothing (could have burned it as well) and thinks that now club is worth 160m ?! Just can't understand his logic... Poor fella needs some serious help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hornsby Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Transfermarket.com had value at £30 million last week. Erik bid same. Message is, this is my kids toy and we only sell at a daft price. Refunds all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toppOwl Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 So for your £160m you get: A threadbare playing squad (some of whom are on too much money) A ground that you have to pay rent on that is in need of repairs and a new boiler A shop that doesn’t sell anything worth buying A poor website An inadequate training ground A disenfranchised fan base some of whom the club owes money to No sponsors Virtually no outside income L1 status The buyer may also need an actual structure and method of running a football club to make it work BARGAIN!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pussface Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 £160 million? I think the real price in a few months will end up being £1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t be holding my breath. Sorry fella I'm genuinely not the type. We all want what's best for Wednesday, we just disagree on what's the best course of action to obtain it. By contrast, I would be delighted to hold my hands up and admit I was wrong if a new owner dragged us back to the Prem, trouble is, the way things are at the club, I just don't see that happening. We can argue until we are blue in the face the reasons behind what has happened but that won't fix it. We need to regroup, circle the wagons and go again, which I believe we will.

NobbyStyle Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) Inexperienced people have never really bothered me, they’re usually open to advice. It’s the ones that think they know what they’re doing that scare me. This over-valuation is his way of sticking two fingers up to everyone who wants him out. Basically “this is what I want otherwise I’m the owner until I say I’m not” He thinks he knows what he’s doing. Very scary.

What a bargain . Joking aside, you would think that would include Hillsborough. Looks to be trying to recoup what's been put in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGaffer Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 How much did Milan pay for us? £1 including a deal with uncle Dave that if we got promoted he would receive a couple of million? Can anyone point out to me why we would be worth anything more than that now? Same league, less playing staff in contract, no ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn t that last Summer? And one before? Am guessing you are one of those paid by club posters that Lee Stafford talked about recently? But £10 a seat would be best correction to start.
