It will all hang on this consortium owning Hillsborough outright. You'll probably find they will want to change current operations very quickly as our lot did at Portman Road.

Oh well, was a nice idea whilst it lasted... 5 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll want top-class facilities. Thats exactly what is needed if anyone ever comes in here. It might not have mattered had we gone up in the 2015-2018 period but in hindsight if even a fraction of the 200m invested in the club had gone on facilities and analysis et al, we’d be much stronger and “ready” now 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody gave us a chance in hell so unless this consortium have just decided to buy an english club and if we stay up ours fits their brief more than others. We'll see. Still think we'll prob end up being bought by another mad man. For the sort of money Chansiri would accept it’s understandable that any interested party would prefer us to be in the Championship. However I do acknowledge that if we end up in League 1 then the club is a lower prospect and should cost a great deal less. Note I did say ‘should’ as we all know Chansiri would still want megabucks. You never know but ones thing for sure I think we are in for an interesting Summer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post striker Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 I desperately hope this is true. We have a fantastic opportunity with Röhl, the only problem is the shadow being cast by Chansiri. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogbad Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I sincerely hope this is true but I hope it doesn't impinge on Danny's squad rebuild this summer, which theoretically starts in less than 2 weeks. Takeovers can take some time to complete and I can't see DC ploughing money in if he's selling up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll give Röhl a bigger budget than most League One teams have and he'll be tasked with ensuring promotion in three seasons. They then focus on the off-field stuff and improving it.

Popular Post royalowlisback Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 Imagine if you can - we win at the weekend, other results go our way and we have a relativity comfortable away fixture at Sunderland to ensure safety - which we win with ease. At the end of the game, DC announces he is off, the Consortium take over with immediate effect, announce a board of directors, new training facilities, upgrades to the ground and a nice big fat wedge of cash to spend (sensibly). DR is given a new and improved long term contract and we get the trestle tables out and sign up for Bruce Lee's w4nkathon. Or. We lose at the weekend, then only draw at Sunderland after Fletcher misses a 100th minute penalty, we are relegated, the 'takeover' is off, DR resigns and DC gives it both barrels with one of his 'speeches'. Which one do you think is the most likely? 4 1 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Southie_Owl Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 You know what’s going to happen the day after we get relegated.. Chansiri “I had agreed a takeover that would have brought in 1 billion dollars but the fans negative attitude caused us to be relegated and they have withdrawn their interest. Now fans pay me £2 million so I can have a summer holiday”. 2 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
