Caution my friend

People going mental about this but I’m canny cautious.

Everyone sees dells billions and starts celebrating as if it’s ours but it’s his private investment firm not him directly. He’s looking to make a profitable business but I can’t see him whacking a bunch of money in like mansour did with his plaything. It’s an investment firm looking to protect and grow his money.

This sounds like I’m complaining but I’m not. Just trying (probably badly) to make the point that all these people jumping about posting Breaking bad and Shane McMahon gifs might want to reign it in.

Biggest issue for me is it’s another bunch of owners who have no footballing experience and most likely don’t understand football. Even if I’m wrong with the above paragraph and dell threw a billion at it, if they make the same mistakes as short we’ll go nowhere.

The thing that made the Campbell takeover attractive on paper was the inclusion of John park. The people coming in absolutely must make the right footballing appointments.

God supporting this club has made me a pessimist :lol:
 
"i'm a socialist but ha'way wall street, I support the miners but ha'way wall street"

I had to accept a long time ago that football in the UK will never be a working class concern ever again.

I can either see SAFC succeed on capitalist terms or stop caring.

It's almost like we should be falling over ourselves to be grateful to the current owners.

Well it's all down to Charlie this one apparently so yes we should, the current owners (if this comes off!) Have done everything they said they would bar get us promoted and that isn't something they have direct control of, I know the moaners are now desperate for something negative but I really think credit should be given when due.

"MSD Capital has several investment teams who make concentrated and opportunistic investments with a focus on mispriced opportunities based on a deep understanding of each investment's earnings potential over time.
A core feature of each team is to use the flexible and longer term nature of its capital base to find investment opportunities which fewer competitors can feasibly pursue.
Each team seeks out opportunities where it can develop a deep understanding of the future cash flows,understand and quantify the risks and acquire at valuations below the intrinsic value."

It seems as though we may fit the criteria admirably.

Basically what Mike Ashley does/has done in terms of a buisness plan.
