SAFC Takeover Latest

[chunksafc]

Absolutely, also it is reasonable to expect some type of return without a crippling wage bill in the meantime.

If done well, it would have the best opportunity of making its money back as opposed to paying people more than they are worth to "help" us.

I have said since the first rumours, if they come in and put money into youth, scouting, coaching and the medical side. I will be a happy man.

Buying instant success is great short term but building for long term must be the aim

 

[Coeus]

Just what’s needed , another takeover thread

The whole set up needs a shake up - scouting , recruitment , coaching

Doesn’t need crazy money throwing at it but more than SD can provide

I thought it would be best to take a sideline from rumours to create a think tank with some of the most learned football fans in the world to come together and strategise in a bid to help out our friends from across the pond.

Spot on Marra.

Absolutely fuck all has changed.

Correct - we remain on the verge of incredible investment and many remain in a state of shitting themselves mainly due to a lack of understanding of normal business investment process

It would be nice if they could do both at the same time.

It would but I would be more than happy with long term success over a short term fix

What's long term mate? Our lives aren't infinite. I want to see a quality side asap to be honest.

So do I, but I also want my kids to see it and their kids etc

What do you think the plan will be if and when the takeover is announced?

Obviously, they have got a lot of money but what do you think they intend to do with our club?

A new Man City where billions are invested in playing staff, managerial staff, youth and infrastructure?

A new Red Bull that realise to become exceptional on the pitch, you must first hire exceptional staff?

Aggressive investment to get us to the premier league and then hang on in there?

More of the same?

To rationalise football forums in the attempt to bring about a modicum of harmony to those feeling fragile after reading numerous takeover threads.


(10 Year plan, Premier league within 3 years, established top ten within 6 years, challengers thereafter).

 

[BumbleBee]

I’d like to see some moves being made in management...scouting/recruitment.

If Donald and company are left in charge, that will be a sign we’re not too serious to compete for PL glory. IMO.

Donald's appointments have been cheap.

Wouldn't get your hopes up mate just in case it doesn't happen

Can wait for the first person on here to call them a bunch of wide boys

To do that we need to spend on youth teams, coaching and scouting

It would be nice if they could do both at the same time.

In an ideal world, my preference is that they perfected a precise goal instead of attempting to be a jack of all trades.

Optimisation over inspiration if you will.

 

[SebastienELLISbexter]

You what mate? Moaned this board had become a shit fest - got banned. Came back, saw the same thing and didn't waste my time.

Used to be decent.

Fuck off then, you wont be missed. Sad little bellend. Imagine complaining that your rival football team's messageboard isn't good enough.

 

[Exmoor Hippy]

With Dell being a passive investor rather than on the board it will more than likely make it much easier for us to get round FFP. And these lads will know exactly how to get round it

Exactly this. Can see Dell been a massive sponser. No rules broken but a huge cash pipeline to get us back in the prem.


Also Dell computers all ower Netflix over the next years....as we do a Leicester.

Win win

You heard it here first.

FTM

Alas, my hopes are forever dimmed to the point that I will wait and see.

Effectively we need to buy in a team from a side who are properly run.

We need to avoid creating a "model", and use any potential brass to buy a proven one.

 

[Shieldsman]

Their business portfolio is all about excellence. As already mentioned, they’re not interested in pissing about in Rochdale.

We need to spend as much as possible making our set up the envy of world football. Ignore geography, ignore status. If you want to become a pro footballer and reach the peak of the game come to safc should be our

 

[The Jarra Wanderer]

The thread is a mess, it doesn't show the board in a good light, it's encouraging arguments for no reason

Don’t let it get to you man, just ignore it. I can’t Imagine getting myself in a state over other people with differing views. Will a strong cuddle help, a reach a round perhaps?
