Press Conference

[Botchie]

That gives them an incentive to keep up the instalments

So if they don't pay he takes them? What if the money is spent?

 

[RichD]

Can someone fill me in with what’s been said please as at work and missed it

The Don has kicked fuck out of Rodwell & Bain and windmilled Short after buying the club for 40 magic beans...

Jock Radwell

Other than that, sounds very good. Delighted the deal is done.

 

[freckletooth]

I've got no speakers on me works computer so i can't hear a word either of them are saying. What i can tell you however is that i dont believe a f***ing word either of them are saying.

Thats the spirit

 

[The Rat]

got the impression some big decisions coming soon, maybe not even all 100% popular as they said they might need explaining to fans

all for change like, go for it lads

 

[Bears Beets]

I think people forget we are a league one club now, if we spend £5-10 million we’ll go up and build from there.

 

[molthemackem]

And not a sign of Martin Bain....CEO, in sight. Telling for me.

 

[Roger]

Uh oh, he talked about answering fans questions on forums.

He might not last long!

 

[Lordofthedepths]

There is other investors, but because of time restraints and a need to get the deal done quickly, they are not currently on board officially. Did anyone actually listen to it?

 

[Mackem Tommy]

Bloody hell people twisting FFS. He's just said we'll have the biggest budget in the league, even more so than last years promoted sides. Also sounds like they will be other investors but it was more important to get the takeover done quickly so we can get to work this summer and get out this league as first attempt. Very exciting and compares to how the future looked 6 weeks ago, beyond belief people can be disappointed.

This.

Can't understand why people are so worried that we don't have a billionaire backer in League One

What exactly could a billionaire do in League One that a millionaire can't?

If you listen carefully you’ll hear your stock going down.

 

[Safc88]

What did last years promoted teams spend?

You best close this board down!

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

Imagine we actually have quite a poor owner by football standards tbh. Getting out of League One shouldn't be an issue, getting out of a Championship will be. But sensible decisions on and off the pitch has seen "poor" teams promoted many times in the past.

Probably the same wealth bracket as Burnley's owners. Run a football club as a proper business and you end up not spending your own wealth.

 

[Hawyatt Earp]

Honesty. Can’t knock it.

Like the sound of Methven too, times are changing at the club, some of it will be tough to take no doubt but we’ll come out of it eventually better than we ever were with Ellis Short.

 

[Botchie]

One season at a time I say. Very few football clubs have 5 year plans. I'd rather he didn't sit there and promise top 7 of the Premier League.

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

how much are the parachute payments worth??

£38m this season and £21m next.

The ban hammer needs warming up fella!
