There is a sense that this money will buy our way to Europe.

If we do throw money at it, does this mean we will go back to paying big money to players who don’t give a shit for the club.
We need to get out of this league first within the Financial Fair Play.

I’m glad of the investment but keep to the plan that SD and CM have devised and not get carried away as being big time Charlie’s.

Think that comes down to the execution, so a combination of the manager, scouting team and owner, and of course whatever philosophy they decide to adopt going forward. Hard to tell at this early stage what we'd go for

Not sure what’s happened to you mate, you never used to be “this” negative :lol: Always been a decent poster too

Come on mate, shake off the negativity and believe. Come on the journey with us all even if it does fail in the end. Most things do with time ;)
 
Why would Dell be involved if he wasn't going to hoy some money in the transfer kitty???

You'd think they'll have a plan to get back to the Prem ASAP.
 
It's not about the money for me, we've already had a billionaire owner who pissed away millions and look where we ended up. It's all about the strategy, that's what I want to see - a winning philosophy going right through the club. One thing we need to sort is how we recruit players as we're currently still all over the place. If I was them I'd forget about the big money signings and instead target the best young players in the lower leagues, players who could grow with the club. For one thing, they cost less money and secondly you get the chance to mould a team over a period of time that could end up competing in the Premier League. At that point you then spend some money on quality additions. Bournemouth did it (their whole back four, until recently when they bought Ake, were with them from League One to Premier League), Southampton did it (the likes of Fonte, Schneiderlin and others went from L1 to PL), Sheff Utd are doing it now with a number of their squad. It's not impossible with the right strategy and key appointments in key positions. That's what I'll be looking for if this group take over, not how much dosh they spunk. I also think it's highly unlikely that Michael Dell will be investing much, if any, of his fortune in us but let's see.
