Takeover Rumours

As an aside (and not trying to get ahead of myself but fuck it!) @Grumpy Old Man can you tell us what the crack is with the league one version of FFP? I'm sure I read that at this level the owners can give a gift to the club and it counts as turnover. Is there a limit to that? I mean, can they just gift £50m or whatever, massively improve our financial position, with no comeback if they felt so inclined?

Gifts are hard - they have to be irrevocable donations. However, increases in share capital are treated as if they were income in these circumstances. There's also a pitfall. Spending that on the squad would bring commensurate wage demands from the incoming players. Once promoted, we'd go back the PL/Championship loss limits, which also bring a restriction on capital contributions to losses. It's actually a balancing act to ensure that we don't increase wages to a level that brings excessive losses in the division above.
 
The blokes been a little bit busy this year what running for election. He has a lot of businesses and influence in Uruguay of course we should try and benefit from it

Of course Dr Death here knows best though.
:lol: And a fat lotta good that's done us ya drip.

I'll be happy enough with the mega rich 'muricans if it's all the same to you.
 
Not questioning you at all mate but do you think the Club / new investors are aware of what you have been doing on here (RTG is a massive conduit to supporters (despite the mags and idiots on here)) and have been more than happy for the little bits you have been given to come out?

I suspect I'm being 'used' a little tbh.

Not that it bothers me ...
... makes a change from being abused on here :lol:
 
I’m travelling around Europe at the moment and on my travels I met a couple of blokes from Uruguay.

They described Satori as a businessman who in the political primary pivoted to the far-right for support (and failed).

However, they also said that Satori isn’t viewed as a Uruguayan really. He apparently does no business within the country (all in the US or Europe), doesn’t live in the country or even visit before his election bid. Apparently this was something his opponents attacked him for.

I would suggest, based off this information, his contacts might not have been in South America anyway
Who knows marra. I just think you cant have too many billionaires on the board.

Aye not that it matters..they are clever people...just hoping for a mad few days now as it hopefully breaks! :)

But thankfully not a depressing drip.
 
They will invest and they will invest big. Do you really think these bloke want to piss about for years and years in League One and The Championship? not a f***ing hope, they wanna get to where the big money is and to do that they have to invest
Well I hope you're right but you may well be disappointed having such a massive, optimistic outlook.
