    Despite saving our club I bet not many will grieve for the Allams when they go

    I like that Burnsy's 'exclusive' starts with "I think".

    Yep, usually things you think are exclusive.

    He seems like a top guy from the bio.

    Some people on here will be gutted if the Allams are replaced by someone like him.

    Allam seemed like a top guy when he bought us as well to be honest. Bio's are worth ****e.

    The wealth of new owners helps however the key is getting feelgood back in the club. Its fair to say as a rule the yanks understand the customer well

    A change in Heirachy, Is a positive , that reflects a fresh , modern, forward looking feel to the ongoings at the club. New management taking over from an old ' guard shows progress.

    I wonder if that includes the debt....sorry loan? If so they're only asking about £20m for the club, very reasonable to be fair to them.

    If we dont get a buyer at that price - if true - then we never will.

    So they admit there are talks on going but they won't confirm or deny that Grive is involved.
    That's an 'It's true but we can't admit it' then

    I suspect it will be more like £30m, which is a good return on their investment, particularly when you consider they've also had over £20m in interest and group tax benefits.

    Was the club budgeted to make a loss this season that's just finished ? That would add to the overall debt which in turn would reduce the Allam's profit.

    But didnt they pay £40m for the club? If they have banked £20m in interest on their "gift" then they've only - only - made £10m.

    Still, not a bad return on 3 years of been **** is it?
