Crawley are in serious danger of coming unstuck, their owners are more elusive than Ken Bates and even the manager Steve Evans has been done for tax evasion.
that's where you slip in the side door of the market and go through all the traders pockets while they aren't looking.
Our owners have already been investigated, the football league brought in new rules at the beginning of last season about people buying football clubs. They investigated our owners for 1 month, Sven did he own checks after what happened at Notts County. Your owners will have also been investigated before the brought you. If the fail the tests then the move will be blocked by the football league
I'm not gonna suggest Leicester's owners are dodgy, I don't particularly care. Please don't suggest passing the FA's fit and proper person's testing is any sort of guide though.
The rules got alot tighter last season. Our owners are worth over 4 Billion and they arent the only people investing into our club so we have no worries what so ever about where the money is coming from. At Notts no one knew who the owners where and then it turned out there was no investors just a load of hot air. We have seen our owners and the have put the brand across the whole of our club and they arent going to do that if they arent the real deal or else they would have alot of egg on their face
What is it they say about the Kings new clothes? (alright it's Emperors, but I'm using poetic license)
Leicester's owners are certainly the real deal, when we played them last season on New Years Day the team stayed where i work (got my photo with Sven ) and i ended up having a fairly decent chat with a few of the coaches as there was quite a bit to talk about with Nigel Pearson and Fryatt both making the switch, our new hot winger (Stewart) coming up against their prem quality RB (Naughton) etc. On top of that, one of the things a coach was telling me was how the owners sent the full coaching staff on an all expenses paid holiday to Thailand (unfortunately he didn't give any tabloid worthy stories up!) and although i'm not going to bore anyone with the details, it all sounded very impressive and the owners clearly have massive stature over there (police escorts and closed roads for any journeys they made!). Very unlikely to be crooked (though you never know)
Yes, I've got some images of Sven appearing after he'd completed his exhaustive investigation into the new owners! please log in to view this image
Just replying to say that Birmingham would get a -25 points deduction, if they go into administration thats a straight -10 points deduction nothing more, nothing less. There club are in no danger of doing anything else bar having a dodgy owner. Their owner passed the fit and proper test and its the PLs fault for putting him through if he is in trouble. Birmingham i doubt will get relagated. Leicester's owners have shown no reason to be fake, and i doubt Sven would fall for the same trick again after the Notts County fiasco.
Don't the owners of Leicester have ties with Shinawatra. I am sure I read that they had dealings with each other.
But isn't it true that, when Sven got to Notts County, he discovered that the budget for players was all smoke and mirrors? By contrast, Leicester seems to be bursting with money, hence the purchases that we find a tad laughable.......
