Going once, going twice, sold!

Lots of people panicing that we are selling up because we're broke BUT this article says that most chairmen want to step aside anyway. Interesting article though.

 

Its always the case, a board will come in look to make a profit or a bit of exposure and move on. Quite why they do it is beyond me. I can't see how anyone wants to gamble on a championship side but for our sake I am glad they do.

 

Mandaric is selling up at the Massive.

 

Problem is that any quoted prices (40 mill) are bonkers. Rumours elsewhere of Bernie Ecclestone, Noadsy and the like but they are no mugs whatever else we may think of them. We need a very rich idiot. Discuss.

 

Me and my dad were on about the 40m, they should try for 10m and save themselves 8m a year.

 

I think it was Mark Hulyer who once said that owning a football club was like holding your wallet upside down over an open drain - so a 'rich idiot' would be just the ticket.
