Hello All

Just joined, been following for sometime. Followed the lads for 35 years plus & praying we get this over the line as its worst position we have ever been in, if we dont get it over the line it might be our last chance of competing again

Would like to thank all those who post ITK info & obviously take it as it was given in good faith, also considering any information could fall through.

understand there are some right tools who have a go at this info, from my point of view i hope you keep posting what you hear.

this might be more a one for GOM, but no chance am i asking it over there. Lets say SD & whoever keep a % in the club like is being put forward at the moment. surely if new investors come in & put X into the club after they have purchased shares, SD & co will have to do the same to their equivalent % or their share % will decrease.

For us to return to the PL we would have to assume a lot of money will need investing, if SD & can afford to invest part of the way i just cannot see how they have enough to continue until we as a club are worth serious money.

especially if FFP came in & wanted to start what was mentioned by Smug last year with developing the surrounding area, how could SD chip his share in? without is share % dropping to nearly zero anyway.

unless of course SD has not though about this or thinks he is going to blag along the way without chipping in? serious investors / money men will not be fooled by that

ITKs any idea how this will work from what you have heard?

cheers

Good point.. almost posted similar earlier.. as far as I see it the only way that Donald's 5% stake will be worth as many shares by the time that it comes for the new owners to cash in, is if we make it to the top without any form of investment. He will almost certainly see some sort of dilution of his shares by that time if things go right.

It seems to me some people want a takeover to fail so that they can say na na na na na to @Prehab26 @Smug in Boots and @Magnus
I love reading any snippet. All we want is someone to run the club well and get us moving forward. I fall into the reasonably long suffering fan so just want some good news.
When SD came in I was taken in by the chat and the good feeling but the standard of the team and the lack of leadership has caught up with him.
Keep up the snippets. God knows we all need some positivity in these difficult times.

Out forwards have had **** all support for 3 bastard seasons. It’s no wonder they don’t score.
Our midfield is utter ****.

I can also think of one move in the pre season when Neil picked the ball up in CM and played an inch perfect through ball to Griggs feet who took one touch to control and another to put it in the back off the net.
There was more creative football from Neil in a split second than power has produced since the day he arrived.
Then although it was against Aston Villa U21s Scowen had more assists in one game than power has had in 2 years.
Yet he still plays nearly every minute of every game.
I have said this many times playing the wing back system we do is so easy for the better teams to defend against.
So thats when you need someone in the middle that is able to play that killer pass through the middle that splits through the defence.
No instead we get it in the middle and try to play a 50 yard diagonal ball out wide every time, we will never beat the better teams playing like this and if you don't beat the top teams you don't get promoted

People with vast wealth coming on board, current owners remain small shareholders, hopefully this way we all win, we get more investment into the youth team and first team and Donald gets to not have this as the biggest **** up of his life which I'd say this would be if he sold and walked away now.

I think I'd settle for that mind!!
