I'm pretty confident that he's passing on commercial interest from the loans not charging the club interest himself for profit akin to the Allams. The only way he gets his money back or makes a profit is when the club is sold after some degree of success - which I'm sure is the eventual intention, same as almost any other club owner.
Oh absolutely. I’ve been dubious about Acun since one of his first press conferences and he said something along the lines of ‘people love me’ I hope it was something lost in translation but I question anyone who wants to own a football club. But one thing I will credit him for is being prepared to sign young players and give people longer contracts. Under the Allams we rarely sold a player for a profit who signed after we last got relegated from the PL. They failed to speculate to accumulate and we paid the price.
Vaughan is very enthusiastic but he does not appear to have filled out much. He always gives his best which is to be applauded Loosely speaking he will come to City unless someone else comes in and offers him more.

God that’s hard to answer isn’t it. I can’t give you a name - but I can give you an idea of what sort of owner. Someone with a bit of money to help with cash flow - but who isn’t obsessed with pumping money in at all costs. Someone who knows that for a club like us to do well you have to build for the long term and invest in a good scouting network. I don’t mind a bit of an ego and confidence but I’d rather they have the intelligence to listen to experts in the field too, Brentford like maybe? Not sure how much money they’ve blown up the wall though so I might be way off with that. Anyway, I can dream.
