BlueStar Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 The Bin Zayed Group is starting to look more and more dodgy to me to be honest, even if they do complete the take over it dosn't seem like they are the Man City type owners, not that we were expecting that but the fact that they couldn't complete the take over in time before Rafa leaves and Ashley starts selling our best players say a lot. And one thing this summer really showed is how fucking clueless the local journos are. Even if the next owners are shit - Ashley level shit - I don't care. I can't imagine they'll be in control for 12 fucking years, so if we need new shit owners to get rid of current shit owners, then we can try new tactics on the new ones, so be it. At least we're moving forwards through owners towards a day when perhaps we have a half decent one. They could be even more inept than Ashley, but I can't imagine anyone being more stubborn.

All they'd have to do is maximise our commercial revenue and actually invest the money we generate, and we'd be 100% better off than we are now. Nobody is asking for them to plough hundreds of millions into the playing staff, just spend what we earn and allow us to compete. I imagine most of us would be thrilled at that.

The sad thing is that should just be the norm for any football club and not a big deal. For us it would be a big deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 If MA doesn't sell this summer (and i thought he'd get max value for the club with Rafa at the helm) then I don't see how he'll EVER get 350m at minimum again unless he 1) renovates the stadium completely 2) invests 50-100m in the squad and 3) builds new training facility. At this rate his team is worse in quality than last year, his facilities are unchanged, and he has no world class manager to prop any of this up. Relegation will NOT mean he sells - it's happened twice and he's thrown a wedge of money each time to get back up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_69 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I hope they're just making preparations in case the takeover doesn't go through. That's seriously wishful thinking though. I think the minute they appoint anyone who isn't high calibre we have to assume the takeover is off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relegation will NOT mean he sells - it's happened twice and he's thrown a wedge of money each time to get back up. That's been my theory/hope since we were promoted last time round. He will never get more money for selling the club. Its all down hill from here on in as far as that's concerned and if it goes down hill enough it will mean he takes less and less out and eventually there'll be nothing to take out. The degeneration as already begun. Yet he's not going to sell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
