I agree. Only way that's happening is if we sell players for £35m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gj923 1,457 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 48 minutes ago, simplythebestest said: Your positive that will mean we break the financial fair play rules? There's a max deficit allowed which I think is about £25m (euros maybe). My understanding is that depending on how money is put into the club, that can count as earnings so an investment vehicle could allow us lots of headroom to invest. Think we are already close to the max with all the previous losses along with investment but given that we spend millions on lawyers this has probably not been factored in. Given the current situation anyway I don't think UEFA are going to be enforcing it was a lot of larger teams will possibly require a cash injection. Even in the past if FFP was to be breached all that happens is the club have to show that it is moving towards a break even. its only a few clubs that have continually ripped the arse that have been banned from european competition for a year NO CLUB has even been banned for a one off breach of FFP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, with the way the markets are going, it was probably worth 20 billion last week and now is valued at about the price of a multipack of monster munch.

He’ll buy King’s shareholding for whatever price they agree - obviously that will go into King’s pocket, not ours. He’ll then be part of the £20m share issue planned for the summer (not withstanding coronavirus impact) which will also include existing shareholders, 3 Bears, C1872, Woldhardt etc Can just imagine the boardroom section when kings shares are sold 🙄🙄 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEPPS BOY 73,890 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Under the circumstances i think spending money will be the furthest thing from anyones mind. It would be reassuring for fans if the fundraising did take place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the only way we will comply with FFP. Share issue/outside investment/loans won’t be allowed to be used on players or certainly not all of it. The football business will need to improve first, which includes profiting off of transfers. Which now clearly is the time to cash in on some for a squad refresh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's got that, plus money for the wage increase, welcome aboard. If he doesn't, can we please at least try and find someone who does? The time for fucking about is over. If I'm dreaming, so be it. But I wouldn't be selling to the first person interested if they don't have the funds required to actually catch up. If we're honest, plenty of players in this team need upgraded. 🤣 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malvern 11,329 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The SFA would never let him pass the fit and proper person test anyway, he has money. They were more than happy to let £1 white and dinky into the stadium though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
southcoastbear 1,639 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Someone with a property management background will be really beneficial for the club going forward as imo the club is nowhere near realising the potential from it's assets in this field Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
