New owners?

  • Obviously they'd be a bit cleverer about it.

    Using a separate company of their own to sponsor our kit for £5m a season would be the way to do it.
    Or even letting a legitimate company sponsor us, yet the new owners actually fund 95% of the inflated level. (obviously nothing like this happens in any city around Manchester. Obviously)

  • Obviously I hope any new bidders will have a comprehensive and effective crisp acquisition and distribution plan or they will struggle to get my vote. (I have it on good authority one of previous bids may have fallen at that particular hurdle...)

  • I’m not convinced that that attempt at money laundering would be sufficient to confuse anyone.

    Just buy a casino.

    Not if dry cleaned.

  • @StrongestTeam like Trevor I think it is a joke that when someone at the level of a National League team has had a go but no-one at the top of our club has even tried to embezzle over £200,000. (waits for marlow and carrots enigmatic posts suggesting otherwise...)

    Bit of a "salty retort" @Wendoverman!

    @trevor you think the fact that our budget might be lower than a National League side being bankrolled by five or six multi-millioniare former players is unacceptable?

    Do tell which national league teams have rich owners

    He said: "It looks like we will have comfortably the lowest budget in League One and some League Two and National League sides will have a higher budget than us

    So our budget I s lower than accrington Stanley's then is a joke if our budget is lower than national league sides unacceptable.

    I have a suggestion Trevor. Get together with some of your mates and lead a consortium to take over the club. We would then have millions for Gareth to invest in the squad to cruise into the Championship.

    Well I doubt i would do any worse than the current lot least I like the club more than them.

    Biilericay' s owner is worth £45m.

    Didn't Steve Hayes have similar wealth to at and look how that turned out just because that owner has some money does not mean they will just waste it away.

    Trevor: Having less money than a National League club is a joke.

    Response: Why, if that club has multimillionaire owners and we don't?

    Trevor: Name one.

    Response: One.

    Trevor: Having a multimillionaire owner is irrelevant unless they waste their money on a football club.

  • @Trevor Salford city have Peter lim Malaysian multimillionaire and a bunch of ex man United players but all it's got them is three promotions and the conference play-off. I suggest they might have more money than us and it might not be unacceptable.

  • The Notts County owner is worth £55m, did them a lot of good Trevor!

  • Owners, eh?

  • I own a thousand shares in my football club...

  • Yes but it's offshore money and marlowchair/nicecarrots won't agree with it!?

    Hopefully not via money laundering!

  • Well I am in the Cayman Islands!)
