Timing and closeness to Sisu mostly, for me the fact that’s he’s talked at length about the arena and seems to know virtually nothing about the club and has no clear plans for it.
I’m still holding out hope that it’s a bit of extra investment to get us further forward this season and beyond as Joy ran out of cash, but I’d like to hear a lot more about how this will affect things on the pitch.
I think you’ve hit upon something with the running out of cash point.
If Joy knew that CCFC could be “aggressively taken over / distressed” by MA who was clearly going to buy the Arena and then (according to Twitter Piggy and credible posters on here) fully try to buy CCFC then admitting you are skint isn’t sensible.
Not being able to afford HMRC bills and panic selling Hyam means “we is skint”
By having a bouffant “wealthy new owner with 25 mil in hand” it may give the impression of “we don’t need to sell cheap”.
Is this smoke and mirrors and a ploy to sell CCFC to MA but not at a knockdown price?
Just thinking that if DK had really wanted to buy Arena he would have gone with the right LC / proof of funds and a solid business plan. Surely one could have been knocked up quickly. Was this a charade to not buy the Arena but show that we have a few quid - “so don’t bully us Mike”?
Thoughts?
