So the rumours of F1 investment into the club are gathering. Seems like Doug is tapping up Ayao and Christian…

Christian the wealthiest out of the 2 and also has the Red Bull link.

The car livery will be the same as the home kit every season.

Instead of a whistle they will be a light system installed the match starts when the light goes green. Referee and assistants will be issued with various flags. Yellow to warn of incident. Red to stop the match. If there is an incident we can play on behind a safety player who will regain possession of the ball until the incident is cleared up.

I spoke to Horner two years ago - at a social event - and I joked that we were the only two Coventry City supporters in the room…

He looked at me blankly, and then explained that his Grandfather was on the Board many years before, so he has a defacto association, but it was clear he wasn’t a fan. He knew literally nothing about the management / squad.

So, at least in terms of Horner’s involvement, I would file this under nonsense…

Nothing in it whatsoever

Someones taken the fact Doug is trying to get investors in, and our 2 'most famous fans being Komatsu and Horner and made it up

I am a huge F1 fan and can tell you categorically that Komatsu / Haas don't have a pot to piss in in F1 terms

Horner, yes he has a decent personal wealth but nothing tantamount to being able to invest in the club. Also, Red Bull part own Leeds so rules and conflict of interest rule that one out entirely

Yes, Doug is after external investors but if anyone thinks it's F1 related then I'd like you to buy these magic beans I've got

Fair enough. Any idea who these investors are?

Someone mentioned Aston Martin the other day. I wasn't aware that their ideal target audience would be us. Perhaps j underestimate our fan base

Red Bull have a “minority” stake in Leeds. They also have stakes in RB Leipzig, FC Salzburg , New York Red Bulls & Bragantino. They are looking to invest in more global teams including English teams, preferably in the PL.

This is obviously complete fantasy lol. For so many reasons. Komatsu isn’t particularly rich. Horner slightly more, but red bull already have their teams, plus an involvement with Leeds, so it makes little sense.

Anyway, we don’t want to be called Red Bull Coventry do we

Leeds aren’t called Red Bull Leeds.

To be honest, personally I couldn’t care if it meant we had bags of cash, could afford to bring in top quality infrastructure all the way through the club and got back to the prem and played good football.

What's the exact opposite of a Smart car?

Because whatever it is, that's our fanbase.

If there is anything in it I assume it’s Haas

Haas are a huge American machine tools firm mainly focused on NASCAR in sport. They certainly have funds but focused on motor sport. Maybe Ayo could talk them into it with all the American investment in football.

Must be because it’s a minority because Salzburg are.

Bags of cash doesn’t quite mean what it used to be PSR but I get your point.
