Lampards budget gone
Although they wont be poor once they get promoted the financial rules in the Championship are a lot different to the lower leagues. They won't be able to buy there way to the top in the same way as they do now.No thanks.
Football is more than winning trophies. I'd rather us have a proper identity.
Give it a few years and Birmingham and Wrexham fans will be desperate to return to their old, proper club. You already see fans of both clubs getting twitchy about things.
Joy sold him a pig in a poke.I was going to make a thread about this actually
Seemingly the investment he planned to bring in hasn't been forthcoming which has changed his outlook
He strolled in thinking this owning a club lark was easy, you could flog players for a huge profit most years rinse and repeat
When hes discovered that indeed isn't the case (remember, he himself admitted he know nothing of football) he's realising just how hard owning a football club is now the honeymoon period is over
So the club isn't up for sale in the greatest sense of the word, but he won't be here by 2028 I can 100% promise you, that may even be a lot sooner with how it's panned out recently
SISU? Disaster ? LolYou joke but that’s the kind of takeover that would be a bigger disaster than SISU. The guy is a fruit loop. He’d 100% throw a wobbler at the first sign of grumbling and fuck us off to playing in America just out of spite
MVE hasn’t been himself this season but he’s better than 46 year old Ashley Young. If he went there, it wouldn’t surprise me.Fulham and Everton after MVE
Would bite your hand off for £10mFulham and Everton after MVE

Lati costing us again ffs.Lampards budget gone
No worse than every other January window tbf

That wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world, it would allow us to somewhat return to what we were doing well but a bit more comfortableThere was an article in the national press last December time.
It surprised me that no one seemed to pick up on it.
The general thrust was Coventry had thrown money around but the money spent - especially on wages - was unsustainable and King had realised it.
More recently, you can see articles out there - the latest being in Leeds Live - that Coventry City’s financial problems are being acknowledged and Cov need to sell.
I would suggest a reasonable assessment is that City are now more likely to be relegated in the next say 5 years, than get promoted.
The high water tide was last season.
Is it bad to sell your soul for success? Of course lmaoGot asked the other day, say Red Bull wanted us (they dont) would you take the name change if they made us into a consistent top 6 Prem side that win trophies every other year
I said yes is that bad?
So lets get this right, the conspiracy theorists are now thinking that the only transfer this window will be Doug out new owners in because hes skint? 140 pages of absolute fucking bollocks to get to this conclusion, Admin close the thread the Skyblue world we inhabit is going to explode!

Yeah it was great when we went to Northampton and Birmingham. CluelessSISU? Disaster ? Lol
They did a pretty good job. Relegation was almost inevitable, given the mess left by Richardson and Robinson.
Two relegations followed by two promotions and a cup win and almost promotion back to the PL.
All this garbage about SISU being the worse owners City ever had is laughable.
Even if they were poor, that is nothing compared to what Robinson and Richardson did to the Sky Blues.
We went down the leagues because of them and climbed back up despite them. Similarly if Eustace takes Blackburn up it doesn’t make the Venkys great.SISU? Disaster ? Lol

Fulham would be a better move for him and they wanted him before. Also hell based in the capital.
We've had the international flavour, now we're getting the we're getting the British IST division improvers version apart from Bassette but it's only a hop to Belgium!The one thing I will give the bloke is that he will indeed leave us in a lot better state than he got us. Off the field at least. On the field not so much

Why does Musk have so many people licking his arse? Baffles meIt’s never going to happen in a million years but not wanting someone that rich in charge of us is complete and utter madness
Actually, I will correct myself. We went down the leagues because R and R had trashed the club completely.
Relegation to the old Div 4 was down to the state of the club

Just listen to Saddlebrains and GIMOC the rest are boring as fuckSo lets get this right, the conspiracy theorists are now thinking that the only transfer this window will be Doug out new owners in because hes skint? 140 pages of absolute fucking bollocks to get to this conclusion, Admin close the thread the Skyblue world we inhabit is going to explode!
You missed the bit about SISU alienating the fans before, during and after we ‘left’ The Ricoh. The utter shite they put the fans through during those years.SISU? Disaster ? Lol
