Yes except we spent millions more in the summer so the narrative doesn't quite follow. Seems to be more that he's willing to spend as much as possible from transfers and commercials without having to put much in himself.
Any update on this @SaddlebrainsLeast we’ll finally get Jamie Paterson in
Apparently Sphinx have offered more money so it’s a no.Any update on this @Saddlebrains
Think it could be a case of because he’s training at sphinx there’s been a mix up
Complete get this and think it’s responsible. Think he’s finding out the cost of running a championship club.Exactly. We spent 13 million in the summer, with £0.00p income from player sales
Look at what's been spent. Over 45 million on players. Millions on Ryton, millions in upgrading the staffing, money spent on other things to bring us up to championship standard
The money we had from Vik and Hamer has gone. Doug to his credit is apparently funding the operating losses, but that isn't funding transfers, hence the external investment he has been after

You spelt Bellend wrongHow has this turned into a Musk thread AGAIN! Take it off topic you obsessive anti-Muskers!
P.S. The guy is a fucking legend
So the article in December was clearly bollocks. Whatever we bring in goes on the squad and infrastructure but because King is a millionaire not a billionaire if he tries funding much himself he'll go bust.Exactly. We spent 13 million in the summer, with £0.00p income from player sales

Also have to think about where we’d be had all the corporate packages not been raised price wise like they were (I acknowledge they lost some punters ) and the improvement in the merch on offer - I think as fans we’re doing our bit financially at the tills and tickets etc.Exactly.

Only if you believe the players we have bought are not worth what we paid. If they are the asset still exists.So the article in December was clearly bollocks.

It's nothing new or particularly sinister, but the way we have pissed through a once in a generation transfer windfall to end up with our worst performing team since arriving in this league would give any owner pause for thought. He's been had

Im
Not sure what our options were with the money we invested ….
The play off team had 3 tiers of player
superstar … Vik, Hamer ( possibly COH )
Loans …. McNally, Doyle, BNC,
Solid pros getting too old: Godden, Dabo, Kelly, Fadz
we sold tier 1 and had to also replace tier 2 and start the process of replacing tier 3 …..
Only if you believe the players we have bought are not worth what we paid. If they are the asset still exists.
I don’t remember you saying that when we signed all the players !!!!!Not spend it like it was going out of fashion.

I’d be interested to see how many of our new signings are in our top 15 - got to be 10 surelyIm a fan! I should not be in charge of the club I would make terrible decisions. I also don’t know Doug’s financial situation.
But breaking our transfer records and throwing £4m here and £4m there and leaving us no contingency was nuts.
I will be interested to see what they sell for when the occurs .I’d be interested to see how many of our new signings are in our top 15 - got to be 10 surely
I agree whole heartedly with a lot of that …. Just not the last sentence !Im a fan! I should not be in charge of the club I would make terrible decisions. I also don’t know Doug’s financial situation.

We will only know that based on the market interest.Only if you believe the players we have bought are not worth what we paid. If they are the asset still exists.
OMG, am I advocating for King shock. Surely, unless Top Deck Doug is completely useless, he will have staggered the deals over different financial years, added on achievements, promotions etc to reach the full fee.Exactly. We spent 13 million in the summer, with £0.00p income from player sales

We just need to be the sugar free versionYes. That's bad.
Don't want our players wearing a kit that looks like a tin of Red Bull. Don't want us wearing red. But if we stay Coventry City and our home kit stays some kind of Sky Blue then it depends who it is. Wouldn't like owners that are from certain countries.
But a few billion in the kitty would be nice.

For this club it certainly was.Once in a generation transfer windfall.
If they sell MVE, Sheaf and Wright you’re at the same kind of windfall again.
And this time you’re not left with expired loans and old pros

How about because he’s spending a shit tonne of money on a vanity space project when we have people starving and without homes on the planet we live on.
King out? Where have you seen that?Hilarious that some who were wanting King out because he wouldn't throw a couple of million here and there on new signings now if the above is true want him out for spending too much.
I don't get this argument, surely it's his money? I'm sure people could say that when we spend money on pointless stuff.
