As I said, many will see it as postive. Personally, I don't think any of that can happen. Were we not one of the most vocal clubs in opposition to any idea of a super league, despite our owners. I could see us getting more exposure in the States and a few pre-season tours. I remember, when CPFC 2010 took over, it was clear that they did it just to save the club. The other thing that was clear was that they would not sell the club to a foreign investor that did not have the best interests of the club at heart, they said it and as far as I can see, 11 years on, they lived up to that. On losing the soul of the club, I don't think that anyone would be a fan or supporter and not be concerned about that. It is always a worry for a club like ours in the top flight. However, what I would say is, that it is the supporters that make this a "Community Club" not the owners. We have a long history and recently, we owe a lot to that protest outside Lloyds. Things like that set a tone and we we're also lucky enough to have fans with cash to save the club and since then we have kept who we are as a club together. We hope whoever owns the club, they get what we are about and love the club, not just run it as a commercial entity but the financial reality to being in the Premier League is foreign ownership. It's a global brand and as such, would not exist without global money. We can only hope, we get it right as a club, so it is a worry. I would always rather be the club we are than stay in the Premiership but I think on that scale, we are doing more than alright. Long may that continue....

I don't think that it works that way as you can't issue shares to the major shareholders without offering them to the smaller shareholders too Therefore you think % shareholding from all the shareholders will go to the new shareholder and the main 4 will hold less than 18% each? Thinking on this I thought maybe they’d want 3 to equal 51% to make decisions easier, although legally up to now all 3 had to agree. Those 3 totalled 54%.

With Textor's 18% valued at 87.5 mil, that means somebody reckons the club's worth 450 mil or more. There's no way it's worth that.

The Guardian report on this indicated "close to 18%" and seemed to be suggesting he was pretty much an equal partner along with the other 3. If the £90m figure is correct, I would have thought he would want to be treated as an equal partner for that kind of investment.

Good point Without doing any sums I suspect we may then be already relatively close to the limit on new funds available for transfers if a certain amount has been set aside for the stand. If we were indeed lowballing Blackburn for Armstrong at 12 million perhaps that is more or less what is left in the immediate kitty.

just to help with some numbers ANNUAL TOTAL WAGE BILL FOR Wickham £3,360,000 so just on those players, the club will have saved circa £28,560,00 a year in wages,If you look at the players that have come in it appears that their contracts have a higher element of pay linked to performances and appearances
