eddie Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 It's a huge market - 20% of the world's population is Chinese - that's one in every five people. In our immediate family, there's me, the missus, daughter Rebecca and sons Li Soo Hai and James - five of us, and one of us, therefore, must be Chinese. Personally, I think it's James.

If so it would give them a 3 year boom or bust tbf, given the Chinese takeovers of a lot of clubs it would make a lot of sense to buy us with the infrastructure already in place. Dont really understand the rules but if I’m right it would appear a good time to take a club like us over. It's assessed over 3 year rolling periods,so every financial year participates in 3 different 3 year cycles, eg 15/16, 16/17,17/18; 16/17, 17/18 ,18/19; 17/18 , 18/19,19/20.

Ahhh I thought it could be something like that, cheers for clearing it up! In which case tho, the majority of our big expenditure came in 15/16 which no longer comes into the equation then after this year. Would therefore still be a reasonable time to invest then it would appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not pronounced Beige-ing. Its a hard J like Japan - it's Bei-Jing. Say it aggressively BAY-JING! Listen to your newsreader - they usually get it right. You're welcome.

Although our big expenditure came in 15/16, because of the £12m loan cancellation it'll probably be one of our better FFP years (£4m under threshold).
