Would expect them to try and buy the club along with all the assets. The plan would be to achieve PL football using controlled financial investment combined with good football management and be prepared to take quite a few years if necessary. Just a cut and paste from Mel Morris's plan then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See how the land lies post covid, many clubs will have financial problems, the ffp rules may be changed, would expect new owners to top up revenues but in a controlled way, maybe not for a year or two, we'll see, it's a medium/long term investment in prospect.

Not sure about the term 'investment'. The old adage 'if you want to make a small fortune in football, start off with a large fortune', is more relevant now than it ever was.

With Mel apparently resigned to selling on the cheap it could be an outstanding opportunity buy DCFC. Covid hopefully getting under control fans back next season, superb stadium and facilities, well supported etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 This lot shouldn’t be allowed to bid for an English football club again - you can’t keep getting away with throwing money around which you don’t have, and disrupting football team’s seasons.
