Yes, understand that. Just don't understand why people think Sisu are suddenly going to invest in the team. If they can make money from everything else the arena brings then why on earth would they make risky financial gambles on team affairs? Concerts bring in money. You can buy a 1m pound...

Course they would. But with Hoffman at the helm he would surely want what was best for his club too. He is a passionate City fan. He attends games. He supports the club. Sisu don't even seem to comprehend football.

Think some people just don't get it. You look at Roman Abramovitch, he is passionate about his club. Sisu are not passionate about our club. They can't even be arsed to attend games. Their remit is to make money for their investors and that's it. Why would anyone think they are going to invest...

But where do you think any profits are going to go? To the club or to the investors pockets? :facepalm: If Sisu owned all the arena and could make money from concerts and hotels and catering and all the other stuff, why the hell would they give two hoots about investing in the team?

I will be very interested to see what he has to say for himself if the backing is not forthcoming. Hope to god he isn't taken in once again and says that we were unable to bring players in, but that the club have said they have promised they will leave no stone unturned to bring in loans.

Platt will be prolific in League One. Only, prolific in Clive Platt terms is 6 goals.

Hmmm ... owned by a hedge fund ... Completely trust them to do the right thing for the club. :thinking about:

Not saying owt is right or wrong here, but how come no-one believed Keys and everyone all of a sudden believes Jon Gaunt? :thinking about:

Funnily enough, City play the odd Saturday.

i take you 125% and raise it by 10.

Surprised he didn't say 150% Tis Jon Gaunt after all.

Yep. If all this was happening then why oh why didn't he just keep his mouth shut. If this is all happening then what he said is bollocks.

£30m to own the stadium Not even 30p to buy players.

I am looking at numbers just be to be competitive rather than a promotion campaign. To be challenging, I agree, 10 players if not more.

Why should we believe Gaunty? He got an award once. We still haven't found where he stole it from. The offer has always been for 1/2 the arena and only half the arena.

Now!!! He said now. Doesn't mean who doesn't think Sisu haven't been absolutely shite.

Yep. That one is a puzzler. He seemed to change sides.

No way on god's earth are we going to get 10 players. Nor for that matter, 8, or even 6. I reckon if we do get any it will be 2 with possibly another 2 or 3 loan players. Ain't going to be anywhere near enough.

I did suggest pretty much the same earlier in the week. What if Sisu's money to buy the arena has come from Hoffman's investors. :whistle: Sisu always talked of co-investment rather than takeover. A deal could be done for later in terms of a takeover and Sisu leaving the club.

You have 7 gaps there. That perfectly fits in with my own and a few others' conclusions that we need between 6-8 players to make a fist of it in this division.
